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. Also to decrease wound-healing complications, we must avoid any damage to the epithelium.

Quality of Life After Laser Vision Correction: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis [PDF]
Purpose: To analyze patients’ quality of life (QOL) after laser vision correction (LVC) from a worldwide literature review. Methods: Studies of prospective or cross‐sectional design which evaluated QOL in patients after LVC and compared that to preoperative values or a matched group of emmetropes were included.

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. The safety, efficacy, and predictability of LASIK are well known, but complications with this procedure, although ...

Abstract Osteoarthritis affects a significant portion of U.S. adults, and knee osteoarthritis contributes to 80% of disease burden. Previous data have shown that non‐White patient populations often report worse symptoms and less favorable outcomes following arthroplasty, a definitive treatment for knee osteoarthritis.

Non‐orthogonal spectacle correction for irregular astigmatism
Abstract Purpose To investigate the potential improvement in visual acuity and subjective perception of image quality in patients with keratoconus using non‐orthogonal correction (NOC) cylinder trial lenses where the steep and flat power meridians are set at angles less or greater than 90°. Methods A set of NOC plano/cylindrical trial lenses, where the

The Combined Utilization of Epithelial Thickness and Tomographic Parameters in Keratoconus Detection
Purpose: To evaluate the performance of the anterior segment optical coherence tomography (AS‐OCT) and Scheimpflug–Placido tomographic (SPT) indices in differentiating suspect keratoconus (SKC) from normal (N). Methods: In this cross‐sectional study, one eye of each patient was scanned on AS‐OCT and SPT.

Aims: To investigate the impact of horizontal markings on the VisuMax surgical bed headrest on the accuracy of astigmatism correction in small incision lenticule extraction (SMILE). Methods: This retrospective study categorized preoperative astigmatism severity into low‐astigmatism (−0.25 to −1.75 D) and moderate‐to‐high astigmatism (−2.00 to −4.50 D).
