ABSTRACT
Background: refractive errors can be corrected by refractive surgery.Objective: to describe the results of the laser-assisted subepithelial keratomileusis combined with the use of mitomycin C.
Methods: a descriptive, prospective study was carried out in the Refractive Surgery office of the Ophthalmological Center of the University Hospital Manuel Ascunce Domenech, in Camagüey, from March 2016 to March of 2017. The study universe consisted of 91 patients (178 eyes) who attended the refractive surgery consultation with a diagnosis of myopia and / or simple myopic astigmatisms or compounds that met the inclusion criteria; a form was applied to collect the data. The results were related to the following variables: visual acuity without correction, better corrected and spherical equivalent preoperative and postoperative after a month, three, six and twelve months, and complications.
Results: it was most frequent the age group between 20 and 30 years old, the female sex and the composite myopic astigmatism. Visual acuity without correction and better corrected were equated to one year after surgery, and the spherical equivalent decreased in a representative way when approaching emmetropia. Corneal Opacity was the most frequent complication followed by prolonged corneal de-epithelization.
onclusions: the best corrected visual acuity preoperatively and without postoperative correction were equated to the year of the surgical intervention. The spherical equivalent decreased representatively and approached the emmetropia to the twelve months after surgery. Corneal Opacity was the most frequent complication followed by prolonged corneal de-epithelization.
