Development of a Web-Based Algorithm for Understanding the Intraocular Lens-Based Surgery in Stable and Progressing Keratoconus for Non-Specialist Ophthalmologists

CONCLUSION: We present an algorithm as a guide for lens-based surgery in stable and progressing keratoconus, which is classified based on cone location. This algorithm will help trainee and "non-specialist" ophthalmic surgeons understand the pre-operative planning for the surgery and referral to the "specialist" corneal surgeon, considering factors such as progression, BSCVA, keratometry, topography and apex location of the cone in keratoconus patients.PMID:37870048 | DOI:10.1080/02713683.2023.2270727
