Laser in situ keratomileusis in 2012: a review [PDF]

Australasian journal of optometry, The, 2014
Laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) is a safe and effective treatment for refractive error. A combination of technological advances and increasing surgeon experience has served to further refine refractive outcomes and reduce complication rates.

Laser in situ keratomileusis

Lasers in Surgery and Medicine, 1990
AbstractA new laser refractive procedure is being developed in a rabbit model. With a modified microkeratome, central corneal flaps were created. An ArF excimer laser was used to produce 3‐mm‐diameter circular ablations on the central part of the exposed stromal bed.

Laser in situ Keratomileusis for Hyperopia

Journal of Refractive Surgery, 1997
ABSTRACT PURPOSE: To study the efficacy of laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) for hyperopia. METHODS: We performed LASIK on 21 eyes using the Nidek EC-5000 excimer laser with software version 2.18 AH. The Chiron Automated Corneal Shaper was used to create the flap.

Excimer Laser In Situ Keratomileusis

Journal of Refractive Surgery, 1995
ABSTRACT We have been using a 193-nm excimer laser under protocol to ablate the corneal stromal bed after creating a hinged corneal flap with a microkeratome in order to reduce or eliminate refractive error. Thirty-one consecutive eyes are reviewed with a preoperative mean spherical equivalent refraction of -6.25 diopters (D) (range -3.50 to -

Laser in situ keratomileusis technique

Current Opinion in Ophthalmology, 2000
The collective surgical experience of laser in situ keratomileusis continues to grow. It is apparent that surgical technique can greatly improve visual outcomes, prevent complications, and aid in the management of intraoperative surgical complications.

The Picosecond Laser for Nonmechanical Laser in situ Keratomileusis

Journal of Refractive Surgery, 1998
ABSTRACT PURPOSE: To introduce the clinical use of the Nd:YLF picosecond laser as a nonmechanical microkeratome. METHODS: A commercially available Nd:YLF picosecond laser (25 µJ/pulse, 30 psec, 1053 nm) was used to deliver intrastromal pulses of focused high power laser light to generate a flap for laser in situ keratomileusis ...

Results of pediatric laser in situ keratomileusis

Journal of Cataract and Refractive Surgery, 2000
To evaluate the results of laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) for uniocular high myopia in pediatric eyes.Dr. Agarwal's Eye Hospital, Chennai (Madras), India.Sixteen eyes that were treated by LASIK for uniocular high myopia were retrospectively analyzed. The mean patient age was 8.4 years +/- 1.83 (SD) (range 5 to 11 years).
