Related Articles Re-treatment after Lasik for correction of myopia and myopic astigmatism. Br J Ophthalmol. 2008 Aug 29; Authors: Bragheeth M, Fares U, Dua HS AIM: To evaluate the results of Lasik re-treatment for under correction or regression after primary Lasik procedures for myopia and myopic astigmatism. METHODS: A prospective evaluation of 360 consecutive Lasik-treated eyes, for myopia and/or myopic astigmatism, 32 eyes of 34 patients were retreated and followed at 3, 6 and 12 months post retreatment. Re-treatment was performed by lifting the original flap after cutting the epithelium around the flap edge with a fine needle. Standard ablation was performed based on the patient's residual refraction. RESULTS: 9.4% of eyes patients required retreatment. Prior to re-treatment the mean manifest spherical equivalent (SE) was -0.99 D +/- 1.48 D (range from - 0.75 to -2.63). The mean sphere was - 0.79 D +/- 1.20 D (range from -2.50 to -0.50) and the mean cylinder was -0.90 D +/- 1.14 D (from -2.75 to 1.25). At 1 year follow up 56% of the eyes were within +/- 0.50 D SE and 78% were within +/- 1.00 D SE. 78% percent of the eyes examined at one year post re-treatment managed unaided vision of 6/9 or better. Peripheral epithelial ingrowth not requiring treatment, developed in two eyes. Second re-treatment for regression was performed in one eye. A significant correlation was found between the refractive regression and each of the following: ... Source: www.associatedcontent.com --- 2 days ago
