Exploring the Impact of Refractive and Ocular Residual Astigmatism on Stereopsis After Photorefractive Keratectomy in Patients With Myopic Astigmatism. [PDF]
J OphthalmolBackground To investigate the impact of refractive and ocular residual astigmatism (ORA) on stereopsis after photorefractive keratectomy (PRK) for the correction of myopic astigmatism. Methods This prospective observational study was conducted on patients who underwent PRK for the treatment of myopia and myopic astigmatism using a Schwind Amaris 1050RS

Evaluation of the Effect of Topical Vitamin A Eye Ointment on Pain Reduction and Accelerated Healing of Corneal Defect After Photorefractive Keratectomy: A Prospective Randomized Controlled Study. [PDF]
Health Sci RepABSTRACT Background and Aims Photorefractive keratectomy (PRK) is commonly used for refractive errors but is associated with postoperative pain and delayed epithelial healing. Vitamin A has been shown to support epithelial regeneration and corneal wound healing.

Corneal Ectasia after Photorefractive Keratectomy [PDF]
Journal of Kerman University of Medical Sciences, 2022 Two cases are presented with corneal ectasia after photorefractive keratectomy (PRK). Case 1 is a 24-year-old man with manifest refractions of -6.0 DS, -3.0 DC, axis 180° in the right eye and -4.50 DS, -4.0 DC, axis 160° in the left eye respectively with

Topical rosiglitazone is an effective anti-scarring agent in the cornea [PDF]
, 2013 Corneal scarring remains a major cause of blindness world-wide, with limited treatment options, all of which have side-effects. Here, we tested the hypothesis that topical application of Rosiglitazone, a Thiazolidinedione and ligand of peroxisome ...
