7 cases of CLR corneal scarring, due to infection, were treated with a surface excimer laser transepithelial ablation in order to remove the scar tissue and normalize the refractive power of the cornea, using a topography-guided customization platform (Alcon/Wavelight).At 3 months postop, significantly improved corneal transparency was noted and a keratoplasty procedure was avoided in all cases.
