title: [Intralamellar bandage keratoplasty for the treatment of progressive keratoconus (draft report)].
abstract: The article discusses surgical options currently available for different stages of keratoconus. Indications and possible complications of each method are described in detail. So called intralamellar bandage keratoplasty, a new surgical procedure developed in the Research Institute of Eye Diseases and aimed at stabilizing the disease, is presented. Preliminary results suggest that the procedure is a promissing method for corneal thickness restitution and early stabilization of progressive keratoconus.
