Abstract
We report 2 cases of delayed epithelial healing in accommodative esotropia with high hyperopia after laser-assisted subepithelial keratectomy (LASEK). Persistent epithelial defects at the corneal center in both eyes of each patient completely healed between 3 weeks and 2 months postoperatively. Within 6 months, the esotropia was successfully corrected and vision was restored without a corneal opacity. High hyperopic correction in LASEK might be correlated with delayed epithelial wound healing.
