Objective To evaluate the effect of laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) for myopia as well as changes in the macula after surgery. Methods This was a prospective clinical study. Thirty patients (60 eyes) were selected randomly to undergo LASIK. Spectral domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) was used to evaluate the total macular volume (TMV) and central retinal thickness (CRT) before surgery, and 10 days and 1 month after surgery. Data were analyzed by a repeated measures design and Pearson correlation analysis. Results Preoperatively, mean BCVA was -0.063±0.041, mean TMV was 7.31±0.31 mm3, and mean CRT was 220.3±21.1 μm. Ten days after surgery, mean BCVA was -0.043±0.081, mean TMV was 7.32±0.26 mm3, and mean CRT was 221.6±20.8 μm. One month after surgery, mean BCVA was -0.074±0.061, mean TMV was 7.35±0.29 mm3, and mean CRT was 219.8±22.9 μm. CRT had changed significantly 10 days postoperatively compared to preoperative measurements and postoperative measurements at 30 days (P<0.05), and TMV measurements changed significantly between 10 and 30 days postoperatively (P<0.05). The variations in TMV and CRT do not correlate significantly with the change in spherical equivalent. Conclusion Mild macular edema is common shortly after LASIK, but no association with a loss of BCVA has been established.
