Complications of laser-assisted in situ keratomileusis
Laser-assisted in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) is one of the most commonly performed kerato-refractive surgery globally. Since its introduction in 1990, there has been a constant evolution in its technology to improve the visual outcome.

Bowman Keratomileusis: Better than Laser Assisted In Situ Keratomileusis (LASIK)?
The most important factor in undertaking a refractive procedure is that we need to be within the stroma to make it comfortable to the patient. But, from a biomechanical standpoint, we need to be as superficial as we can.

The assessment of the stability of the corneal structure after LASIK correction of myopia by different optical zone diameters [PDF]
Background/Aim. Enlargement of optical zone (OZ) diameter during laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) correction of myopia postoperatively improves the optical outcome, however, it also leads to the increased stroma tissue consumption ...

COMPARISON BETWEEN PHOTOREFRACTIVE KERATECTOMY (PRK) AND LASER IN SITU KERATOMILEUSIS (LASIK) OUTCOME AFTER SIX MONTHS IN TREATMENT OF MYOPIC ASTIGMATISM [PDF]
Astigmatism is corrected by either by toric lenses or surgical intervention including laser refractive surgery. Photorefractive keratectomy (PRK) is performed with the excimer laser which can accurately ablate corneal tissue to an exact depth with ...

Complications of laser-in-situ-keratomileusis
Laser-in-situ-keratomileusis (LASIK) has become a popular technique of refractive surgery because of lower postoperative discomfort, early visual rehabilitation and decreased postoperative haze.

Kappa angles in different positions in patients with myopia during LASIK [PDF]
AIM: To investigate the difference in kappa angle between sitting and supine positions during laser-assisted in situ keratomileusis (LASIK). METHODS: A retrospective study was performed on 395 eyes from 215 patients with myopia that received LASIK. Low,
