Abstract
PRESENTATION OF A CASE OF A PATIENT WHO HAS TWO EXTREME REFRACTIVE ERRORS, WHICH HAVE NECESSITATED TWO DIFFERENT SURGICAL INTERVENTIONS FOR EACH EYE, THUS PREVENTING THE POSTOPERATORY COMPLICATIONS AS ECTASIA. THE 29 -YEAR-OLD PATIENT HAD BEEN DIAGNOSED WITH COMPOSED MIOPIC ASTIGMATISM, AND USING THEIR OWN CORRECTION HAD A VISUAL ACUITY OF 0.8. AS A RESULT OF THE TWO DIFFERENT SURGERIES, SHE HAS MANAGED TO HAVE A BETTER VISUAL ACUITY, WITHOUT ANY CORRECTION.
