Brief Summary: This Study is a first in human clinical study addressed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of a novel intra-corneal nitinol device (Investigational Device; GROSSO® implant) for the treatment of advanced keratoconus disease of the eye.
Detailed Description: The medical device under investigation is a sterile thin 8-mm diameter circular scaffold made of a nickel-titanium alloy (nitinol) that is intended as a permanent implant that is surgically inserted into the cornea in order to modify force by inducing a change in corneal shape and consequently improving vision. This Study is aimed at adults with a stage 3-4 keratoconus, a central K reading \> 53.00 D and RMS of coma aberration \> 3.5, which are not eligible for Intrastromal Corneal Ring Segments (ICRS) and are recommended for keratoplasty.

Therefore, this study represents a salvage route to preserve the cornea. Envisaged worst case scenario of failure of the experimental device patients would be redirected to keratoplasty.
