Ectasia After SMILE: Correct Interpretation of Biomechanical Hypothesis.
Ectasia After SMILE: Correct Interpretation of Biomechanical Hypothesis We read the case report by Mattila and Holopainen on bilateral ectasia after SMILE in the July 2016 issue with great interest.1 It is evident that preoperative examination with topography, tomography, and slit-lamp examination needs to be strictly followed by surgeons before small incision lenticule extraction (SMILE), LASI...
متن کاملA Review of Corneal Biomechanics after LASIK and SMILE and the Current Methods of Corneal Biomechanical Analysis
Corneal refractive surgeries for the correction of myopia, hyperopia, astigmatism and hyperopia are quick and effective procedures, and have been growing in popularity over the last two decades. However, post-surgery corneal ectasia remains one of the most feared surgical complications. This is where the biomechanical integrity of the cornea begins to fail, with progressive thinning of the stro...
متن کاملCorneal ectasia induced by laser in situ keratomileusis.
PURPOSE To identify factors that can lead to corneal ectasia after laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK). SETTING University refractive surgery center. METHODS In this retrospective study, the charts of all patients (2873 eyes) who had LASIK between May 1995 and November 1999 were reviewed. Fourteen patients (19 eyes, 0.66%) developed post-LASIK ectasia. The mean follow-up was 16.32 months (...
متن کاملFive-year results of Small Incision Lenticule Extraction (ReLEx SMILE).
BACKGROUND To evaluate the 5-year results of Refractive Lenticule Extraction (ReLEx) as Small Incision Lenticule Extraction (SMILE) technique for treatment of myopia and myopic astigmatism. METHODS In 2008/2009, the worldwide first 91 eyes were treated using a novel surgical technique (SMILE), where a refractive lenticule of intrastromal corneal tissue is removed though a small incision compl...
متن کاملComputational Biomechanical Analysis of Asymmetric Ectasia Risk in Unilateral Post-LASIK Ectasia.
PURPOSE To develop a computational approach to corneal biomechanical risk analysis in refractive surgery and to investigate its utility in an enigmatic case of unilateral ectasia after bilateral LASIK. METHODS Preoperative corneal elevation datasets from both eyes of a patient who developed unilateral post-LASIK ectasia were used to construct geometrically patient-specific, microstructurally ...
