Editor's comment

This is an ectasia case with a high percentage of tissue altered, a thick flap thickness, and a low residual bed, and despite having had CXL, this patient's ectasia continued to progress.1 Most of the respondents considered that reasonable options for this patient would include regularization of the cornea through either a topography-guided PRK within the LASIK flap thickness, a DALK, or implantation of ICRS.2
