Aesthesiometry after Cryo-keratomileusis and in situ Keratomileusis

European journal of Implant and Refractive Surgery, 1995
Objective: Evaluation of corneal reinnervation after cryo-keratomileusis and keratomileusis. Study Design: Retrospective evaluation of corneal sensitivity after cryo-keratomileusis and in situ keratomileusis. The measurements were performed with the Draeger electromechanical optical-controlled aesthesiometer, which is very precise and independent of

Laser in situ keratomileusis

Lasers in Surgery and Medicine, 1990
AbstractA new laser refractive procedure is being developed in a rabbit model. With a modified microkeratome, central corneal flaps were created. An ArF excimer laser was used to produce 3‐mm‐diameter circular ablations on the central part of the exposed stromal bed.

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 ...

Keratophakia and Keratomileusis — Clinical Results

Ophthalmology, 1981
A random, retrospective study was performed on 158 patients. who underwent keratophakia and keratomileusis for the correction of refractive errors. The primary indication for surgery was high anisometropia. Data on corneal curvature modification, refraction, accuracy, stability, and complications are reported.

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 -

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.

Myopic Keratomileusis: Short-Term Results

Journal of Refractive Surgery, 1989
ABSTRACT: The first 97 eyes operated with keratomileusis by two surgeons starting to use this technique ore evaluated. The 30- and 90-day postoperative results of this initial experience are reported. Average preoperative myopia was -10.53 D spherical equivalent (range -5.25 to -22.25 D); average refractive correction at 90 days was -10.20 D ...

Myopic keratomileusis: Initial results and myopic keratomileusis combined with other procedures

Journal of Cataract and Refractive Surgery, 1987
Myopic keratomileusis (MKM) was performed on 58 eyes to correct for moderate to severe myopia. This represents the first consecutive 58 cases I performed. Average follow-up was 11.6 months, with the shortest time being three months. Average preoperative myopia was -11.16 diopters (D) with a range of -5.50 D to -21.62 D. Average postoperative myopia was

Laser in situ keratomileusis technique

Current Opinion in Ophthalmology, 2000
The collective surgical experience of laser in situ keratomileusis continues to grow. It is apparent that surgical technique can greatly improve visual outcomes, prevent complications, and aid in the management of intraoperative surgical complications.

Prospective Evaluation of Myopic Keratomileusis

Ophthalmology, 1984
The initial results of a prospective evaluation of myopic keratomileusis are reported. The procedure was attempted on 42 eyes, with an average follow-up of 10 months. The average reductions of myopia were 7.05 D and 11.59 D when measured by keratometry and refraction, respectively.
