Can a topography scan or slit lamp or pentacam detect if someone has had custom topography guided surface ablation like Lesik surgery I'm curious how doctors can tell if this procedure was done before
Yes, corneal topography (including Pentacam) and slit lamp examinations can often, but not always, detect if someone has had custom topography-guided surface ablation (like LASIK or PRK). The specific features that indicate past surgery and the degree to which it's detectable depend on the type of procedure, the extent of tissue removal, and the individual's healing response.
