Is an operated eye still myopic?
If, once the patient is stable and has enough age, the patient undergoes a refractive surgery, it is important to remember that the rest of the eye’s structures remain myopic. That’s why the retina might still suffer a retinal detachment or a myopic macular degeneration, why glaucoma is still a possibility or why cataracts might as well appear before the usual age.
