What are my options if another laser procedure is not safe for my corneas?
If further corneal laser treatment is not appropriate, glasses, contact lenses, or an implantable lens may be considered, depending on the eye. If corneal ectasia is suspected, stabilizing the cornea and managing the underlying condition take priority over additional refractive surgery.
