[Laser in situ keratomileusis for correction of myopia].
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the efficacy and safety of laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) for the correction of myopia. METHODS A total of 429 eyes with preoperative refraction of -2.00 to -28.00 diopters were treated with LASIK and followed up for more than 12 months. Based on the refraction, the patients were divided into 3 groups: Group I, -2.00, to -8.00 diopters, 179 eyes; Groups II, -8.25 t...
متن کاملCorneal irregular astigmatism after laser in situ keratomileusis for myopia.
AIMS To quantitatively evaluate the changes in corneal irregular astigmatism after laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) in relation to the amount of laser ablation. METHODS In 189 eyes of 116 patients undergoing LASIK for myopia, corneal topography was obtained before and 1 month after surgery. Using Fourier harmonic analysis of the topography data, corneal irregular astigmatism (asymmetry an...
متن کاملTherapeutic alloplastic laser in situ keratomileusis for myopia.
BACKGROUND A new technique, therapeutic alloplastic laser in situ keratomileusis to correct high myopia, is introduced. METHODS Therapeutic alloplastic laser in situ keratomileusis consists of neutral homoplastic epikeratoplasty combined with superficial keratectomy performed with an excimer laser and/or a microkeratome. Indications for the technique are: myopia over 20 diopters (D), eyes wit...
متن کاملLaser in situ keratomileusis retreatment for residual myopia and astigmatism.
PURPOSE To evaluate the visual and refractive results of laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) retreatment on eyes with residual myopia with or without astigmatism. METHODS LASIK retreatment was performed on 35 eyes of 23 patients for correction of residual myopia, with or without astigmatism, with a mean manifest spherical equivalent refraction of -2.17+/-0.82 D (range, -1.00 to -3.87 D) and ...
متن کاملlaser sub-epithelial keratectomy vs laser in situ keratomileusis for correction of myopia
purpose: to compare long-term results of excimer laser sub-epithelial keratectomy (lasek) and laser in situ keratomileusis (lasik) for low to moderate myopia. methods: in a comparative case series, visual outcomes in 415 lasik-treated eyes (212 patients) and 359 lasek-treated eyes (194 patients) with myopia ranging from -1.5 to -5 diopters (d) and astigmatism up to -2.75 d using a flying spot e...
