RESUMEN
The introduction of early diagnostic methods for keratoconus into clinical practice has become the basis for the development of surgical treatment techniques for this pathology, such as corneal collagen crosslinking and interlamellar keratoplasty with implantation of intrastromal segments. The article analyzes the results of research by Russian and foreign specialists in these areas and presents the data on the combination of SMILE surgery and corneal crosslinking, the Rome protocol of corneal crosslinking, modifications of interlamellar keratoplasty, the use of femtosecond laser technologies, and some pilot studies. Modern requirements for ophthalmological care require a personalized approach to each patient, and therefore the surgeon should have a wide range of surgical methods of treatment applicable to different patient cohorts. The described methods of treatment, according to the authors, are the most promising.
