Multifocal Corneal Excimer Femtosecond Laser in situ Keratomileusis following Radial Keratotomy: A Case Report with Six Months of Follow-Up
We report the case of a 46-year-old female patient who was referred to our clinic (Orasis Eye Clinic, Reinach, Switzerland) seeking improvement of her distance and near visual acuity. Radial keratotomy (RK) was performed at a younger age on both eyes to correct -5 D myopia. The patient underwent a bilateral same-session multifocal corneal excimer femtosecond laser (Supracor) keratomileusis corr...
متن کاملLaser in situ Keratomileusis for Overcorrection After Radial Keratotomy.
PURPOSE To evaluate laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) for induced hyperopia after radial keratotomy. METHODS Twenty eyes had LASEK for induced hyperopia after radial keratotomy. All eyes were treated using the Nidek excimer laser (EC-5000) and the Hansatome microkeratome with a 905-mm ring and 180-mm plate. Hyperopic correction was done using a 5.5 to 7.5-mm ablation zone. RESULTS Mean p...
متن کاملComparison of corneal sensitivity, tear function and corneal staining following laser in situ keratomileusis with two femtosecond laser platforms
PURPOSE To evaluate longitudinal changes in corneal sensitivity, tear function, and corneal staining in patients who underwent laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) using two different femtosecond lasers. METHODS In a prospective, randomized clinical trial, contralateral eyes of 45 patients underwent flap creation by either VisuMax or IntraLase™ femtosecond laser. Corneal sensitivity, tear bre...
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...
متن کاملEleven-year follow-up of laser in situ keratomileusis.
PURPOSE To report the long-term (11-year) outcomes (stability and complications) of laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) in patients with high myopia. SETTING University refractive surgery center. METHODS Seven patients (4 with bilateral treatment and 3 with unilateral treatment) who had myopic LASIK and completed 11 years of follow-up were included in the study. RESULTS The mean age of t...
