Post laser-assisted in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) ectasia is a rare and unpredictable complication after LASIK. Corneal collagen crosslinking (CXL) has emerged as a promising technique to address this complication. Our study evaluates the long-term efficacy of CXL for post-LASIK ectasia in an Australian setting.
