Transient peripheral edema following displaced corneal graft after descemet stripping automated endothelial keratoplasty (DSAEK): case presentation.

Background: Descemet's Stripping with Automated Endothelial Keratoplasty (DSAEK) is constantly gaining popularity in the management of endothelial dysfunctions such as bullous keratopathy or Fuchs' dystrophy.

Case Presentation: A 36 year-old man with Fuchs' dystrophy underwent combined phacoemulsification and DSAEK of the right eye. Immediately postoperatively, corneal graft displacement and peripheral corneal edema which remained stable during the first postoperative month were evident on slit lamp examination.

Simultaneous topography-guided photorefractive keratectomy followed by corneal collagen cross-linking for keratoconus.

Purpose: To present the long-term results after simultaneous photorefractive keratectomy followed by corneal collagen cross-linking for keratoconus.

Design: Prospective, interventional, consecutive case series.

Methods: In this study, 26 patients (31 eyes) with progressive keratoconus were included.

Management of post laser in situ keratomileusis ectasia with simultaneous topography guided photorefractive keratectomy and collagen cross-linking.

A thirty-nine year old man was referred to our institute due to progressive decreased visual acuity five years after bilateral Laser in situ Keratomileusis (LASIK). Topography revealed signs of post - LASIK ectasia. Patients' left eye was treated with simultaneous Topography Guided Photorefractive Keratectomy (PRK) followed by Corneal Collagen Cross Linking (CXL).

Intraoperative pachymetric measurements during corneal collagen cross-linking with riboflavin and ultraviolet A irradiation.

Objective: To study central corneal pachymetric variations during corneal collagen cross-linking (CXL) treatment with the use of riboflavin and ultraviolet A irradiation (UVA).

Design: Prospective, noncomparative, interventional clinical study.

Participants: Fifteen keratoconic patients (19 eyes) were enrolled.

Simultaneous topography-guided PRK followed by corneal collagen cross-linking for keratoconus.

Purpose: To present the results after simultaneous photorefractive keratectomy (PRK) followed by corneal collagen cross-linking (CXL) for progressive keratoconus.

Methods: Twelve patients (14 eyes) with progressive keratoconus were prospectively treated with customized topography-guided PRK with the Pulzar Z1 (wavelength 213 nm, CustomVis) immediately followed by corneal collagen CXL with the use of riboflavin and ultraviolet A irradiation.

Results: Mean follow-up was 10.

Thin LASIK flap creation using the SCHWIND Carriazo-Pendular microkeratome.

Purpose: To study the outcomes of LASIK after intended thin flap creation using the SCHWIND Carriazo-Pendular microkeratome with the 90-microm head.

Methods: Forty-seven eyes of 26 patients (mean age 28.78+/-6.
