Corneal Scars: A Refractive Surgery

Show Description +

Anterior corneal scars affect vision directly by blocking the optical pathway and indirectly by altering the shape, and hence, refractive status. Arun C. Gulani, MD, shares several cases of in-corneal and on-corneal scars and explains how vision can be restored by a resistance guided peeling technique and laser.

This video was presented during the 2015 Intraocular Implant and Refractive Surgery Convention (IIRSI) Film Festival. It won first place for the "Best in Other Specialties" category.
