Laser in situ keratomileusis monovision

Journal of Cataract and Refractive Surgery, 2001
To evaluate the outcome of monovision after laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK).Private practice, Little Silver, New Jersey, USA.In this retrospective study, 432 consecutive patients (864 eyes) who had LASIK between January 1998 and October 1999 with a follow-up of 6 to 28 months were examined. All patients older than 40 years were asked to complete a

LASEK (laser subepithelial keratomileusis)

Current Opinion in Ophthalmology, 2002
Laser subepithelial keratomileusis (LASEK) is a relatively new refractive surgical technique that purportedly combines the advantages of laser in-situ keratomileusis (LASIK) and photorefractive keratectomy (PRK). Like LASIK, on the one hand, it employs a "flap" and consequently has the advantages of faster visual recovery, less postoperative pain ...

Results of Myopic Keratomileusis

Journal of Refractive Surgery, 1987
ABSTRACT: The results of 77 consecutive cases of myopic keratomileusis are presented and analyzed. The study shows the variations in parameters that may influence the final correction, both preoperative^ (age, corneal thickness, etc.) and postoperatively (diameter and thickness of the disc resected, optical zone, etc.).

Optical Zone Size in Keratomileusis for Myopia: Computer-Assisted Evaluation and Correction of Myopic Keratomileusis

Journal of Refractive Surgery, 1991
ABSTRACT: In this article, we demonstrated the unexpected reduction of optical zone diameter in myopic keratomileusis and its causes. Mathematical evaluation of optical zone diameter was made possible through a module added to a computer program. Optical zone diameter was reduced more in smaller corrections than in higher corrections.

Laser Epithelial Keratomileusis for Myopia

Journal of Refractive Surgery, 2003
ABSTRACT PURPOSE: To describe a new technique for excimer laser corneal surgery: laser epithelial keratomileusis (LASEK). METHODS: We report 76 eyes with spherical equivalent refractive myopia ranging from -8.00 to -22.00 D (mean -11.00 ± 3.00 D).

Refractive keratoplasty: keratophakia and keratomileusis.

Transactions of the American Ophthalmological Society, 1979
We have presented our early experience with the refractive keratoplasty techniques of Doctor Jose Barraquer--keratophakia and hypermetropic keratomileusis. In contradistinction to the alloplastic lens substitutes currently being employed for the integral correction of aphakia, his techniques would seem to offer a more permanent, more physiologic, full ...

Laser in situ Keratomileusis for Myopia

Journal of Refractive Surgery, 1998
ABSTRACT PURPOSE: To evaluate the efficacy of laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) for myopia. METHODS: We performed LASIK on 55 eyes using the Nidek EC-5000 excimer laser. We altered the PRK algorithms to make them appropriate for LASIK. The Chiron automated corneal shaper was used to create the flap. RESULTS: A high rate

Laser in situ Keratomileusis vs. Laser Epithelial Keratomileusis (LASIK vs. LASEK)

Journal of Refractive Surgery, 2001
ABSTRACT PURPOSE: To compare results of laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) and laser epithelial keratomileusis (LASEK) for the treatment of myopia. METHODS: Two groups of fifteen patients (30 eyes) each were assigned to either the LASLK group or the LASEK group.

[Subepithelial keratomileusis and laser in situ keratomileusis for the correction of high myopia].

Yan ke xue bao = Eye science, 2012
To compare the effectiveness and safety between laser subepithelial keratomileusis (LASEK) and conventional laser in-situ keratomileusis (LASIK) for high myopia.In this prospective study, LASEK was performed in 75 eyes of 39 patients and LASIK was performed in 79 eyes of 41 patients for high myopia with a prospective clinical follow-up period.In LASEK ...
