To report on the use of the Nd:YAG laser corneal disruption in the treatment of infectious crystalline keratopathy.
Case report. A 52-year-old woman with infectious crystalline keratopathy unresponsive to topical antibiotics was treated with an Nd:YAG laser to the intrastromal crystals.
After Nd:YAG laser treatment, the infiltrate completely cleared within 4 weeks.
Nd:YAG laser treatment may be effective in disrupting the protective glycocalyx matrix within the intrastromal crystals, rendering the bacteria susceptible to topical antibiotics. This treatment should be considered for patients with infectious crystalline keratopathy clinically resistant to topical antibiotics.
报告钕:钇铝石榴石激光角膜切开术在感染性结晶性角膜病变治疗中的应用。
病例报告。一名52岁患有感染性结晶性角膜病变且局部使用抗生素无效的女性患者,接受了钕:钇铝石榴石激光对基质内晶体的治疗。
钕:钇铝石榴石激光治疗后,浸润在4周内完全消退。
钕:钇铝石榴石激光治疗可能有效地破坏基质内晶体中的保护性糖萼基质,使细菌对局部抗生素敏感。对于临床上对局部抗生素耐药的感染性结晶性角膜病变患者,应考虑这种治疗方法。
