Corneal interface abscess after excimer laser in situ keratomileusis

Laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) carries the risk of infection. We report a case culture-negative interface abscess following LASIK that was successfully treated with antibiotics and povidone iodine

Two-year results of photorefractive keratectomy with scanning spot ablation for myopia of less than -6.0 diopters

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: To investigate the efficacy predictability, stability, and safety of photorefractive keratectomy (PRK) with scanning spot ablation for the treatment of myopia of less than -6.0 D

Silicone oil removal using a self-sealing corneal incision under topical anesthesia

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: To report the results of silicone oil removal from aphakic eyes using a self-sealing clear corneal incision under topical anesthesia

Secondary laser in situ keratomileusis 1 year after primary LASIK for high myopia

Purpose: To report the results of the laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) using a second-cut hinged corneal flap to treat regression 1 year after primary LASIK for high myopia

Retinal detachment following laser in situ keratomileusis

OBJECTIVE: To report the clinical characteristics, surgical management and outcome of retinal detachment following laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) in myopic patients

Corneal iron ring associated with iatrogenic keratectasia after myopic laser in situ keratomileusis

A 23-year-old woman had bilateral myopic laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK). Two months postoperatively, she reported decreased visual acuity. Biomicroscopic examination revealed a corneal epithelial iron ring around the central keratectasia on both corneas. The appearance of the ring pattern was similar to the iron deposits of the Fleischer ring of keratoconus. J Cataract Refract Surg 2000; 26: 1684-1686 (C) 2000 ASCRS and ESCRS

Decreased tear secretion after laser in situ keratomileusis for high myopia

PURPOSE: To investigate the changes in tear secretion and tear film stability after excimer laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) for high myopia

Optical coherence tomography for evaluation of anatomical changes in the cornea after laser in situ keratomileusis

Purpose: To examine the use of optical coherence tomography (OCT) in evaluating anatomical changes after laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) and complications related to the interface and corneal flap
