Photorefractive keratectomy for myopia in the setting of adenoviral subepithelial infiltrates.
American Journal of Ophthalmology 1998 December
PURPOSE: To report a patient with persistent subepithelial corneal opacities 18 months after adenoviral keratoconjunctivitis who underwent photorefractive keratectomy for the correction of myopia.
METHODS: Case report, review of medical literature, and slit-lamp photography.
RESULTS: The patient underwent photorefractive keratectomy in each eye, 1 week apart, with ablation of central corneal opacities and resultant best-corrected visual acuity of BE, 20/20. Symptomatic subepithelial stromal infiltrates recurred in the peripheral but not the central cornea of each eye 3 months after laser treatment.
CONCLUSIONS: Photorefractive keratectomy was successful in the correction of myopia and prevented the recurrence of adenoviral subepithelial corneal infiltrates within the laser-treated central cornea.
