PTK stands for Photo-Therapeutic Keratectomy: this surgery uses a laser to treat eyesight problems, which are mainly diseases of the surface of the cornea.The aim of this procedure is to treat surface level corneal disease and NOT to remove the need to wear glasses or contact lenses....
Fine corneal opacities and refractile microcysts, a frequent consequence of high-dose systemic cytarabine chemotherapy, are densely situated in the central region of the cornea. Subjective symptom-driven case reports of microcysts frequently lack detailed information on the condition's early development...
The surgeons first removed as much pannus tissue and nodules as possible using a hockey knife. Laser ablation was then performed with repeated application of masking fluid to smooth the cornea. Intended laser ablation depth was between 10 µm and 100 ...
Forty-six pterygia were surgically removed using a modified "bare sclera" technique. Additionally, an excimer laser PTK was performed using the immersion method to smooth the irregular surface of the cornea. Follow-up was 6 to 10 months. We found 24 recurrences. In patients with pterygia of mo...
This study investigated the TGFBI gene mutation types in outpatients clinically diagnosed with granular corneal dystrophy (GCD) prior to phototherapeutic keratectomy (PTK), also calculated the mutation rate of subjects with normal corneas, but positive f
