To assess the efficacy, safety, and stability of refractive outcomes in hyperopic Laser-Assisted in Situ Keratomileusis (LASIK) with and without the application of Mitomycin C (MMC). This randomized, parallel group, controlled multicenter trial included 140 hyperopic eyes. The participants were randomly assigned to two groups: one receiving LASIK with mitomycin C (MMC) (n = 70) and the other receiving LASIK without MMC (n = 70).

Anorexia nervosa (AN) is a psychiatric eating disorder characterized by body mass index (BMI) ≤ 18.5, fear of gaining weight, and a distorted perception of body weight. With increasing rates of myopia, there is a population of patients who concurrently develop AN and may seek corneal refractive surgery.

Purpose: To evaluate the incidence and causes of the need for retreatment after LASIK-induced monovision in patients with myopia and presbyopia without a previous trial of contact lens induced monovision.
Design: Retrospective, observational study.
Methods: We retrospectively studied 914 eyes of 457 consecutive myopic patients with presbyopia scheduled for LASIK-induced monovision (nondominant eye corrected for near).

Extreme myopic laser-assisted in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) poses challenges regarding future intraocular lens (IOL) power selection. A male patient in his 40s complained of progressive right eye (OD) diminished visual acuity. He had a history of myopic LASIK in both eyes (OU) 20 years before, and implantable collamer lens (ICL) implant in OU 8 years before.

Methods: This prospective study enrolled participants who underwent either ray-tracing-guided LASIK or topography-guided LASIK. Comprehensive ophthalmic evaluations were performed preoperatively, as well as at 1 day, 2 weeks, 1 month, and 3 months postoperatively.
