Abstract
We present 3 cases of flap loss within 2 weeks of unilateral laser in situ keratomileusis. In all patients, spontaneous regeneration of the epithelial layer, covering the ablated stroma, was expected. In 2 patients, the best spectacle-corrected visual acuity recovered to 20/25 within 6 months and in 1 patient, a contact lens was fitted 6 months after the accident, restoring visual acuity to 20/25. The 6-month follow-up and the contact lens fitting technique are described.
