Is collagen cross linking still necessary after corneal ring segment inserts?
I plan to have corrective surgery for me keratoconus. Given the new technique of corneal ring segment inserts, I am wondering if this is just to reduce the effect but not to stop it completely. Or will collagen cross linking not be required to syop the further progression of my keratoconus after the ring inserts?
Is there a waiting list for DALK operations?
With the advantage and benefits of reversing and even potentially exchanging the corneal ring segment insertions, it makes it a very useful first step procedure to treat keratoconus.
However, in some cases, corneal collagen crosslinking with riboflavin has also been successfully combined along with the treatment method of corneal ring segment inserts.
To the best of my knowledge, you may still require corrective lenses after these treatments; to ensure limiting the deterioration of your vision and reducing the case for corneal transplantation.
Personally, I suggest that you speak to your ophthalmologist about DALK transplants. To the most extend, there has been a significant drop in the risk of rejection with this new technique known as a Deep Anterior Lamellar Keratoplasty, referred to as DALK.
Additional Details
The length for being on a waiting list for DALK operation will depend on the emergency of the case; availability from one region to another; varying between clinics & hospitals.
Best thing to do is to call and find out about it from all the clinics/hospitals that are close to where you reside or may travel as far.
Good Health To You!
