Introduction:
corneal haze is a complication of refractive surgery, mainly of photorefractive keratectomy, caused by superficial scarring of the stroma.
Case report:
a 28-year-old patient with a general personal health history and eye disease history of myopia is presented. He presented a haze after a photorefractive keratectomy with marked involvement of visual acuity. One year after the surgery, without improvement despite medical treatment, it was decided to perform a phototherapeutic keratectomy.
Conclusions:
with the procedure performed, quality and visual acuity were significantly improved.
Palabras clave : corneal haze; photorefractive keratectomy.
