ABSTRACT
Surgery with Excimer laser is a minor, outpatient intervention that is performed extraocularly and allows the patient to not require hospital admission. The role of nursing staff is important in this process. During the year 2019, a thematic review was carried out on photo refractive keratectomy and nursing procedures in this type of technique, based on specialized bibliography, published mainly in the last 5 years. The search was performed in the databases: Pubmed, Google Scholar and Medline, selecting descriptors in Spanish and English. Nursing care protocols and procedures were found in Spain, Chile and Colombia. In Cuba, management schemes for ophthalmological conditions have been indicated. Procedures that were performed at the Surgical Medical Research Center are exposed. Photorefractive keratectomy is performed by modifying the cornea with the excimer laser to correct refractive defects such as nearsightedness, farsightedness, or astigmatism. Nursing procedures have been developed from the preoperative to the post-operative medical consultation and these have been aimed at reinforcing knowledge of the procedures, as well as the medical indications for the patient, teaching them to perform cures and self-care actions.REFERENCES
