LASIK may skew eye scans: new study investigates
NCT ID NCT05856786
First seen Apr 02, 2026 · Last updated Jun 20, 2026 · Updated 10 times
Summary
This pilot study looks at whether refractive surgeries like LASIK change the results of optical coherence tomography (OCT), a common eye scan used to monitor conditions like glaucoma. Researchers will measure the thickness of the retina and other eye layers before and after surgery in 33 patients. The goal is to help doctors accurately interpret OCT scans after such procedures.
