Comparison of long-term changes in the effective optical zone following SMILE and FS-LASIK for moderate and high myopia [PDF]
Background Visual quality after corneal refractive surgery is linked to the postoperative effective optical zone (EOZ). This study aims to compare long-term changes in the EOZ following small incision lenticule extraction (SMILE) and femtosecond laser ...

Ocular Surface Microbiota Alterations Following FS-LASIK and Their Association With Postoperative Dry Eye. [PDF]
Purpose Given the limited evidence on ocular surface microbiota (OSM) changes after femtosecond laser‐assisted in situ keratomileusis (FS‐LASIK) and their link to dry eye (DE), this study aimed to compare microbial profiles in patients with and without postoperative DE, offering a basis for early detection and targeted treatment.

Beyond 20/20: How Laser Eye Surgery Boosts Quality of Life (SMILE vs. FS-LASIK). [PDF]
Purpose Uncorrected refractive errors are the main cause of visual impairment globally and can be corrected with refractive surgeries, such as femtosecond laser–assisted in situ keratomileusis (FS‐LASIK) and small‐incision lenticule extraction (SMILE).

Lipidomics Analysis of the Tears in the Patients Receiving LASIK, FS-LASIK, or SBK Surgery
Purpose: Tear film lipid layer (TFLL) plays a vital role in maintaining the tear film stability and, thus, the lipid composition of the tears could greatly affect the physiological function and biophysical integrity of the tear film.

Central and peripheral optical quality after FS-LASIK, SMILE, and phakic ICL implantation for moderate to high myopia [PDF]
Background FS-LASIK, small-incision lenticule extraction (SMILE), and phakic intraocular lens (ICL) implantation are widely used for correcting moderate to high myopia, yet their effects on peripheral optical quality remain incompletely understood.
