Corneal Optical Aberrations Induced by Photorefractive Keratectomy

, 1997
BACKGROUND: Photorefractive keratectomy causes marked alteration to anterior corneal topography, and is likely to induce major changes to the optical aberrations of the eye.

Prolonged Light Sensitivity After Trans-epithelial Topography Guided Photorefractive Keratectomy During the COVID-19 Pandemic

, 2023
Prolonged light sensitivity is a lesser known complication of photorefractive keratectomy (PRK). During the COVID- 19 pandemic, we observed an increased incidence of light sensitivity with features of corneal-neuralgia secondary to this procedure.

Update on Simultaneous Topo-guided Photorefractive Keratectomy Immediately Followed by Corneal Collagen Cross-linking for Treatment of Progressive Keratoconus

, 2012
Corneal collagen cross-linking (CXL) is a safe and effective technique for the management of corneal ecstatic disorders. It has been proven that CXL is effectual in stopping the progression of keratoconus quasi ‘freezing’ the cornea and in many cases ...
