INTRODUCTION: Keratoconus is described as a degenerative bilateral, progressive, noninflammatory corneal disorder characterized by ectasia, thinning, and increased curvature. Keratoconus progression classification 1 year after performed crosslinking method in this study is based on the ABCD keratoconus grading system.
AIM: To evaluate the possible keratoconus progression one year after performed a crosslinking (CXL) method based on the ABCD keratoconus grading system. Methods: Seventeen keratoconus patients (22 eyes) were included in this prospective study. CXL procedure was performed using the standard Dresden protocol at Eye Clinic Svjetlost Sarajevo with the inclusion period from January 2017 to January 2018. Twelve patients had monocular, and 5 patients had binocular treatments with follow up of 12 months. Preoperative and postoperative stages were compared using the ABCD keratoconus grading system measured on rotating Scheimpflug corneal tomography-based machine - Pentacam (Pentacam HR, Oculus Optikgeräte GmbH, Wetzlar, Germany).
RESULTS: Out of 22 eyes, one eye had keratoconus stage I-II, 6 eyes had stage II, 4 eyes had stage III, and 9 eyes had stage III-IV. There was no statistically significant gradient change of keratoconus in comparison to one month after the surgery, p>0.05. There was no progression of the gradient when comparing to the preoperative stage.
CONCLUSIONS: Corneal cross-linking could effectively stabilize the progression of keratoconus, as assessed by key corneal topographic parameters. Analyzing the trend of stage change in 12 months follow up after the crosslinking procedure of keratoconus patients there was no progression of a gradient in comparison to the preoperative stage. According to our results, we can conclude that CXL is a safe and effective procedure in treating keratoconus.
