Abstract Objective To evaluate the clinical efficacy of topography-guided, customized ablation (T-CAT) in the treatment of corneal surface irregularity, and to objectively evaluate the visual quality of the patients who underwent radial keratotomy (RK). Methods This was a retrospective analysis. Clinical data of 23 cases (38 eyes) of severe irregular morphology of the corneal surface after RK surgery were collected. Among them, four eyes underwent topo-guided PRK and the remaining 34 eyes underwent topo-guided SBK. Patients were tested for uncorrected visual acuity (UCVA), best corrected visual acuity (BCVA), spherical equivalent (SE), topography, and intraocular pressure (IOP) before surgery and at 1 day, 1 week, 1 month, 3 months and 6 months after surgery for those underwent topography-guided SBK. Patients underwent topography-guided PRK were tested before surgery and 1 month, 3 months, 6 months after surgery. And there were 22 eyes also tested for objective visual quality analysis index (OQAS) before surgery and 3 months after the procedure. The intra- and postoperative complications were examined, and the SE, UCVA, BCVA and OQAS of 22 eyes were also analyzed. The data were analyzed with a paired sample t test. Results During the 6-month follow-up, no eye experienced a decrease in visual acuity. BCVA was 4.8-5.0(4.9±0.1) and UCVA was 4.8-5.0(4.9±0.1). Achieved SE refractions were less than ±1.00 D. The mean SE refractive change between 1 day and 6 months postoperation was -0.51±1.10 D for those underwent topography-guided SBK. The difference in SE refraction between postoperative day 1 and postoperative 6 months was less than 0.5 D in 20 eyes (53%) and less than 1.0 D in 31 eyes (91%). There was a statistically significant difference in the objective visual quality indices at 6 months after surgery compared with preoperative indices (t=-1.70, -2.45, 3.24, P<0.05) for the 22 eyes tested with OQAS. Conclusion T-CAT can provide an effective, safe, predictable and stable improvement for patients with an initial decline in visual quality after RK.
