MyoRing Treatment for Keratoconus: DIOPTEX PocketMaker vs Ziemer LDV for Corneal Pocket Creation

Abstract

Purpose: To compare the results of MyoRing implantation for keratoconus using two different techniques for corneal pocket creation. Materials and methods: Seven eyes suffering from keratoconus were treated using Ziemer LDV for corneal pocket creation and seven eyes suffering from keratoconus were treated using DIOPTEX PocketMaker for corneal pocket creation. Results: Both groups did not show any statistically significant difference, neither in the severity of the disease nor in the results. Conclusion: Ziemer LDV and DIOPTEX PocketMaker give equal results for MyoRing implantation for keratoconus.
