IC-105 - 2 decades of Corneal Cross-Linking: Current Indications, < Applications, Outcomes and complications-management; The US, FDA-approved technique and evolving technology and techniques.
L Saturday, April 6, 2024
• 8:00 AM - 9:30 AM
• BCEC - Meeting Level I, Room 156AB
08:00-8:30: Cornea Diagnostics
• Introduction to current cornea diagnostics and their relative differences: Placido Topography, Scheimpflug tomography, Anterior segment OCT, LED color reflection topography
• Corneal epithelial mapping and its clinical relevance in diagnosis and treatment
• Basic principles in employing topography data (Scheimpflug based and/or Placido-based) in the customization of an excimer corneal ablation.
Overview and case presentations with the Wavelight, Schwind and Ivis platforms
• Topography astigmatism, centroid and angle kappa considerations for possible revision of the clinical refraction used in each ablation
8:30-9:00: Customized Treatments
• Topography customized methodology for virgin myopic and hyperopic eyes. Practice hands-on on the workshop laptops
• Topography customized methodology for irregular corneas (previously treated: RK, decentered and/or irregular ablations, as well as irregular and ectasia cases). Practice on-site, hands-on
• Anticipating asphericity and sphere compensatory nomograms for better spherical correction and emmetropia.
• Participants will gain advance access online to over 200 cases examples (pre-op data, treatment design, treatment video, postop data and overview of successful and even problematic cases)
• Complications assessment and management
9:00-9:30: “Wet-lab” hands-on treatment designing
• Each participant will have the chance to design several treatments on site from pre-loaded material, or bring their own cases to load!
