AWARD LECTURESR. TOWNLEY PATON AWARD LECTUREWell-Behaved Women Seldom Make History:The Advancement of Women in OphthalmologyJennifer Li, MD, University of California, Davis/Sierra Donor Services Eye Bank2021 R. Townley Paton Award RecipientApproximately 150 years ago, Isabel Hayes Chapin Barrows became the first woman to practiceophthalmology in the United States. Since that time, women have made tremendous strides withinophthalmology. During this year’s Paton Lecture, we will celebrate the pioneering women who havehelped pave the way for us, and reflect on how far we have come in our efforts to break down the gendergap. We will also explore areas where further progress is still needed for women in ophthalmology.RICHARD TROUTMAN PRIZE LECTUREAccelerated Epi-On Versus Standard Epi-Off CornealCollagen Cross-Linking for Progressive Keratoconus inPediatric Patients: Five Years of Follow-Up*Maria A. Henriquez, MD, MSc, PhD, Oftalmosalud Instituto de OjosCo-Authors: Gustavo Hernandez-Sahagun, MD, Jorge Camargo, MD, and Luis Izquierdo, Jr, MD, MSc, PhDPurpose: The purpose of this study was to evaluate and compare the 5-year efficacy and safety ofaccelerated transepithelial (A-epi-on) corneal collagen cross-linking (CXL) with standard CXL (epi-off) inchildren with progressive keratoconus (KC).Methods: This prospective cohort study included 78 eyes of patients aged 18 years old or younger withprogressive KC who underwent CXL at the Oftalmosalud Institute of Eyes, Lima, Peru. A-epi-on CXL wasperformed in 32 eyes (309 of impregnation/59 of irradiation at 18 mW/cm2) and epi-off CXL was performedin 46 eyes (309of impregnation/309 minutes of irradiation at 3 mW/cm2). Visual acuity, refraction, and theScheimpflug imaging parameters were evaluated preoperatively and postoperatively at 1 and 5 years.Results: The best corrected visual acuity improved to 0.06 logarithm of the minimum angle of resolution(SD: 0.19, P 0.03) and 0.09 logarithm of the minimum angle of resolution (SD: 0.13, P, 0.001) in the A-epion and epi-off groups, respectively. The mean flattening in the mean keratometry was 0.09 diopters (D)(SD: 0.68, P 0.33) and 3.18 D (SD: 5.17, P, 0.001) in the A-epi-on CXL and Epi-off groups at the 5-yearfollow-up. Significant differences were found in the change at 1 and 5 years between the groups forcylinder reduction, flat and mean K, and pachymetry (all P, 0.05). The KC progression rate was 9.37%(3/32) in the A-epi-on CXL; no progression was found in the epi-off CXL group at the 5-year follow-up.Conclusions: Both procedures halted the progression of KC at the 5-year follow-up; however, epi-offCXL was safer and more effective when compared with A-epi-on CXL.*Originally published in Cornea Volume 39, Number 12, December 2020NEW ORLEANS, LAFRIDAY, NOVEMBER 12FORUM 2021

SCIENTIFIC ABSTRACT8:51 am – 9:02 amTopical Ivmed-80 Eyedrops for Pharmacologic Crosslinking of Keratoconus without UV Lightor SurgeryBalamurali Ambati, MD, PhD, Pacific Clear Vision InstituteCo-Authors: Sarah Molokhia, PhD; Hironori Uehara, PhD; Arturo Chayet, MD; Cynthia Roberts, PhD; Sabine Kling, PhD;and Farhad Hafezi, PhDPurpose: To determine whether IVMED-80 eyedrops, which increase lysyl oxidase, can flatten the cornea in patientswith keratoconus.Methods: Pre-clinical IVMED-80 studies determined if it increased LOX activity of keratoconic fibroblasts and rabbitcorneas, improved human donor and rabbit corneal biomechanics, and flattened rabbit corneas. A Phase 1/2aprospective, randomized, double-masked, controlled trial was performed to determine the safety and preliminaryefficacy of BID dosing of IVMED-80 eyedrops ind 36 patients with a history of progressive keratoconus, between18 to 42 years of age. Three subarms included vehicle control, 6 and 16 weeks of therapy, with 6 months follow-up.Endpoints included Kmax, BCVA, endothelial cell count, IOP, and adverse event analysis.Results: IVMED-80 increased LOX activity of fibroblasts 4-fold, and flattened rabbit corneas by 1.8 diopters with 6weeks of treatment. Four month clinical trial follow-up data is currently available. In patients (mean age of 27.3 /- 6.8years), we observed flattening of Kmax by 1.0 diopters in the 16 week therapy group, while the 6 week therapy grouphad initial flattening of 0.40 diopters at 1 month, but rebounded to baseline by month 4. Vehicle-treated patientsdemonstrated continued progression. No significant changes on BCVA, endothelial cell count, or IOP were observed.No adverse events were observed.Conclusion: IVMED-80 induces pharmacologic crosslinking by delivering copper to increase corneal LOX, whichgenetic and biochemical studies show is reduced in keratoconus. We demonstrate improved donor and rabbit cornealbiomechanics, and flattening of rabbit corneas. IVMED-80 reduced Kmax of 1.0 D with 16 weeks of therapy in patientswithout adverse events.NEW ORLEANS, LAFRIDAY, NOVEMBER 12FORUM 2021
