Treatment of dense subepithelial corneal haze after laser-assisted subepithelial keratectomy

Journal of Cataract and Refractive Surgery, 2004
We report a case of dense and visually significant corneal haze after laser-assisted subepithelial keratectomy (LASEK). Visually significant corneal haze after LASEK can be successfully treated with manual debridement and intraoperative mitomycin-C.

Topical anesthesia-induced keratopathy after laser-assisted subepithelial keratectomy

Journal of Cataract and Refractive Surgery, 2007
A 42-year-old woman had uneventful bilateral laser-assisted subepithelial keratectomy (LASEK) to correct myopia. She experienced intense pain in the first postoperative week and obtained topical oxybuprocaine for pain relief. Subsequently, she developed bilateral persistent corneal epithelial defects, epithelial edema, and bullae that failed to heal ...

Learning curve of laser-assisted subepithelial keratectomy

Journal of Cataract and Refractive Surgery, 2007
To study the effect of the learning curve of laser-assisted subepithelial keratectomy (LASEK) on the visual and refractive results.This retrospective study comprised 56 eyes that had LASEK for myopia. The eyes were among the first 143 that had LASEK by the same surgeon with the same excimer laser and same nomogram.

Laser-Assisted Subepithelial Keratectomy (LASEK) without Alcohol versus Photorefractive Keratectomy (PRK)

European Journal of Ophthalmology, 2003
Purpose To evaluate epithelial healing and visual outcome after laser-assisted subepithelial keratectomy (LASEK) without alcohol de-epithelialization and to compare this technique to photorefractive keratectomy (PRK) in myopia. Methods In a series of 1953 patients undergoing bilateral myopic PRK, an epithelial flap could be obtained by manual de ...
