Photorefractive keratectomy for hyperopia after radial keratotomy.
BACKGROUND Progressive hyperopia is a common complication following radial keratotomy. METHODS Ten eyes of ten consecutive patients with hyperopia after radial keratotomy between +1.75 and +4.00 diopters (D) were treated with the hyperopia module of the Nidek Model EC-5000 excimer laser. The mean preoperative uncorrected visual acuity was 0.38 (20/60+). RESULTS After excimer laser photorefr...
متن کاملExcimer laser photorefractive keratectomy for hyperopia.
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE Photorefractive keratectomy (PRK) has been extensively evaluated for the correction of myopia. This study was undertaken to assess the safety, efficacy, and reliability of PRK in the correction of hyperopia. PATIENTS AND METHODS There were 28 eyes with refractions of +1 to +7.75 D treated for hyperopia with the Chiron Technolas 217-C excimer laser. Thorough visual ass...
متن کاملTransepithelial Photorefractive Keratectomy for Hyperopia: A 12-Month Bicentral Study.
PURPOSE To investigate the safety, efficacy, and stability of transepithelial photorefractive keratectomy (PRK) for hyperopia. METHODS This interventional case series study at two sites included 55 eyes (31 patients) with hyperopia (0.50 to 6.00 diopters [D]), with or without astigmatism (0.00 to -3.00 D), that underwent one-step transepithelial PRK with a Amaris 500-Hz excimer laser (SCHWIND...
متن کاملLong-Term Efficacy of Photorefractive Keratectomy In Hyperopia Patients
Hyperopia is a common refractive error that is usually corrected with eyeglasses or contact lenses. Following the fast advancement in refractive surgery and technology, eyeglasses or contact lenses were no longer the single treatment option in refractive errors. Today, extraction of transparent lens and intraocular lens implantation, phacic intraocular lens applications and corneal surgeries ar...

PURPOSE To describe a topographically guided photorefractive keratectomy technique for the management of secondary hyperopia following radial keratectomy. METHODS A retrospective study was carried out in patients where a topographically guided photorefractive keratectomy technique was performed for the management of secondary hyperopia following radial keratectomy. The patients had preoperati...
