title: [Lasik after corneal ulcer].
abstract: Our case report presents successful treatment of corneal ulcer caused by the most common pathogen of infectious keratitis--Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Treatment was followed by LASIK as a final refractive error solution. 20 year old patient (contact lens wearer) was admitted for acute infectious corneal ulcer in her left eye. Her visual acuity was 0.5 partial with full correction. Intensive local treatment with Tobramycin, Ofloxacin and Scopolamin was started. After healing of infectious focuses, local steroids (Fluorometholonin acetas) were used to clear residual stromal haze. Refractive error was corrected after stabilisation using LASIK. Longstanding visual acuity is thanks to the early and intensive therapy 1.0 bilaterally.
