Outcomes of photorefractive keratectomy following laser in situ keratomileusis: a cohort study.

Objective: To analyze the outcomes of photorefractive keratectomy (PRK) on residual myopia and hyperopia post-laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) and to compare these results with PRK on eyes without previous laser refractive surgery.

Design: Retrospective comparative cohort study.

Participants: Patients undergoing PRK between 2006 and 2010 were reviewed.

Collagen crosslinking after radial keratotomy.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to report the outcomes of corneal collagen crosslinking (CXL) after previous radial keratotomy (RK) in patients with decreasing visual acuity and/or diurnal visual fluctuations.

Methods: The charts of all patients who had undergone CXL because of a worsening corrected distance visual acuity (CDVA) and/or diurnal visual fluctuations after RK were reviewed retrospectively. Uncorrected distance visual acuity, CDVA, manifest refraction, and corneal topography were recorded preoperatively and at 1, 3, 6, and 12 months after the procedure.
