Introduction: Keratoconus has a significant impact on patients' quality of life (QoL), from diagnosis to the advanced stages of the disease. The aim of this research was to identify domains of QoL affected by this disease and its treatment.
Methods: Phone interviews were conducted using a semi-structured interview guide, with patients with keratoconus stratified according to their current treatment.
Introduction: The main risk factors for graft failure in penetrating keratoplasty are well known. However, few studies have examined donor characteristics or more precise data on endothelial keratoplasty.
Materials And Methods: This was a retrospective, single-center study at the Nantes University Hospital, aiming to identify factors predictive of one-year success or failure of eye bank UT-DSAEK endothelial keratoplasty grafts prepared between May 2016 and October 2018.
Introduction: XEN 45® gel stent is an ab interno aqueous humor drainage device indicated for moderate glaucoma refractory to medical management. Its efficacy has been demonstrated in primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG). However, there are few studies on secondary glaucoma, including steroid-induced glaucoma (CG), defined as optic neuropathy induced by using local or systemic corticosteroids without increased flare.
