Core Tip This study highlights the factors influencing the need for multiple laser-assisted in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) enhancements, including refractive error severity, corneal thickness, and time to recurrence. Patients with mild refractive errors, higher cylindrical errors, and thicker corneas are more likely to require additional procedures. Early recurrence of refractive error serves as a predictor for subsequent enhancements, emphasizing the importance of careful patient selection and counseling for long-term LASIK success.
