Debris Under the Flap After LASIK

You probably won’t find “debris” in a LASIK informed consent. But studies have shown the presence of debris under the flap in 100% of eyes after LASIK. Debris under flap is definitely one of many LASIK complications.

Problems from LASIK? File a MedWatch report with the FDA online. Alternatively, you may call FDA at 1-800-FDA-1088 to report by telephone, download the paper form and either fax it to 1-800-FDA-0178 or mail it to the address shown at the bottom of page 3, or download the MedWatcher Mobile App for reporting LASIK problems to the FDA using a smart phone or tablet.
