To report three cases of adenoviral keratoconjunctivitis in patients who have undergone photorefractive keratectomy and that just developed subepithe lial infiltrates. Methods. Description of patients that developed postoperative adenoviral keratoconjunctivitis after photorefractive keratectomy without influe nce in the final visual outcome. Results. All patients presented adenoviral kera toconjunctivitis 2-3 months after refractive surgery. They developed multiple p inpoint subepithelial infiltrates in six eyes, without haze development. The final uncorrected visual acuity was better or equal to 20/30. Conclusion. Although patients undergoing photorefractive ker atectomy might develop severe corneal scarring following ocular infections, such events may follow their natural evolution.展开更多

We report on contact lens fitting for visual rehabilitation in patient s after open globe injury. Patients: From 2000 to 2003, contact lenses were fitt ed unilaterally for the visual rehabilitation in 13 patients after open globe in jury. In three patients we found unilateral aphakia, in 8 patients a high or irr egular astigmatism after penetrating or autorotation keratoplasty and in two pat ients a traumatic aniridia, in one case combined with aphakia. Results: 11 rigid contact lenses were fitted with different designs of the front and back surface as well as two iris-print lenses. In 11 patients (86%) a good visual rehabili tation was achieved with an increase of visual acuity up to 9 lines while obtain ing a good contact lens tolerance. One patient wearing an iris-print contact le ns was unable to tolerate the contact lens due to its thickness and its weight. In another patient fitting of a contact lens was not possible because of the com plicated corneal condition. We did not observed severe contact lens complication s at any time. Conclusions: In addition to operative procedures for visual rehab ilitation after open globe injuries, the use of contact lenses is another possib le procedure for refractive correction. Different problems such as ametropia fol lowing aphakia, irregular or high astigmatism or aniridia can be solved with goo d visual results, good tolerance and less complications.展开更多
