Abstract

FD-OCT is an accurate method of predicting the depth of PTK required to remove visually significant diffuse haze in patients with granular corneal dystrophy type 2. We advocate the use of slit-lamp biomicroscopy after the initial 30-μm ablation to determine the necessity for any further ablation.
