Journal ArticleDOI
A review of keratoconus: Diagnosis, pathophysiology, and genetics.
TL;DR: The current evidence for keratoconus' complex genetics is reviewed and the presently identified genes/loci and potential candidate gene/ loci are evaluated.
Journal ArticleDOI
A randomised, prospective study to investigate the efficacy of riboflavin/ultraviolet A (370 nm) corneal collagen cross-linkage to halt the progression of keratoconus
TL;DR: Corneal collagen cross-linkage appears to be an effective and safe modality to halt the progression of keratoconus and improvements in visual and topographic parameters are seen in some eyes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Corneal optical aberrations induced by photorefractive keratectomy.
Katherine M. Oliver,Richard P. Hemenger,Melanie C. Corbett,David P.S. O'Brart,Seema Verma,John Marshall,Alan Tomlinson +6 more
TL;DR: Corneal modulation transfer function calculations suggest that a significant loss of visual performance should be anticipated following photorefractive keratectomy, the effect being greatest for large pupil diameters.
Journal ArticleDOI
A long-term study of photorefractive keratectomy; 12-year follow-up.
Madhavan S. Rajan,Philip D. Jaycock,David P.S. O'Brart,Helene Hamberg Nystrom,John C. Marshall +4 more
TL;DR: In myopic PRK, refractive stability achieved at 1 year was maintained up to 12 years with no evidence of hyperopic shift, diurnal fluctuation, or late regression in the long term.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Effects of Ablation Diameter on the Outcome of Excimer Laser Photorefractive Keratectomy: A Prospective, Randomized, Double-Blind Study
TL;DR: Treatment with 6.00-mm ablation diameters precipitated less initial overcorrection, greatly improved the predictability of photorefractive keratectomy, and was associated with a reduction in complications impairing postoperative visual performance.
