mance of the combined system. However, the presence of ocular dominance does not contraindicate the combination of MIOLs with different designs or additions as proved by previous studies.6 It is noteworthy that the majority (82.5%) of patients in our study did not prefer the vision of one eye over the other when specifi cally asked about this item. Future studies should further address the issue of ocular dominance when combining refractive and diffractive MIOLs. Gonzalo Muñoz, MD, PhD, FEBO César Albarrán-Diego, MSc Valencia, Spain

Delayed onset of pressure-induced interlamellar stromal keratitis in a patient with recurrent uveitis

INTRODUCTION Corticosteroid treatment for uveitis can lead to delayed-onset pressure-induced interlamellar stromal keratitis (PISK), even years after laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK).A 35-year-old man presented to our clinic after experiencing blurred vision in his left eye for 1 month. For the past month, he had been prescribed topical steroid and anti-glaucomatous medication. He had under...

Anterior Segment Optical Coherence Tomography Imaging of Central Toxic Keratopathy.

The authors report anterior segment optical coherence tomography (OCT) imaging findings in a case of central toxic keratopathy following laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) surgery for low hyperopia. OCT imaging 1 month after surgery demonstrates that the flap thickness is maintained and the location of stromal tissue loss is just posterior to the flap in the stromal bed in the affected area. ...

Role of keratocyte loss on corneal wound repair after LASIK.

PURPOSE To investigate whether an initial keratocyte loss intensifies central corneal wound repair after LASIK in rabbits. METHODS New Zealand White rabbits received either conventional LASIK (-8 D, 6-mm diameter) or LASIK combined with a 7-mm diameter, epithelial denudation (LASIK-scrape). Animals were examined during 4 months by slit lamp and in vivo confocal microscopy to monitor changes i...

Effects of concomitant administration of latanoprost and pilocarpine on the intraocular pressure of experimentally glaucomatous rabbits

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of a combination of latanoprost and pilocarpine onthe intraocular pressure in experimentally glaucomatous rabbits. Ocular hypertension was induced in 11conscious rabbits by the oral administration of tap water (70 mL/kg) via an orogastric tube. The study wasconducted in three therapeutic groups to test the effects of latanoprost (group L), p...
