Infectious keratitis after transepithelial photorefractive keratectomy: A case report

Indian Journal of Ophthalmology, 2020
Transepithelial photorefractive keratectomy (tPRK) promotes faster re-epithelialization which in turn can reduce the risk of infectious keratitis in the postoperative period. We present a case of a 22-year-old man with infectious keratitis in his left eye 8 days after an uneventful bilateral tPRK.

Corneal Epithelial Thickness Mapping: A Major Review

Journal of Ophthalmology, Volume 2024, Issue 1, 2024.
The corneal epithelium (CE) is the outermost layer of the cornea with constant turnover, relative stability, remarkable plasticity, and compensatory properties to mask alterations in the underlying stroma. The advent of quantitative imaging modalities capable of producing epithelial thickness mapping (ETM) has made it possible to characterize better ...

Transepithelial photorefractive keratectomy for the management of hyperopic regression after conductive keratoplasty. [PDF]

BMJ Case Rep, 2021
Several refractive techniques are available for the treatment of hyperopia. Conductive keratoplasty (CK) is a safe and non-ablative procedure suitable for the treatment of low hyperopia and presbyopia. Due to the high rate of regression, it is not a commonly used technique.
