| PubMedID- 25874116 | In conclusion, the results of toric icl implantation 6 months after cxl at 1 year and at 2 years compare to the outcomes at 6 months in a previous study; it is an effective and safe method of improving visual acuity and refraction in keratoconus eyes with high myopia and astigmatism and good best corrected visual acuity. |
| PubMedID- 26253458 | Corneal collagen cross-linking followed by phacoemulsification with iol implantation for progressive keratoconus associated with high myopia and cataract. |
| PubMedID- 21366205 | Combined cross-linking treatment and posterior chamber toric phakic collamer lens implantation in a two-step procedure seems to be an effective method for correcting keratoconus in patients with high myopia and astigmatism. |
| PubMedID- 21854565 | Intrastromal corneal ring segments (intacs, keravision, inc., fremont, ca, usa), which have been approved for the treatment of myopia and astigmatism associated with keratoconus, are two tiny half rings made of polymethyl methacrylate 1. |
| PubMedID- 23925325 | Sometimes high myopia is associated with keratoconus and scl are useful in these patients. |
| PubMedID- 23496020 | Conclusions: in selected severe keratoconus cases with high myopia and steep keratometry previously treated with intacs implantation, if significant residual refractive error is observed, secondary implantation of myoring over intacs may improve vision and refraction. |
