ABSTRACT
A 28-year-old woman scheduled to have photorefractive keratectomy [PRK] for the correction of moderate myopia in both eyes developed localized transient corneal edema centrally on the ablated area in one eye. The edema resolved within a week. Transient localized corneal edema at the ablated area can complicate PRK for the treatment of moderate myopia in corneas with normal preoperative corenal examination
