Posterior Corneal Surface Stability after Femtosecond Laser-Assisted Keratomileusis
The purpose of this study was to evaluate posterior corneal surface variation after femtosecond laser-assisted keratomileusis in patients with myopia and myopic astigmatism. Patients were evaluated by corneal tomography preoperatively and at 1, 6, and 12 months. We analyzed changes in the posterior corneal curvature, posterior corneal elevation, and anterior chamber depth. Moreover, we explored...
متن کاملMinor influence of myopic laser in situ keratomileusis on the posterior corneal surface.
PURPOSE To check whether myopic LASIK induces changes on the posterior corneal surface. METHODS A Scheimpflug system (Pentacam; Oculus, GmbH, Wetzlar, Germany) was used to measure preoperative and postoperative posterior corneal topography in 27 eyes (of 14 subjects) that had undergone standard myopic LASIK surgery (attempted corrections between -1.25 and -8.50 D) and on 18 nonoperated eyes (...
متن کاملCorneal ectasia after myopic laser in situ keratomileusis: a long-term study
BACKGROUND The purpose of this study was to evaluate the long-term postoperative incidence of and key factors in the genesis of corneal ectasia after myopic laser-assisted in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) in a large number of cases. METHODS A retrospective review of one surgeon's myopic LASIK database was performed. Patients were stratified into two groups based on date of surgery, ie, group 1 ...
متن کاملComparison of 2 wavefront-guided excimer lasers for myopic laser in situ keratomileusis: one-year results.
PURPOSE To compare laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) outcomes between 2 wavefront-guided excimer laser systems in the treatment of myopia. SETTING University eye clinic, Palo Alto, California, USA. DESIGN Prospective comparative case series. METHODS One eye of patients was treated with the Allegretto Wave Eye-Q system (small-spot scanning laser) and the fellow eye with the Visx Star Cu...
متن کاملFour-year follow-up of corneal aberrations and visual functions of myopic patients after laser in situ keratomileusis.
OBJECTIVE To report on 4-year follow-up of corneal higher-order aberrations and daily visual functions of myopic patients after laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK). METHODS One hundred thirty four eyes of 67 patients who underwent LASIK guided by aspherical ablation were included in this study. The vision, corneal spherical aberration (SphA) and Coma were recorded before LASIK and at 6 month...
