Effects of Antiglaucoma Drugs on Refractive Outcomes in Eyes with Myopic Regression after Laser In Situ Keratomileusis

The preliminary data show that antiglaucoma drugs are effective for the reduction of the refractive regression, especially of the spherical errors, after LASIK. It is suggested that backward movement of the cornea may occur, possibly flattening the corneal curvature by lowering the IOP. Reduction of the IOP may contribute to improving regression after keratorefractive surgery.
