Personalized wavefront-guided ablation after complication in FemtoLasik lamella dissection

ABSTRACT

Femtolasik is one of the most used techniques in refractive surgery due to good refractive results, predictability, reproducibility, and safety, achieving excellent results and a high degree of satisfaction. Although the complication rates are small, it is worth noting that there may be intercurrences. The objective of this work is to report a case of complication in the dissection of the lamella of laser in situ keratomileusis (Lasik) with Femtosecond laser, and subsequent lamella tear. Excimer Laser was applied with mitomycin 0.02% and re-approached with wavefront guided surgery, evolving with good final visual quality.
