Laser vision correction for residual refractive errors in patients with previous radial keratotomy (RK) presents a challenging task. Different techniques have been used with varying outcomes. This study aimed to systematically review published manuscripts on refractive surgeries in post-RK patients search in PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science. The final analysis included 35 studies that described a total of 888 eyes. Our systematic review and meta-analysis demonstrated a significant improvement in uncorrected distance visual acuity (UDVA) for photorefractive keratectomy, topography-guided-PRK, wavefront-guided-PRK, and femtosecond- laser-assisted in situ keratomileusis (LASIK), while mechanical microkeratome LASIK did not yield such significant improvements. Moreover, our results suggest that hyperopic post-RK patients had a significant improvement in UDVA, whereas no such improvement was observed in myopic patients.

PURPOSE: To assess visual and refractive outcomes and recurrence rates of subepithelial infiltrates after corneal surface ablation with mitomycin C (MMC) 0.02% for the treatment of chronic corneal scars following epidemic keratoconjunctivitis and to compare these results with a control group receiving only medical treatment. METHODS: This was a retrospective case series enrolling patients with central corneal scars following epidemic keratoconjunctivitis. Patients were divided into two groups: (1) control with clinical follow-up and refractive correction with glasses or rigid gas-permeable contact lenses when necessary and (2) transepithelial phototherapeutic keratectomy (PTK) with MMC 0.02%, combined with photorefractive keratectomy (PRK) in selected cases (treatment group). Signs and symptoms, corrected distance visual acuity (CDVA) in logMAR units, manifest and cycloplegic refraction, and depth of the corneal opacities were assessed. RESULTS: Thirty-five eyes of 27 patients (11 men [40.7%] and 16 women [59.3%]) were enrolled, with a mean follow-up of 54.4 ± 19.7 and 27.5 ± 22.8 months in the control and treatment groups, respectively. Mean improvement in CDVA was 0.13 ± 0.17 logMAR ( P = .007) in the control group and 0.29 ± 0.24 logMAR ( P = .001) in the treatment group. Intergroup comparison showed a greater improvement in the treatment group ( P = .041). Mean hyperopic shift induced in the treatment group was +0.46 ± 1.20 diopters. The recurrence rate of subepithelial infiltrates was 77.7% in the control group and 11.7% in the treatment group throughout the follow-up (54.4 ± 19.7 and 27.5 ± 22.8 months, respectively). CONCLUSIONS: Corneal surface ablation with MMC 0.02% was efficient in treating corneal scars following adenoviral epidemic keratoconjunctivitis, with greater visual improvement in comparison to clinical treatment and a decreased rate of infiltrate recurrence.

HOAs, such as the distribution in the population and changes with increasing aging, are essential for understanding the nature of each aberration and correcting it. Hence, the purpose of this study were: firstly, to obtain information about characters of anterior and posterior corneal HOAs in the Asian eyes of Chinese people with emmetropia and to compare them with findings in other series in the literature; secondly, to determine their relationships with age, gender, CCT and ACD. Materials and Methods This study was designed as a prospective, randomized study and followed the tenets of the Declaration of Helsinki. Informed consent was obtained from each candidate. A total of 1026 eyes of 1206 candidates, 605 male (50.2%), 601 female (49.8%) were examined, only right eyes were considered. Corneal HOAs were computed from the central 6.0 mm zone of the corneal topographic maps. All Subjects came spontaneously for consultation and were subdivided into six age groups. The subjects were submitted
