Refractive surgery has become increasingly popular, and many candidates for refractive surgery are myopic. Therefore, we sought to review the aspects of patient evaluation in those who have undergone refractive surgery for myopia concerned with the detection and monitoring of glaucoma development. We identified several important elements of patient evaluation for glaucoma after refractive surgery. These included the need for both structural and functional assessments before and after surgery, and the importance of monitoring for postoperative biomechanical changes in the cornea and their impact on intraocular pressure.
