Abstract
Aim: Aim of this study is to present Corneoplastique™ as a new super-specialty and innovative, conceptual and surgical protocol for correcting LASIK complications aiming for unaided emmetropia.
Methods: Patients with all kinds of refractive surgery complications from Lasik underwent a corrective surgical plan which may include laser ASA, laser corneoplastique and or laser-lens based techniques including combinations if required to result in unaided 20/20 vision.
Results: Outcomes of 20/20 uncorrected were possible in these cases which otherwise would have headed for more interventional surgeries and or relegated to a life time of poor vision.
Conclusion: Using these elegant and least interventional techniques, refractive surgery complications can be reversed back to 20/20. These concepts and innovative applications, including combinations can provide a much needed relief for cases with complications not only in attempting to help them but actually aiming for unaided emmetropia.
