Evaluation of Refractive Results of LASIK and LASEK in Patients with Myopia and Myopic Astigmatism
Türk Oftalmoloji Dergisi, 2014 Objectives: To compare the mean visual acuity, spherical equivalent (SE), cylindrical refractive error, and central corneal thickness (CCT) results of LASIK and LASEK in patients with myopia and myopic astigmatism.

Comparison of Corneal Biomechanics in Post-SMILE, Post-LASEK, and Keratoconic Eyes
Frontiers in Medicine, 2021 Significance: Our study found that SP-A1 (stiffness parameter at time of first applanation) was statistically different between post-laser-assisted subepithelial keratomileusis (LASEK) and post-small incision lenticule extraction (SMILE) eyes.

Role of tear vasoactive intestinal peptide on dry eyes after laser keratorefractive surgery
BMC Ophthalmology, 2023 Background To explore the changes in vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP) concentration in tears post laser-assisted sub-epithelial keratomileusis (LASEK) and femtosecond laser-assisted in situ keratomileusis (FS-LASIK) surgeries and related factors ...

Long term results of no-alcohol laser epithelial keratomileusis and photorefractive keratectomy for myopia [PDF]
International Journal of Ophthalmology, 2015 RESULTS: Twenty-one eyes and 22 eyes completed follow-up of 60mo in LASEK and PRK group respectively. Manifest refraction at 60mo follow-up was -0.01 and 0.26 in LASEK and PRK group respectively. In the LASEK group mean UDVA and mean CDVA after 60mo were
