Corneoplastique™ - Advancement in Lasik ? Good for KC?

Postby jayuk » Sun 12 Mar 2006 1:35 pm

Hi

Just thought Id post this link to some advancements in Lasik and mapping for corneas which may/may not prove significant to Keratoconus; at least in early stages

Thanks J

This might offer some hope to those of us who struggle a bit to find a consistent reading, post graft.

I am a bit troubled that the technique should have been trade marked, but I guess surgeons are in business these days, just like newsagents.

The tm may mean it takes tlonger to get here.
