2019, International Journal of Biological MacromoleculesCitation Excerpt :To prevent this complication fibrin glue was used which prevent epithelial ingrowth and its treatment include flap reattachment and debridement. Various cases including the successful treatment of flap reattachment have been discussed where there was no occurrence of epithelial ingrowth or accumulation of fluid in interface [68–70]. Other applications besides these surgeries are amniotic membrane transplantation, limbal cell transplantation, treating keratoplasty, treating epithelial ingrowth and flap dislocation etc. [71,72].

2016, JCRS Online Case ReportsCitation Excerpt :Laser in situ keratomileusis is preferred by many clinicians because of the rapid recovery of vision and reduced postoperative discomfort.4 However, the corneal flap that is made during the procedure can lead to epithelial ingrowth.5–12 Early flap dislocation 1 to 2 days after surgery is a well-known complication, with a reported incidence of 1% to 2%.2,13
