Purpose:

To report a distinct clinical syndrome, central toxic keratopathy, as a cause of early postoperative corneal opacity.

Methods:

12 eyes from 6 patients who presented with decreased vision 3 to 9 days postoperatively accompanied by central corneal opacity, corneal melting and hyperopic shift are presented. They underwent PRK (3 patients), LASEK (1patient) and Epi-LASIK (2 patients); and mitomycin C (0.02% dilution) had been applied for all of them.

Results:

The opacification persisted for a minimum of two months to a maximum of 6 months before clearing. 1-2 line loss of BCVA persisted in two patients after 6 months.

Conclusion:

In central toxic keratopathy despite the clearance of opacity in most of cases, an irreversible complication might remain in few patients.
