Résumé
We report the clinical manifestations and outcomes in 4 patients who experienced premature gas-bubble leakage during raster lamellar dissection during IntraLase femtosecond laser corneal flap creation. Three patients experienced a full-thickness epithelial breakthrough and the fourth, a flap tear. The patient who experienced the flap tear was unable to have laser in situ keratomileusis successfully. The flap complications did not result in a decreased best corrected visual acuity in any patient but may have resulted in epithelial ingrowth in one and a corneal scar and microstriae in another. Potential predisposing factors for epithelial breakthrough, the incidence of epithelial breakthrough, and methods for avoiding and salvaging traumatic corneal flaps are discussed.
