Treatment of corneal ectasia with CAIRS improved visual, refractive, topographic, and tomographic parameters. Epithelial thickening central to CAIRS, along with anterior stromal flattening is postulated to contribute to tomographic flattening and regularization. <b>[<i>J Refract Surg</i>. 2023;39(11):767-776.]</b>.
