Long-Term Outcomes of Refractive Surgery Performed During the Military.

CONCLUSION: This is the first long-term study evaluating refractive surgery outcomes up to 17 years in a military population. Our study demonstrates safety after refractive surgery in the military with less than 0.1D increase in myopia per year and strong keratometric stability. Other changes in the eye may be the likely cause for this observed mild refractive shift. PMID: 31125090 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
