Radial keratotomy: a review of 300 cases.
Three hundred consecutive cases of radial keratotomy performed between 1985 and 1990 were reviewed. There were no sight threatening complications of surgery and no patient lost one or more lines of corrected Snellen acuity. Overall 78.7% saw 6/12 or better unaided postoperatively and 51.7% saw 6/6 or better. Refraction showed 61.3% to be within 1 dioptre of emmetropia and 86.7% were within 2 di...
متن کاملHistopathology of radial keratotomy.
Report of a Case. A 39-year-old man with a history of RK performed elsewhere 8 years prior had complaints of decreased vision in both eyes. The patient’s preoperative refraction was –9.25 OD and –9.50 OS. According to the patient, the initial surgery was uncomplicated, although both eyes required enhancements. Cycloplegic refraction in our office was –3.50 +0.50 70 OD and –13.50 +1.00 100 OS, g...
متن کاملRadial keratotomy associated endothelial degeneration
PURPOSE To describe the presentation and clinical course of eyes with a history of radial keratotomy (RK) and varying degrees of endothelial degeneration. METHODS Retrospective case series were used. RESULTS Thirteen eyes (seven patients) were identified with clinical findings of significant guttata and a prior history of RK. The mean age of presentation for cornea evaluation was 54.3 years...
متن کاملHistopathologic comparison of conventional radial keratotomy and minimally invasive radial keratotomy in rabbits.
The aim of the present study was to compare conventional radial keratotomy (RK) with minimally invasive RK (mini-RK) in terms of achieved incisional depth as well as the histopathologic changes in the rabbit corneal structures. Four conventional RK incisions were performed on the right eye and four mini-RK incisions were performed on the left eye of 12 Island rabbits using a centripetal cutting...
متن کاملThe effect of altitude on radial keratotomy.
The authors analyzed refractive results of patients who underwent radial keratotomy (RK) at sea level and high altitude and evaluated the effects of the altitude. A total of 102 eyes undergoing RK procedures performed in two clinical centers having different altitude were analyzed. The results compared between subjects who had undergone RK at sea level (Istanbul/Turkey) and at an altitude of 57...
