Purpose: To evaluate an original approach for treating corneal ectasia and irregular astigmatism secondary to penetrating trauma in a pediatric patient. Case report: An 11 year old patient had a penetrating trauma in right eye when he was two and the refractive error was +1.50 diopters sphere −6.00 diopters cylinder axis 95°. To correct irregular astigmatism, the patient underwent simultaneous transepithelial topographic-guided laser Central Corneal Remodeling (CCR) and Corneal Cross-linking (CXL) in the attempt to regularize corneal ectasia and to improve the quality of vision. Uncorrected and Corrected Distance Visual Acuity were measured using Efficacy and Safety indexes; objective and subjective qualities of vision were evaluated using respectively corneal morphological irregularity index and National Eye Institute Visual Function questionnaires. Conclusions: Twelve month follow up suggests that simultaneous CCR and CXL could be effective to improve the quality of vision and to halt the progression of post-traumatic ectasia in pediatric patients.
