Transplant-Sparing Visual Rehabilitation of a Herpetic Corneal Scar Using Refractively Planned Surface Excimer Laser Ablation in a Commercial Pilot: A Case Report

2026-08-10

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background: </h4> and Clinical Significance: Herpes simplex virus (HSV) keratitis is an important infectious cause of corneal visual impairment. Following resolution of active disease, stromal scarring may produce not only loss of corneal transparency but also irregular astigmatism and optical distortion that persist despite conventional correction. Spectacles, specialty contact lenses, phototherapeutic kerate...
