Postoperative corneal remodeling after corneal allograft intrastromal ring segment (CAIRS) implantation for keratoconus: An OCT study
CAIRS is an effective treatment method to improve visual acuity and keratometry measurements and does not cause significant changes in graft thickness or recipient corneal epithelial and stromal thicknesses during the 1-year follow-up period. The observed correlations between SE, keratometry, and corneal thickness suggest that epithelial and stromal remodeling play crucial roles in postoperative outcomes of CAIRS.
