Keratomileusis in situ for high myopia
Journal of Cataract and Refractive Surgery, 1996To examine the safety and efficacy of myopic keratomileusis in situ (automated lamellar keratoplasty) using an automated microkeratome.Jules Stein Eye Institute and the Department of Ophthalmology, UCLA School of Medicine, Los Angeles, California.A retrospective study was done on 135 consecutive eyes of 91 patients who had keratomileusis in situ for ...

Keratomileusis for Myopia and Aphakia
Ophthalmology, 1981Abstract 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.

Results of Myopic Keratomileusis
Journal of Refractive Surgery, 1987ABSTRACT: 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 technique
Current Opinion in Ophthalmology, 2000The 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.

Myopic keratomileusis: Initial results and myopic keratomileusis combined with other procedures
Journal of Cataract and Refractive Surgery, 1987Myopic 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

Prospective Evaluation of Myopic Keratomileusis
Ophthalmology, 1984The 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.

Laser in situ keratomileusis monovision
Journal of Cataract and Refractive Surgery, 2001To 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, 2002Laser 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
Ophthalmology, 1984We present ultrastructural findings in two cases, one of keratophakia (9 months postoperatively) and one of keratomileusis (1 year, 7 months post-operatively), which best demonstrate the pathologic changes we observed in six cases of cryorefractive surgery. In addition, we studied a rabbit model of keratophakia which appears to exhibit similar features

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.
