Refractive Plan

Intacs

ICRS

Intrastromal Corneal Ring Segments (ICRS)

  • FDA approved 2004 (originally designed for low levels of myopia)
  • Mild to Moderate Keratoconus
  • Option for pt's who can no longer see adequately with glasses or CL alone
  • Possible alternative for pt's requiring a corneal transplant
  • Clear, crescent shaped device made of plastic polymer
  • Reshape the cornea by thickening the periphery to flatten the center into a more dome-like shape, can also reposition the cone centrally
  • Round cross section helps to minimize glare

Topography

Clinical Info

  • Typically gain >/= 2 lines BCVA
  • Still need correction through Spectacles, Specialty CL
  • Designed for permanent placement, can be removed or replaced if necessary
  • Possible slowing of progression
  • Recommendations: >/= 21yo, Clear Central Corneas, Corneal Thickness 450um (incision site)
  • Contraindications: Collagen Vascular/Autoimmune Disease, Pregnant/Nursing, RCE/Corneal dystrophy

Clinical Pearls

  • Complications: Infection, Difficulty with night vision
  • Check for NV, Edema, Scarring

  • Usefulness of Monovision

  • Incorporation of ICRS as a possible treatment option for KCN
