Confocal biomicroscopic changes of the corneal layers following femtosecond laser-assisted MyoRing implantation in keratoconus

Our study demonstrated some findings similar to that reported in intrastromal corneal ring segments (ICRS): decreased central epithelial cell counts, highly reflective nuclei in the basal epithelium, transient disruption in the subepithelial nerve plexus, and normal endothelial cell count and morphology. In addition, a decrease in the central and peripheral midstromal, transient decrease in posterior stromal cell counts, and absence of amorphous depositions were in contrast with the findings reported in ICRS.
