purpose : to investigate the application of mitomycin-c 0.02% (mmc) in the photorefractive keratectomy (prk) procedure in correcting regressed myopia methods : eighteen eyes of 11 patients with a spherical equivalent (se) of less than -5 diopters (d) who had undergone laser in situ keratomileusis (lasik) more than 2 years before were operated on. at the end of the prk procedure, mmc was applied...

purpose : to compare changes in posterior corneal elevation, anterior chamber depth (acd), anterior chamber volume (acv) and corneal volume (cv) after laser in situ keratomileusis (lasik ) and photorefractive keratectomy (prk) for low to moderate myopia by pentacam imaging methods : in this prospective comparative case series, 105 consecutive myopic eyes randomly scheduled for lasik (n=59) or p...

purpose: to evaluate the visual outcomes of cross-cylinder ablation in laser in situ keratomileusis (lasik) for eyes with high astigmatic refractive errors and low spherical component. methods: we prospectively evaluated cross cylinder lasik in patients with high astigmatic refractive error but low spherical component over a period of 2 years. all procedures were performed with the nidek ec-500...

To evaluate the ability of assessing the refractive change induced by myopic laser surgery using the intrinsic data, obtained from a reference intrinsic to the cornea. Twenty-nine eyes with laser in situ keratomileusis for myopia were included in the study. Statistical analyses were performed to determine the relationship between refractive changes and two kinds of corneal power: KIP_value (obt...

equivalent (MRSE) results were also similar, with 93% of wavefront-guided patients within 0.5 D of target, and 94% of wavefront optimized patients reaching this level. No eyes in this study lost 2 lines of BSCVA; in fact, most eyes gained BSCVA after surgery. In the wavefront-optimized group, 58% of eyes gained one line or more of vision compared with 62% of eyes in the wavefront-guided cohort....

Three cases of decentered laser in situ keratomileusis were successfully treated with the topographically supported customized ablation.
