Epithelial ingrowth following small incision lenticule extraction
Indian Journal of Ophthalmology, 2020 A 27-year-old female patient came for a routine postoperative check-up, with a history of bilateral ReLEx small incision lenticule extraction (SMILE) surgery done 1.5 years back. On examination, epithelial ingrowth was noticed in the left eye at 8-9'o'clock position. Topography showed excess flattening in the area of ingrowth.
