IOL power calculation after keratorefractive surgery is an important applied aspect of cataract surgery. The probability refractive error especially high when calculating in patients with a history radial keratotomy. There no unified approach to the tactics and methodology for this category at moment. studies were conducted group 17 (26 eyes) RK. Haigis formula, which does not use keratometry p...

A 10-year-old, spayed female, Maltese dog presented with a 2-day history of severe left eye squint. Slit-lamp biomicroscopy showed deep corneal defect stained into doughnut shape together hypopyon in the anterior chamber. Based on these results, diagnosis descemetocele and uveitis was made. Deep keratotomy combined nictitating membrane flap effectively resolved without complications. The surgic...

BACKGROUND Five years ago, we presented 19 procedures employing two intrastromal purse-string sutures to treat hyperopic shift following radial keratotomy. Thirty-four additional procedures and longer follow-up are now presented detailing the task of rehabilitating these eyes. METHODS Fifty-three eyes of 53 radial keratotomy patients who were unhappy with their uncorrected vision and who were...

This case series examines the magnitude and regional variation in scleral lens–induced corneal edema postradial keratotomy (RK) eyes. Scheimpflug imaging was used to measure thickness across central 6 mm before after lens wear nine post-RK eyes (median age 64 years). Variations were examined as a function of distance from center (six 0.5-mm annuli) 0° 360°. The median 2.19% (interquartile range...
