Intraocular lens power calculation for cataract surgery after photorefractive keratectomy.
OBJECTIVE To assess intraocular lens (IOL) power calculations in patients undergoing cataract surgery after excimer laser photorefractive keratectomy (PRK) for myopia. METHODS Four eyes of two patients underwent phacoemulsification with IOL implantation after PRK for myopia. The estimated refractive error that would have been induced had the IOL predicted for emmetropia been implanted was cal...
متن کاملPhotorefractive keratectomy for myopia and photoastigmatic keratectomy for astigmatism.
BACKGROUND We conducted a clinical trial to evaluate the efficacy and safety of excimer laser photorefractive keratectomy (PRK) and photoastigmatic refractive keratectomy (PARK) using the Nidek EC-5000 excimer laser. METHODS A total of 67 eyes from 47 patients whose average age was 35 years were enrolled in the study. The mean spherical equivalent of the manifest refraction before surgery was...
متن کاملPhotorefractive Keratectomy in Keratoconus
PURPOSE To assess the efficacy and safety of topography-guided photorefractive keratectomy (PRK) for keratoconus and to estimate the subsequent risk of progression. METHODS This is a retrospective follow-up study. Between 1998 and 2013, 28 eyes of 23 patients (age 17-60) with grade 1-3 keratoconus received topography-guided PRK. Corrected-distance visual acuity (CDVA), keratometry, pachymetry...
متن کاملTransepithelial Photorefractive Keratectomy for Low to Moderate Myopia in Comparison with Conventional Photorefractive Keratectomy
PURPOSE To compare the effectiveness, safety and stability of the results of transepithelial photorefractive keratectomy (tPRK) with conventional photorefractive keratectomy (PRK) for low to moderate myopia. METHODS In this prospective non-randomized case-control study, patients with low to moderate myopia were assigned to the tPRK group (cases) or the PRK group (controls). In the tPRK group,...
متن کاملPhotorefractive keratectomy for anisometropic amblyopia in children.
PURPOSE To assess the safety and efficacy of photorefractive keratectomy (PRK) in children with anisometropic amblyopia and to define the characteristics of children who may be candidates for PRK. METHODS This thesis comprises four parts: (1) a retrospective analysis of risk factors predictive of amblyopia treatment failure in 104 children, (2) a prospective study of pachymetry in 198 eyes of...
