Eligibility
Inclusion criteria
Inclusion criteria: - Keratoconus - ectasia after refractive surgery - high astigmatism after penetrating keratoplasty These patients could not tolerate glasses or contact lens for refractive correction, so they underwent femtosecond laser-assisted intrastromal corneal ring segment implantation. They had been followed for at least 1 year postoperatively. They must also have corneal topography from pentacam at 1 year.
Exclusion criteria
Exclusion criteria: Patients as stated in the inclusion criteria but had no information about corneal topography from pentacam
