Immediate sequential corneal allogeneic intrastromal ring segment transplantation and cataract surgery
Purpose
To report the combined approach of corneal allogeneic intrastromal ring segment (CAIRS) transplantation and cataract surgery in a cataract patient with corneal ectasia.
Case report
A 75-year-old male presented with age-related corticonuclear cataract, high myopia, and corneal ectasia on his right eye. After detailed discussion of treatment options, the patient wished to undergo a combined approach of CAIRS procedure and cataract surgery on his right eye. A femtosecond-laser (Wavelight FS200, Alcon, USA) was used to create a corneal pocket at mid-stromal depth and incision at 190°. Then, cataract surgery was performed with a 2.5-mm corneal incision, manual capsulorhexis, and phacoemulsification. A 3-piece intraocular lens (IOL) with a dioptric power of 0 diopter (D) (target refraction: −3.0 D) was implanted into the capsular bag. After cataract surgery, an 8-mm CAIRS tissue with 160° arc and 500 μm thickness was inserted (KeraNatural, VisionGift, USA) into the stromal pocket. Follow-up examination at 3-months postoperatively demonstrated improved uncorrected (UDVA) and corrected distance visual acuity (CDVA), topographic parameters, as well as high satisfaction rate.
Conclusions
Our case report shows that an immediate sequential CAIRS transplantation and cataract surgery may be a viable option in managing cataract patients with corneal ectasia.
期刊介绍:
The American Journal of Ophthalmology Case Reports is a peer-reviewed, scientific publication that welcomes the submission of original, previously unpublished case report manuscripts directed to ophthalmologists and visual science specialists. The cases shall be challenging and stimulating but shall also be presented in an educational format to engage the readers as if they are working alongside with the caring clinician scientists to manage the patients. Submissions shall be clear, concise, and well-documented reports. Brief reports and case series submissions on specific themes are also very welcome.
