Customized ablation algorithm for the treatment of steep central islands after refractive laser surgery.

Steep central island (SCI) formation after photorefractive keratectomy (PRK) and laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) represents a major drawback in the visual rehabilitation of patients after refractive laser surgery. Because of the small size of SCIs, current ablation algorithms are unable to properly calculate an ablation pattern for customized retreatment. We present the use of a new ablati...
