Modern laser in situ keratomileusis outcomes

Journal of Cataract and Refractive Surgery, 2016
Laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) articles published between 2008 and 2015 that contain clinical outcomes data were reviewed and graded for quality, impression, and potential bias. All 97 relevant articles (representing 67 893 eyes) provided a positive or neutral impression of LASIK. Industry bias was not evident.

Choroidal Neovascularization Following Laser In situ Keratomileusis

Ophthalmic Surgery, Lasers and Imaging Retina, 2004
Abstract. Two cases of choroidal neovascularization occurring after laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) are presented from two separate centers. In the first case, an extrafoveal choroidal neovascular membrane, apparently associated with age-related macular degeneration, occurred 3 months after a LASIK procedure was performed on a 64-year-old man with

Laser-in-situ-Keratomileusis mit Mikrokeratom oder Femtosekundenlaser

Der Ophthalmologe, 2017
In LASIK, after cutting a lamellating stromal corneal incision (flap) with a microkeratome or a femtosecond laser, the underlying tissue is treated with an excimer laser for refractive correction. The objective is to achieve independency from spectacles and contact lenses due to correction of ametropia.Surgery is indicated when the patient wishes to ...
