Femtosecond-assisted astigmatic keratotomy is predictable and precise but may occasionally lead to a full-thickness incision on the cornea and the attendant complications. The presence of an air bubble in the anterior chamber soon after creation of the keratotomy by the femtosecond laser may indicate a full-thickness incision. We present a case in which recognition of this clinical finding early in the procedure might have prevented undesirable complications, such as leakage of aqueous and the potential for intraocular infection.
飞秒辅助的散光性角膜切开术具有可预测性和精确性,但偶尔可能导致角膜全层切开和伴随的并发症。飞秒激光创建角膜切开术后不久前房出现气泡可能表明发生了全层切开。我们介绍了一个病例,在手术早期识别出这一临床发现可能防止了不良并发症,如房水渗漏和眼内感染的潜在风险。
