Change in corneal curvature with elevation of intraocular pressure after radial keratotomy in the primate eye [PDF]
, 1988 In contrast to previously published results derived from rabbit eyes, in the primate eye, artificially induced elevations in intraocular pressure (IOP) in the physiologic range did not significantly affect the refractive status after radial keratotomy ...

Review of radial keratotomy in literature [PDF]
, 1985 Radial keratotomy is a recent surgical technique designed to reduce and/or eliminate myopic refractive error by altering the corneal curvature. Since being introduced to the United States in the late seventies, this procedure has received much attention ...

Traumatic wound dehiscence 3 1/2 years after radial keratotomy [Traumatische Wunddehiszenz und Hornhautruptur 3 1/2 Jahre nach radiarer Keratomie] [PDF]
, 1995 Background Severe complications such as a traumatic wound dehiscence have been described very rarely after radial keratotomy. The following case demonstrates for the first time that wound healing is not completed even 31/2 years postoperatively and that ...
