  • IOL intraocular lens
  • Keratoconus is a progressive condition that develops in young people. Keratoconus causes a typical eye defect, which consists largely of higher order aberrations (HOAs). Only mild forms of keratoconus can be corrected sufficiently effectively in some cases with spherical and cylindrical prescription glasses. Keratoconus develops in young people who have relatively large pupil diameters. With large pupils, the amount of HOAs increases and visual performance decreases. Uncorrected HOAs negatively affect contrast sensitivity.
  • HOAs higher order aberrations
  • Corneal Cross-linking is a surgical procedure on the cornea, which strengthens the cornea; this can prevent further progression. Keratoconus is best corrected with hard contact lenses, for which you can choose from different lens types. Contact lens intolerance to hard contact lenses causes visual difficulties in functioning in daily activities. Temporary contact lens intolerance is common in keratoconus during seasonal episodes of allergic reactions. However, the visual performance of soft contact lenses, which can also be performed with aberration correction, is less effective than hard contact lenses and the correction of this type of contact lens is adversely affected by the necessary dexterity for a good fit.
  • the optical eye defect of keratoconus can also be corrected surgically with corneal intra-stromal rings.

  • the thinness and associated instability of the cornea in keratoconus make the results of surgical procedures undesirable, uncertain or undone. This makes it better to have the option of optical correction for keratoconus with an IOL.

  • An IOL will have to have an optically very complex structure to be sufficiently effective to meet the visual needs of the keratoconus patient.
  • Keratoconus causes difficult-to-correct LOAs, HOAs and glare, often deficient in visual performance without contact lens correction.
  • Large pupil diameters in young keratoconus patients cause greater amounts of HOAs that are unfavorable for visual performance under mesopic conditions.
  • Stray light nuisance reduces the contrast, which in combination with HOAs can lead to dangerous situations not only during the day, but especially in the evening in traffic.

Abstract

Lors de la fabrication d'une paire de lentilles pour améliorer les performances visuelles chez des patients présentant un kératocône (une lentille inclut ici une lentille de contact, une lentille intraoculaire et un verre de lunettes), les étapes suivantes sont effectuées pour chaque œil : déterminer au moyen de la réfraction subjective la lentille classique la plus efficace, avec une puissance sphérique et cylindrique égale sur toute la zone optique antérieure, déterminer par réfraction subjective des paramètres optiques optimaux pour une seconde zone optique appliquée à la première zone optique, le patient n'ayant pas besoin de tenir sa tête dans une position spécifique, lesdits paramètres optiques étant constitués de la forme, la taille, la valeur et le tracé de la force et la position sur la première zone optique, fabriquer une lentille pourvue d'une première et d'une seconde zone optique telles que déterminées ci-dessus, et répéter la détermination de paramètres optiques optimaux pour la seconde zone optique au moyen d'une réfraction subjective avec la lentille insérée ou devant celle-ci, et produire une lentille adaptée lorsque des paramètres optiques déviants sont trouvés. Puis, dans ou pour chaque œil, l'une des lentilles fabriquées est soit présentée soit insérée, et avec les deux yeux regardant, la détermination subjective de la réfraction de paramètres optiques optimaux est répétée pour les secondes zones optiques pour chaque œil. Ensuite, un ensemble de lentilles finales ayant une première et une seconde zone optique telles que déterminées ci-dessus est fabriqué.
