[Corneal reinnervation after keratomileusis in situ and keratomileusis myopica--a comparison].

Klinische Monatsblatter fur Augenheilkunde, 1995
In a retrospective study corneal sensitivity after keratomileusis in situ and keratomileusis myopica was measured.5 points on the cornea were measured with the Draeger aesthesiometer at 18 eyes after keratomileusis myopica and at 66 eyes after keratomileusis in situ.The ingrowth of corneal nerve fibres is delayed after keratomileusis myopica compared ...

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.).

Laser in situ Keratomileusis for Hyperopia

Journal of Refractive Surgery, 1997
ABSTRACT PURPOSE: To study the efficacy of laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) for hyperopia. METHODS: We performed LASIK on 21 eyes using the Nidek EC-5000 excimer laser with software version 2.18 AH. The Chiron Automated Corneal Shaper was used to create the flap.

Keratomileusis for Myopia and Aphakia

Ophthalmology, 1981
Abstract The main points of the surgical technique are described briefly. The results of keratomileusis for the correction of myopia and aphakia are analyzed, comparing them, along with the accidents and complications of the first series, with those of the last series. The present indications and limitations of the procedure are pointed out.

Butterfly Laser Epithelial Keratomileusis for Myopia

Journal of Refractive Surgery, 2002
ABSTRACT PURPOSE: Decreased epithelial viability is a postoperative complication of standard laser epithelial keratomileusis (LASEK) that hampers rapid recovery, and causes reduced visual acuity as well as discomfort. We present a new LASEK technique that, by increasing epithelial viability, reduces the occurrence of these complications.

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 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).

Fitting contact lenses after myopic keratomileusis

Journal of Cataract and Refractive Surgery, 1999
To evaluate the long-term efficacy and results of contact lens fitting following myopic keratomileusis (MKM).Department of Ophthalmology, Manhattan Eye, Ear, and Throat Hospital, and Swinger Vision Center, New York, New York, USA.Postoperative fitting of contact lenses was studied as part of a prospective evaluation of myopic keratomileusis.
