OBJECTIVE: To evaluate corneal reinnervation after different techniques of refractive
surgery. STUDY DESIGN: Retrospective evaluation of corneal sensivity after keratotomy,
epikeratophakia and photorefractive keratectomy. The measurements were performed with
the Draeger electromechanical optical-controlled aesthesiometer which is extremely precise
and independent of external changes in temperature and humidity. One measurement point
was in the corneal centre of patients after radial keratotomy and photorefractive keratectomy …
