ABSTRACT PURPOSE: To investigate the risk factors and mechanisms of diffuse
lamellar keratitis (DLK) after laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK). METHODS: In
5708 eyes of 2927 patients who underwent LASIK, the patient's background,
clinical findings, and surgical data were retrospectively evaluated and compared
with patients who had DLK and those who did not (non-DLK group). RESULTS: DLK

ABSTRACT PURPOSE: To report cases of acute bilateral catarrhal infiltrates in
the early postoperative period after laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK).
METHODS: Retrospective review of both eyes of two patients. RESULTS: Two
patients developed acute bilateral, marginal, catarrhal infiltrates in the early
postoperative period after LASIK. Both patients had moderate to severe chronic

Central Necrotic Lamellar Inflammation After Laser in situ KeratomileusisJournal of Refractive Surgery - Tập 17 Số 2 - Trang 110-112 - 2001
Barbara Parolini, Giovanni Battista Marcon, Giacomo Panozzo
ABSTRACT PURPOSE: To report four cases of corneal interface complications that
occurred after excimer laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK). METHODS: Four eyes
of three patients underwent technically uneventful LASIK. RESULTS: One day after
LASIK, patients presented with severe pain, blurred vision, conjunctival
infection, and diffuse opacity at the interface. Two days after LASIK,
significant feat... hiện toàn bộ
Complications of LASIK Flaps Made by the IntraLase 15- and 30-kHz Femtosecond LasersJournal of Refractive Surgery - Tập 25 Số 11 - Trang 979-984 - 2009
Payman Haft, Sonia H. Yoo, George D. Kymionis, Takeshi Ide, Terrence P. O’Brien, William W. Culbertson
Purpose: To describe complications associated with femtosecond laser-assisted
flap creation in LASIK surgery. The management and visual outcomes of
femtosecond laser complications related to flap creation in LASIK patients are
also described. Methods: All eyes that underwent LASIK with the IntraLase
femtosecond laser from September 2003 to June 2006 at a university-based
refractive center were inc... hiện toàn bộ
Phakic Intraocular Lens to Correct High Myopic Amblyopia in ChildrenJournal of Refractive Surgery - Tập 18 Số 5 - Trang 519-523 - 2002
L Lesueur, J L Arné
ABSTRACT PURPOSE: In a clinical investigation, we evaluated anatomical and
functional outcomes of posterior phakic chamber lens (ICL) implantation for
correction of high myopia with amblyopia in children. METHODS: Twelve eyes of 11
children, age 3 to 16 years, with high myopic amblyopia were operated with
implantation of a Staar Surgical ICL. In these patients, conventional therapy
with spectacles... hiện toàn bộ
Reverse Geometry Contact Lens Fitting After Corneal Refractive SurgeryJournal of Refractive Surgery - Tập 21 Số 6 - Trang 753-756 - 2005
Raúl Martín, Guadalupe Rodríguez
ABSTRACT PURPOSE: To describe reverse geometry rigid gas permeable (RGP) contact
lens fitting in eyes with irregular surface induced by complications after
myopic corneal refractive surgery. METHODS: Reverse geometry RGP contact lenses
were fit in nine eyes that underwent myopic corneal refractive surgery and
experienced a reduction in best spectacle-corrected visual acuity (BSCVA)

Automated In situ Keratomileusis for MyopiaJournal of Refractive Surgery - Tập 11 Số 6 - Trang 431-515 - 1995
Osama Mohamed Ibrahim, George O. Waring, Tarek Salah, Akef El Maghraby
ABSTRACT BACKGROUND: In situ keratomileusis is a rapidly changing refractive
corneal surgical procedure for the correction of myopia. We report here the
results of a retrospective study of in situ keratomileusis with the refractive
cut made with a microkeratome. The technique represents an intermediate stage of
development that used a sutured corneal disc, an early automated microkeratome,
and no ... hiện toàn bộ
LASIK for Myopia Using the Zeiss VisuMax Femtosecond Laser and MEL 80 Excimer LaserJournal of Refractive Surgery - Tập 25 Số 4 - Trang 350-356 - 2009
Marcus Blum, Kathleen S. Kunert, Annika Gille, Walter Sekundo
Purpose: To assess the efficacy, safety, and predictability of the VisuMax
femtosecond laser (Carl Zeiss Meditec). Methods: In a prospective, multicenter
clinical trial, 32 eyes of 17 patients underwent LASIK and flap creation with
the VisuMax femtosecond laser and ablation with the MEL 80 excimer laser (Carl
Zeiss Meditec). Mean patient age was 35 years (range: 23 to 52 years). Mean

Effect of Acute Biomechanical Changes on Corneal Curvature After PhotokeratectomyJournal of Refractive Surgery - Tập 17 Số 6 - Trang 658-669 - 2001
William J. Dupps, Cynthia J. Roberts
ABSTRACT PURPOSE: Unintended hyperopia shift; is a common yet poorly understood
complication of phototherapeutic keratectomy (PTK) that raises fondamental
questions about the etiology of corneal curvature change in PRK and LASIK. We
investigated the relative contributions of ablation profile and peripheral
stromal thickening to intraoperative PTK-indueed central flattening, and propose
a biomechan... hiện toàn bộ
Seven-year Follow-up of LASIK for MyopiaJournal of Refractive Surgery - Tập 25 Số 3 - Trang 312-318 - 2009
Waldir Neira Zalentein, Timo Tervo, Juha M. Holopainen
Purpose: To assess the long-term refractive results, subjective parameters, and
late sequelae of LASIK. Methods: A retrospective follow-up study was conducted
on 38 eyes of 21 patients (17 with bilateral treatment and 4 with unilateral
treatment) who had LASIK surgery between 1999 and 2000. Laser ablations were
done with an excimer laser (VISX STAR and STAR S2). Follow-up was 2 months, 2
years, an... hiện toàn bộ
