Abstract
Aim. To describe a clinical case of excimer laser correction of high degree mixed astigmatism with high visual results and a history of stable postoperative refraction. Case report. A 22-year-old patient with high degree mixed astigmatism in the right eye and moderate myopia with compound moderate myopic astigmatism in the left eye was treated with LASIK technology using the Aspheric ablation program. High visual functions were obtained in both eyes (1.0) and the results were stable during three years of follow-up. Conclusions. Modern technologies of refractive surgery provide high functional results and safety in patients with high degrees of astigmatism, improve the quality of life and can be the method of choice when determining the method of astigmatism correction. Key words: excimer laser correction; astigmatism; LASIK.
