Abstract

This study aimed at assessing the therapeutic decisions made by an individual keratoconus specialist in the last 10 years, to treat patients with keratoconus. We studied a case series and the descriptive analysis of individual cases treated by a single keratoconus specialist. Medical records of 636 patients totaling 1271 eyes were evaluated based on the therapeutic procedure used. For the treatment of keratoconus, the specialist chose expectant (only spectacles) in 22.3% of the cases, contact lenses in 39.3%, implantation of intrastromal corneal ring segments (ICRS) in 27.7%, cross-linking in 0.9%, and penetrating keratoplasty in 8.5% of the cases. The keratoconus specialist preferred noninvasive therapeutic options to improve vision quality, such as spectacles and contact lenses. Show the therapeutic preferences of a keratoconus specialist in order to compare with the daily practice. Carvalho N, Guerra TF, Moutinho CF, et al. Therapeutic Analysis in Patients with Keratoconus.

角质炎患者的治疗分析

本研究旨在评估圆锥角膜专科医生在过去10年中对圆锥角膜患者的治疗决策。我们研究了由一位圆锥角膜专科医生治疗的病例系列和个体病例的描述性分析。根据所采用的治疗方法，对636例患者共计1271只眼的医疗记录进行了评估。对于圆锥角膜的治疗，专科医生选择期待(仅戴眼镜)的占22.3%，隐形眼镜占39.3%，角膜间环段植入术占27.7%，交联术占0.9%，穿透性角膜移植术占8.5%。圆锥角膜专家更倾向于非侵入性治疗方案，如眼镜和隐形眼镜，以提高视力质量。显示圆锥角膜专科医生的治疗偏好，以便与日常实践进行比较。Carvalho N, Guerra TF, Moutinho CF，等。圆锥角膜的治疗分析。中华医学杂志，2019;8(2):40-42。
