RESUMO

Aim: The purpose of the study was to assess the efficacy of topographical and tomographical indices given by the Pentacam (pachymetric, tomopetric, and aberometric) in clinical and subclinical keratoconus (KCN) diagnosis. Material and Methods: In this observational analytic retrospective study, patients with abnormal findings in topography and tomography maps but with no signs on clinical examination (subclinical KCN group, sKCN), patients with clinical keratoconus (KCN group), and healthy subjects (Control group) were evaluated. Results: The KCN group proved significantly different (p < 0.001) values of the investigated parameters than the Control group. Eleven out of 28 investigated parameters proved significantly different in the sKCN group compared to controls (p < 0.001). Two topographic measurements, namely I-S (cut-off = 1.435, a large value indicates the presence of KCN) and CCT (cut-off = 537, a small value indicates the presence of KCN), showed AUCs equal to 1 [0.999 to 1]. Six other Pentacam measurements, including Back maximum keratometry (Back Kmax) proved to be excellent parameters for case-finding and screening. In distinguishing sKCN from normal eyes, Pentacam index of vertical asymmetry (IVA), inferior-superior difference (I-S) value, thinnest point (TP), Belin Ambrosio Enhanced Ectasia Display (BAD_D) and root mean square total (RMS total) performed best. Conclusions: In distinguishing sKCN from normal eyes, Back Kmax, IVA, I-S, and RMS total values demonstrated higher accuracy and utility. Six indices, namely ISV, IVA, KISA, PRC, RMS-HOA, and Back Kmax demonstrate excellent utility in case-finding and screening for clinical KCN.

RESUMO

Purpose: To evaluate the refractive results, visual outcomes and patients' satisfaction of a new extended depth-of-focus (EDOF) intraocular lens (IOL). Setting: Oculens Clinic, Cluj-Napoca, Romania. Design: Retrospective, single-center, observational study. Methods: 104 eyes of 52 patients undergoing cataract surgery with implantation of the Mini Well Ready EDOF-IOL (SIFI, Catania, Italy) were included in the study. Visual acuity at distance, intermediate and near was evaluated at 1, 6 and 12 months. Refractive results, contrast sensitivity, defocus curve and photic phenomena were also assessed. Results: The mean age of patients was 66.04±7.82. A significant reduction of the spherical equivalent and improvement of corrected distance visual acuity (CDVA) was observed (p<0.0001) after the surgery. All eyes obtained a CDVA of 0.5 or better at one month. All eyes achieved a corrected intermediate visual acuity (CIVA) of 0.5 or better and a corrected near visual acuity (CNVA) of 0.5 or better. At 12 months the spherical equivalent was within -0.5- +0.5 diopters (D). Conclusions: The EDOF-IOL offers good visual outcomes at distance, intermediate and near vision, providing an adequate contrast sensitivity and low rate of visual disturbances.

RESUMO

PURPOSE: The purpose of the present study was to assess the long-term efficiency and safety of the "epi-off" accelerated CXL (9 mW/cm2 for 10 minutes) in comparison to the standard "epi-off" CXL (3 mW/cm2 for 30 minutes) in terms of topographical and keratometric parameters, refractive data and visual outcomes at 7 years of follow-up, in progressive keratoconus. MATERIAL AND METHOD: A retrospective and comparative study was performed. A total of 183 eyes from 183 patients with documented progressive keratoconus were included in the study. The patients were divided in two groups: 93 eyes from 93 patients underwent "epi-off" standard cross-linking technique (3 mW/cm2 for 30 minutes) (S-CXL group) and 90 eyes from 90 patients underwent accelerated "epi-off" corneal CXL technique (9 mW/cm2 for 10 minutes) (A-CXL group). RESULTS: Improvements in uncorrected distance visual acuity (UDVA) were statistically significant compared to baseline values in both groups at each time-point visit (p=0.0421 at 1 year, p=0.0411 at 7 years for A-CXL and p=0.0375 at 1 year, p=0.0389 at 7 years for S-CXL). At 7 years there was a statistically significant increase in CDVA (p=0.039 in the A-CXL group and p=0.0343 in the S-CXL group at 7 years). Statistically significant reduction was noticed in Ksteep (p=0.0411 in A-CXL group and p=0.0224 in S-CXL group), Kflat (p=0.0198 in A-CXL group and p=0.008 in S-CXL group), K mean (p=0.0106 in A-CXL group and p=0.0193 in S-CXL group) and Kmax (p=0.0413 in A-CXL group and p=0.054 in S-CXL group) at 7 years, compared to baseline values, in both groups, but without any statistically difference between the two procedures, at all time-point visits (p>0.05). CONCLUSION: The long-term outcomes of "epi-off" accelerated corneal collagen crosslinking-UVA (9 mW/cm2 for 10 minutes) are similar to standard "epi-off" corneal collagen crosslinking procedure in the treatment of progressive keratoconus.
