Femtosecond laser-assisted in situ keratomileusis versus small-incision lenticule extraction: current approach based on evidence

Current Opinion in Ophthalmology
Purpose of review Laser keratorefractive surgery achieves excellent visual outcomes for refractive error correction. With femtosecond laser, small incision lenticule extraction (SMILE) is an increasingly viable alternative to laser-assisted in situ ...

Iatrogenic Keratectasia Following Laser in situ Keratomileusis

Journal of Refractive Surgery, 2002
ABSTRACT PURPOSE: To evaluate keratectasia after laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) for high myopia. METHODS: A 49-year-old male patient with myopia of -23.50 D in both eyes underwent LASIK with a Summit Technology Apex Plus excimer laser. A Moria manually-guided MDSC microkeratome was used. Preoperative corneal topography in both

Choroidal Neovascularization Following Laser In situ Keratomileusis

Ophthalmic Surgery, Lasers and Imaging Retina, 2004
Abstract. Two cases of choroidal neovascularization occurring after laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) are presented from two separate centers. In the first case, an extrafoveal choroidal neovascular membrane, apparently associated with age-related macular degeneration, occurred 3 months after a LASIK procedure was performed on a 64-year-old man with

Postoperative complications in laser in situ keratomileusis

Current Opinion in Ophthalmology, 2000
Laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) has become the most common procedure to correct refractive errors in North America. Increasing numbers of patients and surgeons are choosing LASIK in the management of low and moderate myopia, astigmatism, and hyperopia. LASIK presents a unique group of postoperative challenges and complications.

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
