Ultrabiomicroscopy (UBM) in flap dislocation following LASIK: a case report.
OBJECTIVE
To describe postoperative laser-assisted in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) flap dislocation occurred after trauma


METHODS
Ultrabiomicroscopy (UBM) is used to obtain a high-resolution imaging of the cornea.


RESULTS
The UBM results are presented and compared with histologic and confoscan findings


CONCLUSIONS
The technique is useful and easy to perform, offering more opportunities to study the anatomical changes in LASK flap dislocation occurred after trauma.
