Cornea II: Refractive surgery and keratoconus
My Session Status
At the end of this session, participants will be able to:
- To review how to optimize the use corneal diagnostics to detect corneal ectasia.
- To review rare complications after crosslinking and outcomes of custom corneal allogenic stromal ring segments.
- To review options for refractive correction of high myopia and keratoconus patients with cataract.
- To develop strategies to enhance patient interactions and to optimize the ocular surface in refractive surgery.

Its management includes medical and surgical treatment. Corneal crosslinking (CXL) is being increasingly used to stabilize the condition. Macular phototoxicity is a well-known side effect of light exposure; however, its incidence afte...
