[Intracorneal ring segments in keratoconus management].
Journal Français D'ophtalmologie 2021 June
Intracorneal ring segments (ICRS), used in the management of keratoconus since the 2000s, have enjoyed significant technological development. Various types of ICRS exist, whose arc length, thickness, and diameter can be chosen according to the desired effect on the spherical equivalent, keratometry and asphericity. Individualized implantation strategies, based on each patient's topographic and tomographic pattern, are constantly evolving. The surgical procedure is standardized, and complications remain very rare. Combined procedures (corneal collagen cross-linking and refractive photokeratectomy±topo-guided, phakic and pseudophakic intraocular lenses) are increasingly used and require a good knowledge of the effect of ICRS alone on the keratoconic cornea. The objective of this review is to summarize clinical practices used in the visual rehabilitation of keratoconic patients using the ICRS+- combined procedures.
