Incidence and Clinical Characteristics of Post LASIK Ectasia: A Review of over 30,000 LASIK Cases

Seminars in Ophthalmology, 2018
Purpose: To report the incidence of postoperative ectasia after laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK). Methods: A retrospective case review of 30,167 eyes (16,732 patients) was conducted following LASIK between August 2007 and August 2015.

Comparison of early visual outcomes following low-energy SMILE, high-energy SMILE, and LASIK for myopia and myopic astigmatism in the United States.

Journal of cataract and refractive surgery, 2020
PURPOSE To compare uncorrected visual acuities (UDVA) and induced higher-order aberrations (HOAs) in the early postoperative period between low-energy (LE) small incision lenticule extraction (SMILE), high-energy (HE) SMILE and femtosecond laser-assisted

LASIK Enhancements

International Ophthalmology Clinics, 2000
As the field of refractive surgery continues to evolve, an increasing number of surgical options are available for LASIK enhancements. Nonetheless, older methods such as AK continue to play an important role in enhancement procedures. Improvements in instruments and techniques allow for previously made LASIK flaps to be safely lifted for additional ...

Refractive outcomes comparing SMILE and FS-LASIK for High Myopia.

Journal of cataract and refractive surgery, 2020
PURPOSE To compare the long-term refractive effects of small incision lenticule extraction (SMILE) and femtosecond laser-assisted laser in situ keratomileusis (FS-LASIK) for correction of high myopia and astigmatism. SETTING The Eye and ENT Hospital of

Visual outcomes after SMILE from first year experience at a U.S. military refractive surgery center and comparison with PRK and LASIK outcomes.

Journal of cataract and refractive surgery, 2020
PURPOSE To assess the visual outcomes of small-incision lenticule extraction (SMILE) after the first year of treatments at a military refractive surgery center and compare with photorefractive keratectomy (PRK) and laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK ...

Astigmatism and LASIK

Current Opinion in Ophthalmology, 2002
Although laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) enjoys a high success rate, postoperative residual or induced astigmatism may limit uncorrected visual acuity and cause starbursts and glare at night. Irregular astigmatism can also cause loss of best-corrected visual acuity, monocular diplopia, and ghosting of images.

Functional Optical Zone and Centration Following SMILE and LASIK: A Prospective, Randomized, Contralateral Eye Study.

Journal of refractive surgery, 2019
PURPOSE To compare centration and functional optical zone (FOZ) after small incision lenticule extraction (SMILE) and femtosecond laser-assisted in situ keratomileusis (LASIK).

LASIK After Epikeratophakia

Cornea, 2003
To present a case of successful laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) performed on a patient with residual hyperopic astigmatism and symptomatic anisometropia after previous epikeratoplasty (epikeratophakia).LASIK was used successfully to treat hyperopic astigmatism after regression of epikeratophakia performed 16 years earlier.Visual acuity improved to

Epi-LASIK After Amputation of a LASIK Flap

Journal of Refractive Surgery, 2006
ABSTRACT PURPOSE: To demonstrate the feasibility of performing epi-LASIK after amputation of a LASIK flap. METHODS: Three months following complicated primary LASIK and immediate flap amputation, a Lasitome microkeratome (Gebauer, Neuhausen, Germany), equipped with an epi-head and -blade, was used to perform an epi-LASIK surface ...

History of LASIK

2002
Modern lamellar refractive surgery has its roots in the pioneer work of Professor Jose Ignacio Barraquer of Colombia. In 1949, Barraquer suggested that by adding or removing corneal tissue, it was possible to manipulate surgically the curvature of the air/tear film interface, where the two thirds of the refractive power of the eye is located (1).
