Keratoconus is an ectasia that affects the shape and thickness of the cornea, resulting in loss of visual acuity and consequently the life quality of the patients, due to the loosening of collagen fibrils of the stroma. Some treatment methods are useful for the correction of refractive errors, but have no apparent effect on disease progression. A potential treatment for keratoconus, which…
In recent decades the application of physical and chemical concepts has led to the development of possibilities of structural changes aimed at greater efficiency and security procedures as the remodeling of the cornea. In keratoconus, the cornea acquires a cone shape due to loosening of the collagen fibrils of the stroma. Some treatments useful in correcting refractive errors show no appa…
Keratoconus is a non-inflammatory eye disease that affects the shape and thickness of the cornea, resulting in loss of visual acuity and hence quality of life. In this disease, the cornea acquires a cone shape due to the loosening of collagen fibrils. Some treatments are useful in the correction of refractive errors, but without effect on disease progression. The crosslinking procedure us…
