Factors 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...
متن کاملTraumatic corneal flap displacement after laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK)
BACKGROUND Laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) is the most common and popular procedure performed for the correction of refractive errors in the last two decades. We report a case of traumatic flap displacement with flap folding which occurred 3 years after LASIK was performed. Previous literature suggests that vision prognosis would be closely related to proper and prompt management of trauma...
متن کاملFlap tearing during lift-flap laser in situ keratomileusis retreatment.
A flap tear occurred during laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) retreatment using a flap-lifting technique in 1 eye of 2 patients 4 to 5 months after the primary procedure. In the first case, the tear occurred in a decentered, standard thickness flap (168 mum) in a location close to the corneal limbus and limbal vessels. In the second case, the tear occurred in a well-centered thin flap (116 m...
متن کاملNoncontact measurements of central corneal epithelial and flap thickness after laser in situ keratomileusis.
PURPOSE To investigate the changes in the epithelium and flap after laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK), when measured with optical coherence tomography (OCT). METHODS Twenty-eight eyes of 14 patients (age: 39.9 +/- 8.6 years) underwent LASIK. The central thickness of corneal epithelium and flap were measured with a real-time 1310 nm OCT 1 day, 1 week, and 1 month after surgery. A custom sof...
متن کاملPosterior corneal topographic changes after partial flap during laser in situ keratomileusis.
AIM To study the posterior corneal topographic changes in eyes with partial flaps during laser assisted in situ keratomileusis (LASIK). METHODS Case records of 16 patients, who had partial flap in one eye during LASIK (group 1) and uncomplicated surgery in the other eye (group 2), were studied. Following occurrence of partial flap intraoperatively, laser ablation was abandoned in all the eyes...
