Epithelial ingrowth following laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK): prevalence, risk factors, management and visual outcomes [PDF]

BMJ Open Ophthalmology, 2018
The number of laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) procedures is continuing to rise. Since its first application for correcting simple refractive errors over 25 years ago, the role of LASIK has extended to treat other conditions, including ...

Femtosecond laser-assisted <i>in situ</i> keratomileusis for the correction of residual ametropia after penetrating keratoplasty: 1-year follow-up. [PDF]

Front Ophthalmol (Lausanne)
Background After an optimal corneal transplantation, a residual refractive error is possible due to several factors. We evaluated the 1-yr follow up of laser-assisted in situ keratomileusis using femtosecond laser (LASIK) for the correction of residual ...
