Article Synopsis
- This study details 5 patients (10 eyes) who experienced corneal ectasia after undergoing cosmetic keratopigmentation (KTP) using a femtosecond laser.
- The research observed progressive changes in corneal shape and vision over 6 months to 4 years post-surgery, despite all patients initially having normal corneal conditions.
- The findings highlight that corneal ectasia can occur as a complication of KTP, emphasizing the need for thorough preoperative evaluations and patient education on avoiding eye rubbing to mitigate risks.

Beaumont Eye Institute, 3535 West 13 Mile Road #555, Royal Oak, MI, 48073, USA.
Purpose: To present a case of therapeutic intrastromal keratopigmentation to resolve intractable photophobia secondary to traumatic aniridia in a hypotonus eye.
Observations: A 66-year-old male presented with intractable photophobia for several years in the left eye following a ruptured globe and multiple subsequent retinal surgeries for retinal detachments complicated by proliferative vitreoretinopathy. The patient underwent intrastromal keratopigmentation given surgical limitations due to the presence of hypotony and silicone oil dependence.
