Secondary ectasia following laser correction remains a formidable complication of keratorefractive surgery. Statistics on ectasia following various keratorefractive interventions show a higher incidence of ectasia after flap-based techniques of laser vision correction (LASIK, Femto LASIK) compared to surface ablation techniques (PRK, Trans PRK, LASIK), also the increasing number of ectasia cases after lenticular surgery should raise concern. Previously existing keratoconus may play a significant role in the development of postoperative ectasia, more so than acknowledged in the literature, highlighting the importance of early detection not only of preclinical keratoconus stages but also identifying predisposing factors for keratoconus development in eyes with normal keratotopographic characteristics. Recent advancements in early ectasia detection utilize artificial intelligence capabilities to analyze corneal biomechanical properties and geometry to identify corneal predisposition to ectasia. This article analyzes our experience using the Pentacam + Corvis ST diagnostic complex in patient selection for keratorefractive interventions.
