1st
Reported Case of Intacs for Keratoconus in United States - pioneered
by Dr. Brian in 1999 - In the first case of its kind in the
United States, off-label implantation of KeraVision's intracorneal
rings improved vision from 20/160 to 20/25 in the operative eye. |

Uses Published 2001 - Here's the latest on an advanced treatment
for keratoconus. |
|
|
Greek
and French Results - Intacs® can bring about
dramatic and stable improvements in the visual acuity of keratoconus
patients, according to results of a number of studies presented at
the 5th Winter Refractive Surgery Meeting of the ESCRS. |
|
|
KC
Sparks Interest of Researchers - While researchers look for
the keys to keratoconus, surgeons are trying quicker, safer refractive
alternatives to cornea transplant. |
Keratoconus is the thinning and bulging of
the cornea. Treatments include Intacs®,
Holcomb C3-R®, cornea
collagen cross linking, and if keratoconus
progresses to a serious level, cornea transplantation. Dr Brian Boxer
Wachler is a specialist in keratoconus evaluation
and treatment.
