https://www.selleckchem.com/ PURPOSE To report a diffuse lamellar keratitis (DLK) cluster attributed to autoclave reservoir biofilm and to review the risk and prevention of DLK and toxic anterior segment syndrome (TASS) caused by such biofilms. SETTING Refractive Surgery Center, University of California, Berkeley. DESIGN Observational case-control study and review of literature. METHODS Eyes were evaluated for DLK following laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) over a 5-year period. Multiple changes in surgical and operating room protocols were prompted by a cluster of DLK cases. The autoclave reservoir chamber wall was cultured for microbial contamination. The MEDLINE database was used to identify relevant past publications. RESULTS From January 7, 2010, to December 18, 2014, 1115 eyes received LASIK. Between September 2, 2010, and June 11, 2012, 147 eyes of 395 LASIK cases developed DLK (37.2%). Systematic modifications in surgical protocols were unsuccessful in ending the prolonged cluster of DLK cases until the STATIM 2000 autoclave was replaced with a new STATIM autoclave and a reservoir sterilization and surveillance protocol implemented. Over the subsequent 30 months, DLK incidence was reduced to 2.2% (14 DLK cases from 632 total LASIK cases, P less then .0001). The retired autoclave reservoir chamber wall cultures grew Pseudomonas aeruginosa and the Burkholderia cepacia complex. CONCLUSIONS Fluid reservoirs of tabletop steam autoclaves can readily develop polymicrobial biofilms harboring microbial pathogens, whose inert molecular byproducts can cause DLK and TASS when introduced to the eye by surgical instruments. Stringent reservoir cleaning and maintenance may significantly reduce this risk by preventing and removing these biofilms.PURPOSE To evaluate the precision of elevation and wavefront aberration measurements with the Pentacam HR. SETTING Flinders University, Australia DESIGN Instrument evaluation study METHODS A randomly selected eye of 100 participa
