Abstract:
We report the case of a 43-year old woman who developed retinal detachment (RD) after radial keratotomy (RK) for the correction of a 7 D myopia. Further flattening in the corneal topography with a decrease in myopia was noted following RD surgery. Although no cause-effect relationship between RK and RD can be stated, it is imperative to inform the patients that RK only corrects the refractive aspect of myopia.
