Abstract

This review analyzes the primary etiological factors of diffuse lamellar keratitis following various laser corneal refractive surgery techniques. The use of advanced diagnostic methods such as optical coherence tomography, confocal microscopy, and immunohistochemical methods has allowed for the identification of the main pathogenetic mechanisms underlying this condition, which will help improve the prevention, as well as assist with the development of optimal treatment strategies for this complication.

В обзоре представлен анализ основных этиологических факторов диффузного ламеллярного кератита после применения различных технологий лазерной кераторефракционной хирургии. Использование современных диагностических методов обследования — оптической когерентной томографии, конфокальной микроскопии, иммуногистохимических методов — позволило определить основные звенья патогенеза заболевания, что в дальнейшем должно способствовать профилактике и выработке оптимальной тактики лечения этого осложнения.

Keywords: confocal microscopy; corneal refractive surgery; diffuse lamellar keratitis; optical coherence tomography.
