Abstract

Keratoconus is a common non-inflammatory, bilateral progressive corneal dilatation disease, often leading to progressive thinning of the corneal stromal layer, the central region of the cornea is conical, clinical manifestations of high myopia and irregular astigmatism, The normal life of the patient is greatly inconvenient. Therefore, timely and effective treatment is extremely important to improve the visual quality of patients and their physical and mental health. In the early stage of the patient, vision correction can be performed by wearing a frame mirror or a contact lens; as the lesion progresses, the former is insufficient for correction, and corneal stroma implantation, corneal collagen cross-linking, and keratoplasty are feasible. Numerous studies have confirmed that this treatment can effectively improve and maintain the visual quality of patients. In recent years, new treatment methods such as matrix regeneration, matrix lens transplantation and scleral mirror have gradually become research hotspots at home and abroad. This article reviews the current major treatments for keratoconus and its new developments.
圆锥角膜治疗的现状及研究新进展
圆锥角膜是一种常见的非炎性、双侧进行性角膜扩张性疾病,常导致角膜间质层进行性变薄,角膜中心区域呈圆锥形,临床表现为高度近视和不规则散光,给患者的正常生活带来极大不便。因此,及时有效的治疗对于提高患者的视觉质量和身心健康至关重要。在患者早期,可以通过佩戴镜框镜或隐形眼镜进行视力矫正;随着病变进展,前者已不足以矫正,角膜基质植入、角膜胶原交联、角膜移植术是可行的。大量研究证实,这种治疗可以有效地改善和保持患者的视觉质量。近年来,基质再生、基质晶状体移植、巩膜镜等新的治疗方法逐渐成为国内外的研究热点。本文综述了目前圆锥角膜的主要治疗方法及其新进展。
