Flap complications associated with lamellar refractive surgery

American Journal of Ophthalmology, 1999
Corneal lamellar refractive surgery for myopia reduces the risk of corneal haze but adds to the risk of flap complications. We retrospectively determined the incidence of flap complications in the initial series of eyes undergoing lamellar refractive surgery by one surgeon.

Refractive Lenticule Extraction Complications

Cornea, 2015
To report the complications associated with refractive lenticule extraction (ReLEx) in its 2 modalities: femtosecond lenticule extraction (FLEx) and small incision lenticule extraction (SMILE).In this retrospective review of a consecutive clinical case series, all patients who had a complicated ReLex FLEx or ReLEx SMILE procedure at the Cornea and ...

Complications of Refractive Lens Exchange

2008
This chapter approaches retinal complications, in particular retinal detachment after lens surgery in high-myopic patients. The incidence of retinal detachment in high-myopic patients corrected by intraocular surgery is reported based on the experience of the authors and on a review of published reports.

Complications of Refractive Keratotomy

2008
Radial keratotomy, initially a Russian technique, was promoted and practiced globally until the availability of the excimer laser. A myriad of techniques tried have resulted in a legacy refractive surgeons will continue seeing for decades of very challenging, incision-related, clinical problems. Newer measurement devices and treatment options

Complications and challenges of refractive surgery

Current Opinion in Ophthalmology
Purpose of review This review provides an overview of possible complications of the most commonly performed refractive surgeries: laser-assisted in situ keratomileusis (LASIK), photorefractive keratectomy (PRK), small incision lenticule extraction (SMILE), and lens-based refractive surgery.

[Complications of refraction disorders].

Oftalmologia (Bucharest, Romania : 1990), 2003
Refraction disorders, myopia, hypermetropy, astigmatism and anisometropy represent an important segment in ocular pathology as well as an economic and social problem for. Refractions disorders are also responsible for a series of complications generated by different levels of damages of the visual function.

Advances in scleral lenses for refractive surgery complications

Current Opinion in Ophthalmology, 2015
The last two decades have brought advances in materials and manufacturing of large diameter rigid gas-permeable contact lenses, and a greater appreciation of the role of scleral lenses for therapeutic indications. The purpose of this review is to provide an update on the use of rigid gas-permeable scleral lenses in the management of patients with ...

Refractive Surgery Outcomes and Frequency of Complications

2008
There is no risk-free surgical procedure. There are enough data in literature to determine the risk for the majority of the refractive surgery procedures. Refractive surgery risks and benefits should be evaluated individually in order to choose the surgical approach properly.

[Clinical results and complications of refractive surgery].

Nippon Ganka Gakkai zasshi, 1999
To evaluate the efficacy of photorefractive keratectomy (PRK) with a scanning type excimer laser MEL-60 (AESCLUP-MEDITEC, Co).We performed PRK on 102 eyes of 62 myopic patients whose refraction ranged from-3.00 to -12.50 D (mean, -6.47 D) and examined the clinical results of postoperative refraction and complications.At 12, 18, and 24 months after the ...
