Cambios tomográficos y de agudeza visual con implante de segmentos intraestromales en pacientes con queratocono intervenidos en una institución de salud visual en la ciudad de Bogotá, entre el año 2018 y 2019

Abstract

Descriptive epidemiological study of a series of cases, of patients with keratoconus, operated on with Intacts. The variables were visual acuity, corneal astigmatism, asphericity, corneal apex, and thinnest point of the cornea. An increase in K1 (0.67D) and a decrease in K2 (-2.32D) were evidenced, the apex showed a flattening of less than 1 diopter, while pachymetry and asphericity did not show changes. Uncorrected visual acuity improved more in the male population. The implant improves visual acuity without correction, demonstrating the effectiveness of the surgical technique by regularizing the shape of the cornea.
