Dear friends,
I´m from Brazil and here, before the graft, doctors try a procedure called ferrara rings implants, very similar to Inacts.
Well I´ve just had that procedure and i´m in recovery, I would like to know if anyone knows about Laser Surgey(PRK or LASIK) after ferrara rings implants?
Even without the rings, is there anyone with a PRK solution for keratoconus?
Bests

Hi

I would NOT consider any form of Laser or PRK until the Cornea neals totally and cornea stabilitses..which can take some 3+ months .......

Also, you are able to get good vision once stabilised stay away from these dubious procedures....

Dear Jera,

How are you today? Did the Ferrara rings improve your vision? By other words, were you able to see over 80% with Ferrara rings combined with glasses/soft contact lens?
This because I had UV-Crosslinking done but still my vision is only around 60% with glasses/soft contact lens and I would like to improve the vision.

Regards,
