Resumo
Purpose: The aim of this study was to evaluate exclusion criteria in screening patients for refractive surgery. Methods: Patients screened for initial refractive surgery by a single surgeon at the Cole Eye Institute (Cleveland Clinic) between 2007 and 2012 were reviewed. Exclusion criteria for patients who were not offered refractive surgery based on history and/or examination parameters were analyzed. Results: A total of 1067 refractive candidates were enrolled in the study. Five hundred nineteen (48.6%) were male and 548 (51.4%) were female with a mean age of 39 +/- 12 (range, 17-78) years. Refractive surgery was performed in 657 (61.6%) patients, and photorefractive keratectomy was considered the best option for 106 (9.9%) patients. Four hundred ten (38.4%) of all screened patients did not have refractive surgery, and 134 of these patients (12.6%) were considered to have contraindications for laser in situ keratomileusis and photorefractive keratectomy. Among the excluded patients, 69 (51.5%) were male and 65 (48.5%) were female with a mean age of 40 +/- 14 (range, 18-78) years. Abnormal corneal topography (34.3%) and low or insufficient corneal thickness (23.1%) were the most common reasons for exclusion. High myopia (10.5%) and (insipient or definite) cataract (9.7%) were also common reasons for exclusion. Other common factors for exclusion were high hyperopia (3.7%), need to wear reading glasses after surgery (3.7%), and severe dry eye unresponsive to treatment (3.7%). Conclusions: Abnormal corneal topography and low, or insufficient, corneal thickness remain the most common exclusion factors for corneal refractive surgery. Factors such as cataract, too high of correction, and severe dry eye are also common reasons for exclusion of patients.
