Iatrogenic Keratectasia Following Laser in situ Keratomileusis
Journal of Refractive Surgery, 2002ABSTRACT PURPOSE: To evaluate keratectasia after laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) for high myopia. METHODS: A 49-year-old male patient with myopia of -23.50 D in both eyes underwent LASIK with a Summit Technology Apex Plus excimer laser. A Moria manually-guided MDSC microkeratome was used. Preoperative corneal topography in both

Choroidal Neovascularization Following Laser In situ Keratomileusis
Ophthalmic Surgery, Lasers and Imaging Retina, 2004Abstract. Two cases of choroidal neovascularization occurring after laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) are presented from two separate centers. In the first case, an extrafoveal choroidal neovascular membrane, apparently associated with age-related macular degeneration, occurred 3 months after a LASIK procedure was performed on a 64-year-old man with

Ectasia after laser in situ keratomileusis
Journal of Cataract and Refractive Surgery, 2003Eighty-five cases of post laser in situ keratomileusis ectasia were reviewed and analyzed. Cases of keratoconus or forme fruste keratoconus were eliminated; many remaining case reports lacked key information. The current literature is unable to define a specific residual corneal thickness or a range of preoperative corneal thickness that would put an ...

Laser-in-situ-Keratomileusis mit Mikrokeratom oder Femtosekundenlaser
Der Ophthalmologe, 2017In LASIK, after cutting a lamellating stromal corneal incision (flap) with a microkeratome or a femtosecond laser, the underlying tissue is treated with an excimer laser for refractive correction. The objective is to achieve independency from spectacles and contact lenses due to correction of ametropia.Surgery is indicated when the patient wishes to ...
