Abstract
Individual preoperative and operative factors did not in and of themselves increase the risk for ectasia. Unmeasured and unknown factors that affect the individual cornea's biomechanical stability, in combination with some suspected risk factors as well as the current inability to identify corneas at risk for developing ectatic disorders, probably account for most eyes that develop ectasia today.
