Effects of Intense Pulsed Light Treatment on Dry Eye Disease After Keratorefractive Surgery: A Retrospective Cohort Study
Individuals with DED that previously underwent KRS presented a lower NITBUT and ocular surface staining recovery after IPL treatment compared to the non-KRS DED individuals, and KRS individuals have more risk factors for poor outcomes after IPL. Alternative DED treatment may be considered for the population with previous KRS.
