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 -

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).

Laser in situ keratomileusis for hyperopia.

Journal of refractive surgery (Thorofare, N.J. : 1995), 1999
To 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], 2008
The 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

Seminars in Ophthalmology, 1996
Excimer 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.

Excimer Laser In Situ Keratomileusis for Myopia

Journal of Refractive Surgery, 1995
ABSTRACT 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.
