A 57-year-old woman undergoing LASIK complained of blurred vision in the right eye. After a successful trial of monovision with contact lenses, antiglaucoma drugs (2.5% nipradilol) were administered topically to the right eye twice a day t...

There has been the unsubstantiated clinical impression that laser refractive surgery accelerates cataract development along with solid experimental data about the cataractogenic effects of excimer laser treatment. We present the first documented case of significant cataract formation in a young myope after repeat excimer laser ablation necessitating phacoemulsification with a posterior chamber ...

A case of posterior vitreous detachment with epiretinal membrane in a young adult after LASIK is reported. LASIK surgeons must be aware of the possibility of posterior segment complications aft...
متن کاملLaser in situ keratomileusis for ametropia after penetrating keratoplasty.
PURPOSE To evaluate the efficacy of excimer laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) in the treatment of refractive errors after penetrating keratoplasty. METHODS Eight eyes underwent LASIK after a mean 71 months (SD 60) following the initial penetrating keratoplasty. A full ophthalmic assessment was performed before LASIK and at 1 week, 1, 3, 6, and 12 months after surgery. Mean follow-up was 8....
