[Studies on possible ocular refraction changes after use of Nd: YAG laser].
In 3 human eyes with intraocular tumors, before enucleation, 300-350 photodisruptions were made in the corneal stroma using Nd: YAG laser. Coagulations were placed in 1/3 superficial part of corneal stroma along circles of 5 mm and 6 mm in diameter. Histological examinations revealed spherical empty spaces and cracks of the surrounding stroma in the area coagulations. Corneal refraction examined with Javal's ophthalmometer revealed decrease 1.2-1/4 D, maintained after 24 and 48 hours.
