چکیده

Purpose: To evaluate the safety and reproducibility of using +3 Ring Moria M2 microkeratome (Mechanical Technology) with patients suffering from high K reading. Setting: Eye Care Private Centre-surgery Centre, Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. Methods: Data had been reviewed starting from 2005 up to 2010; with the aim to review and evaluate all the data and complications after using +3 Ring Moria M2 single use head 90 (110) microkeratome LASIK with very high K-reading patients. Results: (Male and female eyes) total eligible eyes were 51 from 28 patients with gender distribution 58.71% (30 eyes) females and 41.29% (21 eyes) males. Population mean ±SD, sphere –3.65 ±2.27, cylinder 1.66± 1.24, 116.74±77.37, K2 score 47.17±0.516 (range 47-48.25), K1 score 45.69 ± 1.53 (range 43.25-54.5). Optical zone of choice was 6.5 D. Conclusion: Although the presence of new technologies including Femtosecond LASIK technology offering new advantages, the use mechanical microkeratome is still showing high safety profile if +3 Rings were used.

Corneal flap thickness with the Moria M2 single-use head 90 microkeratome in 72 consecutive LASIK procedures

PURPOSE This study aimed to evaluate the accuracy and consistency of corneal flap thickness in laser-assisted in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) with the Moria M2 single-use head 90 microkeratome. METHODS The central corneal thickness of 72 (37 right, 35 left) eyes of 37 patients was measured by ultrasonic pachymetry preoperatively and intraoperatively after flap cut. The Moria M2 single-use head...

Refinement of Intraocular Pressure Measurements made by Ocular Response Analyzer following Laser in Situ Keratomileusis using M2 90 Moria Microkeratome for Egyptian Myopic and Astigmatic Patients

INTRODUCTION The Goldmann applanation tonometer readings were noted to be markedly reduced after Lasik surgery using a thin flap technique which is widely used nowadays, to correct a wide range of myopia and astigmatism. The Ocular Response Analyzer (ORA) is considered one of the important tools for refinement of Intraocular Pressure (IOP) measurements. The aim of this study is to evaluate and ...

Femtosecond laser versus mechanical microkeratome: a retrospective comparison of visual outcomes at 3 months.

PURPOSE To compare the visual outcomes of LASIK procedures in which flaps were created with a femtosecond laser (IntraLase FS 60Hz, Abbott Medical Optics [AMO]) to procedures in which flaps were created with a mechanical microkeratome (Moria Evo3 One Use-Plus, Moria SA). METHODS A retrospective analysis was performed on 2000 eyes treated in 2008 for low myopia and astigmatism (sphere < -3.00 ...

The effect of flap thickness on corneal biomechanics after myopic laser in situ keratomileusis using the M-2 microkeratome

Purpose The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of flap thickness on corneal biomechanics after myopic laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK). Methods This is a prospective controlled non-randomized, institutional study. Patients underwent either epi-LASIK with mitomycin (advanced surface ablation [ASA]), thin-flap LASIK (90 µm head), or thick-flap LASIK (130 µm head). In ASA, the...
