Posterior Keratoconus

Posterior Keratoconus This article describes the disease, treatment, and management of the rare disorder posterior keratoconus. Posterior keratoconus (pkc) is a rare, typically non inflammatory condition that is characterised by an abnormal posterior corneal curvature, which may be accompanied by overlying stromal opacification. it is usually congenital and can be associated with other ocular and systemic abnormalities.

Posterior Keratoconus Posterior keratoconus (pkc) is a rare, typically non inflammatory condition that is characterised by an abnormal posterior corneal curvature, which may be accompanied by overlying stromal opacification. it is usually congenital and can be associated with other ocular and systemic abnormalities. Keratoconus (kc) is a bilateral, progressive, noninflammatory ectatic condition in which there is conical protrusion of a thinned central cornea. patients experience significant visual impairment from the resultant irregular astigmatism and high myopia. Duke elder divided the developmental anomalies into two groups: keratoconus posticus generalis, in which there is an increased curvature of the entire posterior cornea, and keratoconus posticus circumscriptus, in which there is a localized paracentral or central posterior corneal indentation. Discover the causes, symptoms, and available treatment options for posterior keratoconus, a unique form of corneal disorder that affects the back surface of the cornea. learn about diagnosis and ways to manage this condition for improved vision.

Background objectives: to evaluate the associations between corneal topographic irregularity, higher order aberrations (hoas), and posterior segment structural and microvascular parameters in keratoconus using optical coherence tomography (oct) and oct angiography (octa). methods: in this cross sectional study, 81 eyes with keratoconus and 60 healthy control eyes underwent corneal topography. Posterior keratoconus is a rare, noninflammatory disease of the cornea with increased curvature of the posterior corneal surface. it is usually marked by nebular corneal opacity with posterior concavity and ectasia of the overlying stroma. Article describing considerations and approaches to cataract surgery in the setting of posterior keratoconus.
