Inhaltsangabe
The ability to effectively manage complications and complex cases is essential for the success of any LASIK practice. Complex Cases with LASIK provides a comprehensive review of some of the most common and many of the most challenging LASIK cases, so that every LASIK surgeon can feel confident managing complex surgical strategies and outcomes.
This book represents a collection of more than 85 complex LASIK cases from the world's most prominent refractive surgeons who have a combined experience of over 200,000 LASIK procedures. Common LASIK complications such as epithelial ingrowth and flap striae are addressed, as well as the less common but difficult complications of central islands, buttonhole flaps, LASIK interface keratitis, and irregular astigmatism. LASIK contraindications are also reviewed to demonstrate complex case outcomes.
The complex cases are divided into categories and each subsection contains a summary that describes the current concepts for those problems. Each complex case starts with a standard data page outlining the critical case information. The case presentation includes clinical, intraoperative, and postoperative photographs, as well as relevant topographies. Each case is followed by an editorial comment summarizing the key points and highlighting the pearls and pitfalls.
This book is an essential resource for both the aspiring and experienced LASIK surgeon.
