Abstract
To report a case of rainbow glare following femtosecond laser-assisted LASIK (femto-LASIK) with the Wavelight FS-200 femtosecond laser (Alcon Laboratories, Inc., Fort Worth, TX). A patient was treated bilaterally for myopia with femto-LASIK using the FS-200 femtosecond laser. Postoperatively, he complained of rainbow glare in his right eye. Three months postoperatively, the induced grating pattern (hyperreflective spot-like zones corresponding to the surgeon-programmed spot and line separation distance of the FS-200 femtosecond laser) was demonstrated with confocal microscopy at the level of the flap interface in the right eye. This is the first report of rainbow glare following femto-LASIK with the FS-200 femtosecond laser documented with in vivo confocal microscopy.
