Abstract
With the mature of techniques and development of equipments in excimer laser corneal refractive surgery,the postoperative complications are decreasing gradually.As the center of cornea become thin after laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) and laser subepithelial keratomileusis ( LASEK ),the strength of cornea and the intraocular pressure relatively step down,which can cause cornea anterior protrusion more or less.Because the posterior surface which is not directly affected by surgical process and healing process,so it is usually used to evaluate the protrusion of cornea.As the application of.ophthalmic anterior segment imaging and analysis system,we can get more message of cornea posterior surface.The manifestation,principle and precautionary measures of corneal posterior surface anterior protrusion after the excimer laser corneal refractive surgery were reviewed. Key words: Excimer laser; Myopia; Posterior corneal surface; Anterior protrusion
