| Abstract | PURPOSE: To evaluate the effect of combined medical treatment with anti-glaucoma eyedrops and 0.1% fluorometholone on visual acuity and refractive errors in patients complaining of blurred vision due to myopic regression after laser-assisted in-situ keratomileusis (LASIK) or laser-assisted sub-epithelial keratectomy (LASEK). METHODS: This study comprised 155 patients (155 eyes) who were diagnosed with myopic regression after LASIK or LASEK and received medical treatment from January 2015 to January 2016. The visual acuity and refractive errors were compared before and after medical treatment and evaluated to determine whether the results differ between LASIK and LASEK. RESULTS: The mean time of medical treatment was 64.1 ± 36.8 months after surgery. The responder group whose vision was improved and whose myopic error was decreased after medical treatment was comprised of 63 patients (41%). Their visual acuity in this group improved -0.21 ± 0.11 logMAR, and the amount of myopic error decreased 0.56 ± 0.32 diopters. The full responder group was 24 patients (15%), and the partial responder group was 39 patients (26%). The frequency of response to medical treatment was higher after LASIK than after LASEK, but the difference was not statistically significant. CONCLUSIONS: The combined medical treatment with anti-glaucoma eyedrops and 0.1% fluorometholone was effective in 41% of patients with regard to visual acuity improvement when used for post-LASIK or post-LASEK myopic regression. The medical treatment was effective after both LASIK and LASEK. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
