Abstract

CONSTANT EVOLUTION OF SCIENCE TRANSLATES TO EVOLVING TECHNOLOGICAL AND SURGICAL RECOURSES TO DEAL WITH THE NEWER CHALLENGES. EPITHELIAL MAPPING HAS ESTABLISHED ITS STAND AND DIFFERENTIATED ITSELF IN THE PLANNING OF REFRACTIVE SURGERY. DISASTER MANAGEMENT WITH FLAPS AND ACHIEVING REFRACTIVE ACCURACY IS A CHALLENGE BUT NOT UNBEATABLE AND WOULD BE THRASHED OUT. INTERFACE ISSUES COULD MANIFEST IN VARIED FORMATS AND THE RIGHT COURSE OF MANAGEMENT WOULD BE HIGHLIGHTED. CLINCHING THE TOPOGRAPHIC CLUES DEFINES THE RIGHT SURGICAL APPROACH BETWEEN REGRESSION AND ECTASIA AND WOULD BE DISCUSSED PIECEMEAL. PHAKIC IOLS IN KERATOCONUS COULD BRING A TWIST IN THE THOUGHT PROCESS AND MANAGEMENT AND RELEVANT TIPS HAVE BEEN ENUNCIATED. TREADING THE DIFFICULT TERRAIN OF IMPROVING QUALITY OF VISION IN ABNORMAL CORNEAS WITH TOPOGUIDED APPROACH WOULD BE ELUCIDATED FOLLOWED BY DISCUSSION OF A SERIES OF CHALLENGING MOMENTS IN REFRACTIVE SURGERY WOULD BE THE FINAL STROKE OF THIS REFRACTIVE SURGICAL COURSE.
