Excimer Laser in Situ Keratomileusis
Seminars in Ophthalmology, 1996Excimer laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) is the most recent evolution of the family of lamellar refractive surgery, which includes keratophakia, freeze myopic keratomileusis, epikeratoplasty, keratomileusis in situ, and Buratto-style excimer laser keratomileusis.

Laser in situ keratomileusis for hyperopia.
Journal of refractive surgery (Thorofare, N.J. : 1995), 1999To evaluate laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) ablation zone size and its relationship to refractive and visual outcomes in the treatment of hyperopia.We evaluated retrospectively 40 eyes of 20 patients who had LASIK: 20 eyes had a refractive ablation zone ranging from 5.5 to 9.0 mm (Group 1); Group 2 consisted of 20 eyes with a refractive ablation ...

Effect of laser in situ keratomileusis on accommodation
Journal of Huazhong University of Science and Technology [Medical Sciences], 2008The accommodative function before and after laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) was observed, and the effect of LASIk on accommodation was investigated. In a prospective clinical trial, 48 myopic patients (96 eyes) subject to bilateral LASIK in Refractive Surgery Center, Tongji Hospital, Tongji Medical College, Huazhong University of Science and ...

Excimer Laser In Situ Keratomileusis for Myopia
Journal of Refractive Surgery, 1995ABSTRACT Excimer laser in situ keratomileusis was done in 97 eyes of 59 patients to correct moderate and high myopia. Mean follow-up was 150 days. Mean preoperative myopia was -10.75 diopters (D). Mean reduction in myopia was -11.281D (106.98%) at 1 month and -10.37 D (98.417%) at 3 months.

Laser in situ Keratomileusis for Myopia
Journal of Refractive Surgery, 1998ABSTRACT PURPOSE: To evaluate the efficacy of laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) for myopia. METHODS: We performed LASIK on 55 eyes using the Nidek EC-5000 excimer laser. We altered the PRK algorithms to make them appropriate for LASIK. The Chiron automated corneal shaper was used to create the flap. RESULTS: A high rate

Postoperative complications in laser in situ keratomileusis
Current Opinion in Ophthalmology, 2000Laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) has become the most common procedure to correct refractive errors in North America. Increasing numbers of patients and surgeons are choosing LASIK in the management of low and moderate myopia, astigmatism, and hyperopia. LASIK presents a unique group of postoperative challenges and complications.
