The authors describe an unusual association between posterior keratoconus and iris atrophy, confirmed by a complete ocular evaluation, scheimpflug imaging and pachymetric curve. A hypothesis for concomitant findings is discussed.

Comparison of a Scheimpflug Camera and Optical Coherence Tomography in Evaluating Keratoconic Eyes Post Keratoplasty.
J Clin Med
January 2025
Department of Ophthalmology, St. Barbara Hospital, Trauma Centre, 41-200 Sosnowiec, Poland.
The aim of this retrospective study was to compare corneal parameters and compliance using a Pentacam HR-Scheimpflug (Pentacam HR) and a swept-source OCT Casia (Casia) in keratoconus (KC) patients post penetrating keratoplasty (PKP) and KC patients without PKP, as well as a control group. Pachymetry measurements were also analyzed using a spectral domain OCT Solix (OCT Solix), Pentacam HR, and Casia. The study included 71 patients (136 keratoconic eyes; group A), 86 eyes with KC post-PKP (group B), 50 eyes with KC without PKP (group C), and 52 control participants (104 eyes).

Introduction: Implantable collamer lens (ICL) is a posterior chamber phakic intraocular lens. It is usually indicated for high refractive error correction that cannot be treated by laser vision correction due to physical limitations.
Case Presentation: 39 years old male with a past ocular history of keratoconus underwent astigmatic keratotomy followed by crosslinking in both eyes a couple of years later due to signs of corneal ectasia progression.
Postoperative corneal remodeling after corneal allograft intrastromal ring segment (CAIRS) implantation for keratoconus: An OCT study.
Indian J Ophthalmol
December 2024
Department of Ophthalmology, Swiss Vision Eye Group, Istanbul, Turkey.
Objectives: To demonstrate corneal remodeling after corneal allograft intrastromal ring segment (CAIRS) with an anterior-segment optical coherence tomography (AS-OCT).
Design: A prospective observational single-center study.
Methods: This observational study included keratoconus patients who underwent CAIRS implantation into a stromal tunnel.

Ophthalmology Department, Faculty of Medicine, Sohag University, Almohafza St. Mailbox: 82511, Sohag, 82511, Egypt.
Purpose: To evaluate the clinical outcomes of implanting two symmetrical Kerarings via a femtosecond laser in grade three keratoconus.
Patients And Methods: This was a retrospective nonrandomized controlled clinical study. The study included one eye from each of twenty-three patients, all with Grade 3 keratoconus as classified by the Amsler-Krumeich classification.
Evaluating the safety and effectiveness of the sub-400 corneal cross-linking protocol: initial clinical and morphological findings.
Int Ophthalmol
December 2024
Department of Ophthalmology, Ankara Bilkent City Hospital, University of Health Sciences, Ankara, Turkey.
Purpose: To assess the safety and the efficacy of the "Sub-400 corneal cross-linking (CXL) protocol" for progressive keratoconus (KC) in ultrathin corneas.
Methods: The study included thirty four patients with progressive KC, who underwent CXL using the "Sub-400" protocol due to intraoperative thinnest corneal pachymetry ranging from 295 to 398 μm after epithelial removal. After the epithelium was removed, the following ultraviolet A irradiation was applied at a fluence of 3 mW/cm and the duration was adjusted based on the specific corneal stromal thickness.
