Abstract:
A study of corneal healing after radial keratotomy was conducted under scanning electron microscopy in 28 papio-papio baboons. The appearance of the incisions after follow-ups ranging from one hour to three and a half years postoperatively permits to emit some hypotheses regarding the precise mechanisms of action of radial keratotomy, as well as those governing any functional or anatomical complications susceptible to occur after the operation.
