Abstract
This is a case report of acute hydrops in a patient with post-laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) ectasia treated with compression sutures. A patient with post-LASIK ectasia presented with acute hydrops in the left eye. Full-thickness compression sutures were applied to appose the edges of the Descemet tear, and this resulted in a rapid resolution of stromal edema and interface fluid. The patient had the best distance visual acuity of 6/18 at the last follow-up. Compression sutures only were useful in this case to hasten the resolution of stromal edema and interface fluid.
