Relevance. Every year the number of refractive operations to correct myopia is growing — the number of complications is also increasing. One of these complications leading to progressive vision loss is iatrogenic corneal ectasia. The purpose of the study. To analyze the effectiveness of rigid scleral gas-permeable lenses in patients with irregular corneal shape developed after refractive surgery. Material and methods. We observed 5 patients with various stages of keratoectasia, aged from 25 to 31, 4 of whom were men and 1 was a woman.All patients underwent ophthalmological examination: visometry, biomicroscopy, autorefractometry, keratotopography. Results. During treatment, patients complained of visual impairment in 5 cases, redness of the eyes — in 3, double vision — in 2. In addition, in 5 cases, patients complained of dryness, eye irritation and intolerance to eyeglass correction.To correct the irregular shape of the cornea, we used rigid scleral gas-permeable lenses.Scleral lenses correct irregular astigmatism of the cornea, resulting in increased visual acuity. Conclusions. Rigid scleral gas-permeable contact lenses in patients with irregular corneal shape are an effective method of correction, they improve visual acuity and reduce the progression of keratoectasia. A rigid scleral lens eliminates contact of the lens with the operated cornea, which reduces the risk of complications.
