Abstract

The cornea contributes to most of the refractive power of the eye. Its transparency, regular shape, and smooth surface are crucial to preserve this function. After any epithelial and stromal wound, an immediate process starts to repair the wound and restore normal corneal structure and function. This wound healing response is a complex cascade of events that affect the predictability and stability of laser corneal refractive procedures.
