Quality of Life in Myopia: Laser‐Assisted In Situ Keratomileusis Versus Contact Lenses

Eye & ENT Research
Background Laser‐assisted in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) and contact lenses are commonly used to correct refractive errors, but their effects on quality of life, patient satisfaction, and dry eye disease remain variable.

Comparison of Sub-Bowman Keratoplasty Laser In situ Keratomileusis Flap Properties between Microkeratome and Femtosecond Laser

Advanced Biomedical Research, 2017
Background: Since thin and high-quality flaps produce more satisfactory surgical outcomes, flaps created by mechanical microkeratomes are more economical as compared with femtosecond lasers, and no Iranian study has concentrated laser in situ ...

Bowman Keratomileusis: Better than Laser Assisted In Situ Keratomileusis (LASIK)?

Delhi Journal of Ophthalmology, 2012
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.
