Epithelial ingrowth after laser in situ keratomileusis: a histopathologic study in human corneas.
OBJECTIVE To report the histopathologic findings in 4 human corneas that developed epithelial ingrowth after laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK), at various postoperative intervals. METHODS One specimen was obtained intraoperatively during treatment of epithelial ingrowth 2 months after LASIK (case 1). The other 3 corneal specimens were obtained after penetrating keratoplasty performed at 7 ...
متن کاملUse of a hydrogel sealant in epithelial ingrowth removal after laser in situ keratomileusis.
UNLABELLED We describe 2 cases in which clinically significant epithelial ingrowth was removed by debridement and followed by the use of a hydrogel sealant (Resure) to seal the flap edge. In both cases, the epithelial ingrowth was seen after otherwise uneventful laser in situ keratomileusis retreatment. The visual outcomes were good with no recrudescence of interface epithelium. FINANCIAL DIS...
متن کاملCorneal Densitometry as a Tool to Measure Epithelial Ingrowth After Laser In Situ Keratomileusis.
PURPOSE This study evaluates the correlation between corneal densitometry and epithelial ingrowth (EI) after laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK). METHODS Corneal densitometry of 3 patients who developed EI after LASIK was measured with the Oculus Pentacam. Corneal densitometry readings of each patient were obtained preoperatively and postoperatively after ingrowth was discovered. Densitometr...

trations after oral dosing. The infection was successfully eradicated with preservation of ambulatory vision. This first case of postoperative VRE endophthalmitis is an unfortunate milestone in ophthalmic surgery. Future cases are probably inevitable given the trends in the epidemiology of VRE infection and colonization, especially in patients with compromised immunity. Colonized donor corneal ...
متن کاملCataractogenesis after Repeat Laser in situ Keratomileusis
There has been the unsubstantiated clinical impression that laser refractive surgery accelerates cataract development along with solid experimental data about the cataractogenic effects of excimer laser treatment. We present the first documented case of significant cataract formation in a young myope after repeat excimer laser ablation necessitating phacoemulsification with a posterior chamber ...
