Blade source effect on laser in situ keratomileusis flap thickness with the Amadeus I microkeratome.
PURPOSE To determine the effect of different blades on laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) flap thickness created with the Amadeus I microkeratome (Ziemer Ophthalmic Systems). SETTING Emory University Department of Ophthalmology and Emory Vision, Atlanta, Georgia, USA. METHODS This retrospective nonrandomized comparative case study from January 2005 through June 2006 compared LASIK flap th...
متن کاملThe effect of flap thickness on corneal biomechanics after myopic laser in situ keratomileusis using the M-2 microkeratome
Purpose The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of flap thickness on corneal biomechanics after myopic laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK). Methods This is a prospective controlled non-randomized, institutional study. Patients underwent either epi-LASIK with mitomycin (advanced surface ablation [ASA]), thin-flap LASIK (90 µm head), or thick-flap LASIK (130 µm head). In ASA, the...
متن کاملFlap complications in our learning curve of laser in situ keratomileusis using the Hansatome microkeratome.
PURPOSE To determine the incidence and the type of flap complications in our initial series of eyes undergoing laser in situ keratomileusis and the impact of microkeratome-related complications on best spectacle-corrected visual acuity. METHODS We reviewed the charts of the 630 consecutive eyes operated in the Refractive Surgery Department of Cerrahpasa Medical School, University of Istanbul,...
متن کاملContralateral assessment of sub-Bowman keratomileusis (SBK) microkeratome suction duration on laser-assisted in-situ keratomileusis (LASIK) flap characteristics
PURPOSE To describe the effect of prolonging the standard suction duration during laser-assisted in-situ keratomileusis (LASIK) and its effect on flap thickness and hinge length using sub-Bowman keratomileusis (SBK) microkeratome. METHODS Fifty-six eyes (28 patients) were included and divided into 2 groups; Group-A: eyes with flatter corneas (36 eyes, 18 patients) and mean keratometric readin...
متن کاملFactors Influencing Corneal Flap Thickness in Laser In Situ Keratomileusis with a Femtosecond Laser
PURPOSE To evaluate factors responsible for the variability between intended and achieved corneal-flap thickness during femtosecond laser-assisted laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK). METHODS A prospective, nonrandomized, case study was performed on 35 eyes of 18 consecutive patients who underwent LASIK surgery using the 60 kHz femtosecond laser microkeratome. Eyes were assigned to three dif...
