Post-LASIK ectasia treated with intrastromal corneal ring segments and corneal crosslinking.

Abstract

Corneal ectasia is a serious complication of laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK). We report the case of a 29-year-old man who underwent LASIK in both eyes and in whom corneal ectasia developed in the left eye 3 years after surgery. He was treated sequentially with intraocular pressure-lowering medication, intrastromal corneal ring segment (ICRS) implants, and collagen cross-linking. Vision improved and the ectasia stabilized following treatment. Combined ICRS implantation and collagen cross-linking should be considered early in the management of post-LASIK ectasia.
