®VK Clinical Notes Cont’dMarch 2010VK reported that the left eye had improved again and she could see quite well now without a lens at all. Theleft spectacle refraction was now only -0.50DS but after trying no correction, spectacle correction and adisposable SiH contact lens, she felt most comfortable with the KeraSoft ® IC lens in place.Slit LampBoth corneas were clear showing no staining with fluorescein. Vascularisation in her LE was unchanged.Wearing time was now consistently all waking hours.The left lens was changed to reflect the corneal and prescription changes:KeraSoft ® ICLE: 8.00/14.50/STD/-0.50 VA 6/8 -1SummaryVK is a 32 year old female who underwent INTACs and CXL procedures on both eyes. The combined effectof these surgical interventions can result in corneal shape fluctuations that continue for many months. In thisparticular case, the left corneal shape has changed quite significantly over a period of 18 months. During thisperiod, KeraSoft ® lenses provided a valuable visual aid and considerably reduced significant photophobiawithout impacting adversely on the corneal shape changes or physiological health.Although vision fluctuated markedly during the post operative settling period, VK could continue for longperiods of time without needing frequent prescription changes.Differential Topography: Nov 08 (Lower images) – Mar 10 (upper images) showing the corneal changesproduced by the effects of INTACs and CXL that the left corneal shape in particular had changed significantlyfrom the pre operative topographies.RELEFinal KeraSoft ® IC LensesRE: 8.00/14.50/STD/-0.50/-6.00 x 60 VA 6/8 - LE: KeraSoft IC L: 8.00/14.50/STD/-0.50 VA 6/8 -1UltraVision International Ltd, Commerce Way, Leighton Buzzard, Beds, LU7 4RWUK Freephone 0800 585115 or +44 (0)1525 381112email: info@ultravision.co.uk web: www.ultravisiongroup.com
