One-Year Outcomes of Topography-Guided LASIK for Myopia and Astigmatism. [PDF]
Introduction To assess the efficacy and safety of topography‐guided LASIK (TG‐LASIK) in correcting myopia and astigmatism and to evaluate clinical outcomes and visual quality postoperatively. Methods We conducted a prospective study including patients aged 18–40 years with stable refraction for over 12 months.

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.
