Özet

Photorefractive keratectomy (PRK) was performed on a 19-year-old man with hyperopic astigmatism end refractive accommodative esotropia, The patient was orthophoric while wearing spectacles, but had an esotropia of 30 prism dioptres at near and distance vision without spectacles, The best corrected visual acuity of the right eye was 20/50 and of the left eye was 20/20, The excessive accommodative convergence of the patient was eliminated by correcting the hyperopic refractive error by performing PRK, and the patient became orthophoric after the treatment.
