Bruce Grene, MD • Peter Hersh, MD • David Hardten, MD
Conductive Keratoplasty Features • Treats hyperopia, astigmatism, presbyopia and over/under LASIK corrections • Induces permanent collagen shrinkage • Creates a column of treatment • Utilizes cornea’s conductive properties
The Keratoplast™ tip (90 µm wide, 450 µm long) with coated stop at the distal end(shown next to a 7-0 suture)
Study Objective • US FDA Phase III Study • 400 Patients • Spherical hyperopia 0.75 D to 3.00 D • < 0.75 D of cylinder • No prior refractive surgery • No significant ocular/physical history • 24 Month Follow-Up
Simple Procedure • Instill topical anesthesia • Insert lid speculum (return path for energy) • Mark eye • Apply treatment Total time less than 5 minutes

Summary of Phase III Study • Highly effective • comparable to H-LASIK • Stability at 6 months • Safe – low rate induced cylinder • Penetration depth confirmed by histology, confocal microscopy
Summary of Phase III Study • Topography shows central corneal steepening with mid-peripheral flattening • Visual axis spared • Multicenter study continues for two years
