PURPOSE: The aim of this study was to describe the indications and outcomes of flap amputation after laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) at a referral-based institution.
METHODS: In this retrospective consecutive case series, medical records of patients who underwent LASIK flap amputation at Mayo Clinic, Rochester, MN, between January 1, 1998, and January 31, 2023, were reviewed.
RESULTS: Fifteen eyes (15 patients) underwent flap amputation during the study period. The median age was 45 years (range, 25-71 years), and 8 patients (53%) were men. The median uncorrected visual acuity before flap amputation was 20/200 (range 20/40-hand motions). Indications for flap amputation included epithelial ingrowth (n = 6, 40%), infectious keratitis (n = 6, 40%), diffuse lamellar keratitis (n = 1, 7%), vegetative foreign body (n = 1, 7%), and astigmatism from fixed flap striae (n = 1, 7%). The median duration of follow-up was 8 months (range 1-234 months). Subsequent corneal interventions included chelation of calcific band keratopathy (n = 1, 7%), lamellar keratoplasty (n = 1, 7%), penetrating keratoplasty (n = 2, 18%), keratoprosthesis (n = 1, 7%), and rigid contact lens wear (n = 4, 27%). The final median best visual acuity was 20/25 (range 20/20-20/200). Compared with noninfectious indications for flap amputation, eyes with infectious indications had worse baseline median uncorrected visual acuity (hand motions vs. 20/63, P < 0.001), were more likely to undergo major corneal surgical intervention (50% vs. 11%), and had worse final median best visual acuity (20/50 vs. 20/20, P = 0.018).
CONCLUSIONS: LASIK flap amputation is sometimes necessary to control threatening corneal diseases. Excellent visual outcomes were achieved in most cases, albeit with additional intervention or rigid contact lens wear.
