Transepithelial Photorefractive Keratectomy for Low to Moderate Myopia in Comparison with Conventional Photorefractive Keratectomy
PURPOSE To compare the effectiveness, safety and stability of the results of transepithelial photorefractive keratectomy (tPRK) with conventional photorefractive keratectomy (PRK) for low to moderate myopia. METHODS In this prospective non-randomized case-control study, patients with low to moderate myopia were assigned to the tPRK group (cases) or the PRK group (controls). In the tPRK group,...

PURPOSE To analyse visual, refractive and topographic outcomes of combining transepithelial photorefractive keratectomy (tPRK) with simultaneous corneal crosslinking for the visual rehabilitation of contact lens intolerant keratoconus patients. METHODS Patients with topographically significant keratoconus, limited corrected vision and intolerant of contact lenses were prospectively recruited,...
متن کاملComparison of two procedures: photorefractive keratectomy versus laser in situ keratomileusis for low to moderate myopia.
PURPOSE A prospective study was conducted to compare the effectiveness, safety, and stability of photorefractive keratectomy (PRK) and laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) for correction of low to moderate myopia. METHODS Forty-five patients with a manifest refraction (PRK, -4.54 +/- 0.80; LASIK, -4.82 +/- 1.10) from -1.50 to -6.00 diopters (D) were treated and followed-up for 6 months. In ea...
متن کاملPhotorefractive keratectomy for myopia and photoastigmatic keratectomy for astigmatism.
BACKGROUND We conducted a clinical trial to evaluate the efficacy and safety of excimer laser photorefractive keratectomy (PRK) and photoastigmatic refractive keratectomy (PARK) using the Nidek EC-5000 excimer laser. METHODS A total of 67 eyes from 47 patients whose average age was 35 years were enrolled in the study. The mean spherical equivalent of the manifest refraction before surgery was...
