title: [Correction of secondary anisometropia after retinal detachment and LASIK surgery].
abstract: METHODS
  A male with cylindrical anisometropia secondary to retinal detachment (RD) surgery in the right eye (OD) was referred for contact lens (CL) fitting. His refraction was OD -1.25 -2.75 x 60 degrees VA 1.0 and OS +0.25 VA 1.2. He was complaining of diplopia with spectacles. Seven years prior to the RD surgery, he had undergone LASIK without complications. The diplopia was eliminated after a CL was fitted according to his corneal topography.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  RD surgery can cause anisometropic refractive changes. In patients with diplopia and asthenopia, spectacles are not well tolerated. CL fitting according to post-LASIK corneal geometry succeeded in refractive correction with less anisometropic symptoms.
