Résumé
Radial keratotomy (RK) was commonly performed in the 1980s and 1990s. We aimed to clarify the current status of post-RK refractive correction and treatment. We retrospectively reviewed the charts of 70 patients with a history of RK. Of the 70 patients, 44 were identified for clinical outcomes. Refractive or therapeutic intervention (rigid gas-permeable contact lens fit, spectacle prescription, corneal surgery, and use of pilocarpine hydrochloride for photophobia) was possible in 59% of patients with postoperative visual deterioration after RK; in the remaining 41%, therapeutic intervention was not possible. Rigid gas-permeable contact lens fit for corneal irregular astigmatism was the most common refractive intervention and was effective in 36% of cases in the university hospital.
