How to Perform CAIRS - A Guide For Surgeons

CAIRS is a revolution in the treatment for Keratoconus. This procedure can potentially provide amazing visual results for patients and is often an alternative to penetrating keratoplasty.


Attached is a PDF document with a stop-by-step explanation of the procedure. I have also linked a YouTube video showing the steps. I hope this is a useful resource for surgeons looking to start CAIRS for keratoconus.

At QEI we regularly host surgeons from around the world so that they can learn more about CAIRS techniques. Please get in touch via email if you would like to come and join me for a CAIRS list.
