Pseudomonas keratitis 4 years after laser in situ keratomileusis.

Purpose: To report a patient who presented an infectious keratitis 4 years after laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) without any other predisposing risk factor than the LASIK procedure itself.

Case Report: We report a 32-year-old man operated by LASIK in January 2006 who presented with infectious keratitis in the OD in April 2010. Clinical examination showed a corneal abscess at 10-o'clock position in the interface and fibrin and Tyndall 4+ in the anterior chamber.

Conductive keratoplasty to correct residual hyperopia after cataract surgery.

Purpose: To evaluate the efficacy, predictability, safety, and stability of conductive keratoplasty (CK) for correcting residual hyperopia after cataract surgery with intraocular lens implantation.

Setting: Vissum-Instituto Oftalmologico de Alicante, Alicante, and Vissum-Instituto de Albacete, Albacete, Spain.

Methods: Sixteen eyes of 16 patients had CK for the correction of residual hyperopia after cataract surgery.

Interface corneal edema secondary to steroid-induced elevation of intraocular pressure simulating diffuse lamellar keratitis.

Purpose: To describe interface corneal edema secondary to steroid-induced elevation of intraocular pressure (IOP) following LASIK.

Methods: Retrospective observational case series. Diffuse interface edema secondary to steroid-induced elevation of IOP was observed after LASIK simulating diffuse lamellar keratitis (DLK) in 13 eyes.

Conductive keratoplasty for the correction of residual hyperopia after LASIK.

Purpose: To report the 6-month results concerning efficacy, safety, predictability, and stability of conductive keratoplasty for the correction of residual hyperopia after corneal refractive surgery.

Methods: A total of 35 eyes (26 patients) with residual hyperopia after corneal refractive surgery ranging between +1.00 to +4.

Corneal modeling of keratoconus by conductive keratoplasty.

We evaluated the effect of conductive keratoplasty (CK) applications for corneal modeling to treat keratoconus or post-laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) corneal ectasia in 3 patients. Treating keratoconus with CK applications resulted in more regular topography with visual improvement.

Near vision restoration with refractive lens exchange and pseudoaccommodating and multifocal refractive and diffractive intraocular lenses: comparative clinical study.

Purpose: To evaluate near visual performance after implantation of a pseudoaccommodating intraocular lens (IOL) (Crystalens AT-45, eyeonics) or a multifocal IOL (refractive model, AMO Array; diffractive model, AcriTec TwinSet) after lens surgery.

Settings: Instituto Oftalmologico de Alicante, Miguel Hernandez University, Alicante, Spain.

Methods: Forty patients were included in this prospective clinical comparative study.
