Posterior corneal topographic changes after partial flap during laser in situ keratomileusis.
AIM To study the posterior corneal topographic changes in eyes with partial flaps during laser assisted in situ keratomileusis (LASIK). METHODS Case records of 16 patients, who had partial flap in one eye during LASIK (group 1) and uncomplicated surgery in the other eye (group 2), were studied. Following occurrence of partial flap intraoperatively, laser ablation was abandoned in all the eyes...

متن کاملTraumatic corneal flap displacement after laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK)
BACKGROUND Laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) is the most common and popular procedure performed for the correction of refractive errors in the last two decades. We report a case of traumatic flap displacement with flap folding which occurred 3 years after LASIK was performed. Previous literature suggests that vision prognosis would be closely related to proper and prompt management of trauma...
متن کاملChanges in corneal asphericity after laser in situ keratomileusis.
PURPOSE To analyze the origin of the changes in corneal asphericity (p-factor) after laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) and the effect of postsurgery asphericity on contrast-sensitivity function (CSF) under photopic conditions. SETTING Department of Optics, University of Granada, Granada, Spain. METHODS The p-factor and CSF (best corrected before surgery and 1, 3, and 6 months after surge...
متن کاملFlap tearing during lift-flap laser in situ keratomileusis retreatment.
A flap tear occurred during laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) retreatment using a flap-lifting technique in 1 eye of 2 patients 4 to 5 months after the primary procedure. In the first case, the tear occurred in a decentered, standard thickness flap (168 mum) in a location close to the corneal limbus and limbal vessels. In the second case, the tear occurred in a well-centered thin flap (116 m...
