To determine the efficacy and the predictability of refractive keratotomy in the myopic astigmatism.15 patients (23 eyes) who had been operated on with myopic astigmatism; 4 eyes with simple astigmatism and 19 eyes with compound astigmatism, 1 patient had myopia at one eye and myopic astigmatism at the other. It were performed tangential incisions ("T"), curved incisions ("C") and simple Ruiz with or without radial incisions. The patients were reviewed after 3.6 and 12 month from the operation.Better visual acuity with no correction. The only postoperative complication was under correction.Refractive keratotomy is recommended in myopic astigmatism and especially with anisometropia.
