AIM: to conduct a comparative experimental study of the effect of the use of intracorneal implants during femtosecond laser-assisted intrastromal pocket (IP) and intrastromal tunnel (IT) formation on the strength properties of the cornea.
MATERIAL AND METHODS: The experimental study was performed on 24 corneas of 12 rabbit eyes enucleated 1 month after slaughtering. All eyes were divided into 6 groups according to the method of operation. IP and IT were created with IntraLase FS 60 kHz femtolaser. Group 1 (control group) consisted of rabbit eyes with intact corneas. In group 2 corneas, intrastromal tunnels were formed, in group 3 - intrastromal pockets, and in group 4 - intrastromal tunnels with 2 intracorneal segments (ICS). In groups 5 and 6, intrastromal pockets, each supplemented with an intrastromal ring, were created at the depth of 62-72% and 80% of pachymetry readings from the 5.0-mm optical zone, respectively.
RESULTS: Higher voltage had to be applied to stretch the samples from group 2 as compared to those from groups 3 and 6. Distribution of the Young's modulus of the test corneas agreed with voltage distribution in the study groups.
CONCLUSION: IP was associated with greater reduction in corneal biomechanical stability as compared with IT. Ring implantation into an IP yielded a more pronounced increase in the strength properties of the cornea than ICS implantation into an IT. The result was also more favorable at greater depths of intrastromal ring implantation.
