Abstract

PURPOSE

We report a case of lipid keratopathy in a radial keratotomy incision that was successfully managed with radiofrequency diathermy of the neovascular pedicle responsible for the lipid deposition.

OBSERVATIONS

No perioperative or postoperative complications were noted. Following the procedure, the lesion showed significant decrease in lipid deposits and opacification along with disappearance of the neovascular pedicle.

CONCLUSIONS AND IMPORTANCE

Radiofrequency diathermy of neovascular pedicle may represent an effective and safe alternative treatment option for treating lipid keratopathy. This is a first ever report of lipid keratopathy inside a radial keratotomy incision that was successfully managed by radiofrequency diathermy.
