Area of Science:

  • Ophthalmology
  • Refractive Surgery

Background:

  • Radial keratotomy is a surgical procedure to correct myopia.
  • Postoperative visual disturbances can occur following refractive surgery.

Observation:

  • A physician experienced binocular diplopia after undergoing radial keratotomy.
  • The diplopia presented as a new visual symptom post-surgery.

Findings:

  • The differential diagnosis for binocular diplopia post-radial keratotomy was explored.
  • Management strategies focused on correcting the diplopia with specialized spectacles.

Implications:

  • This case highlights the importance of considering refractive surgery complications in diplopia diagnosis.
  • Appropriate spectacle prescription can effectively manage post-keratotomy diplopia.
