Abstract
KERATOCONUS(KC) MANAGEMENT IS AN EVER EVOLVING FIELD. TRADITIONALLY, KC HAS BEEN DIAGNOSED WITH TOPOGRAPHY AND MANAGED BY CROSSLINKING(CXL), PENETRATING KERATOPLASTY, OR ANTERIOR LAMELLAR KERATOPLASTY. RECENT TRENDS HAVE SEEN ADVANCES IN THE DIAGNOSTIC MODALITIES AND TREATMENT OPTIONS FOR KC. WE START BY A TALK ON THE RECENT ADVANCES OF CORNEAL IMAGING IN KC, FOLLOWED BY THE ROLE OF BIOMECHANICS AND EPITHELIAL MAPPING IN EARLY DIAGNOSIS. THIS IS FOLLOWED BY DELVING INTO THE ADVANCES OF CXL IN THIN CORNEAS DESCRIBING THE DIFFERENT TECHNIQUES FOR THE SAME. SHIFTING GEARS INTO THE SURGICAL OPTIONS, WE PROCEED TO DISCUSS THE ROLE OF STROMAL KERATOPHAKIAS IN AVOIDING KERATOPLASTIES. FINALLY, THE ROLE OF BOWMAN’S LAYER TRANSPLANT IN IMPROVING OUTCOMES OF VISION AND BIOMECHANICS IN KC.
