Coming soonCorneal ectasia following refractive surgery is an uncommon, sight-threatening iatrogenic complication affecting the ocular anterior segment, occurring in patients who have undergone corneal refractive procedures such as laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) or photorefractive keratectomy (PRK).
It is pathologically characterized by biomechanical weakening and structural destabilization of the corneal stroma, frequently exacerbated by intraocular pressure acting on an inadequate residual stromal bed or preexisting subclinical ectatic susceptibility.
Clinically, this leads to progressive stromal thinning, forward protrusion or steepening of the cornea, irregular astigmatism, worsening myopia, and substantial loss of uncorrected and spectacle-corrected visual acuity.
