| Resumen: |
Purpose: To analyze the effect of ocular residual astigmatism (ORA) on the effectiveness of LASIK for treating high myopic astigmatism. Methods: This is an observational, cross-sectional study. We studied 116 consecutive myopic eyes with ?3 diopters (D) or more of astigmatism that underwent LASIK surgery. The magnitude of uncorrected residual refractive astigmatism 3 months postoperatively was measured. Results: The mean preoperative cylinder was ?4.0±0.83 D (range, ?7.5 to ?3 D) and the mean preoperative ORA was 0.82±0.5 D. The mean residual refractive cylinder 3 months postoperatively was ?0.78±0.83 D (range, ?3 to 0 D). No correlation was found between ORA and the refractive cylinder 3 months postoperatively (P=0.6). Conclusion: In eyes with high myopic astigmatism undergoing LASIK, ORA was not correlated with the residual postoperative cylinder. |
