Thirteen‐Year Outcomes of Keratorefractive Lenticule Extraction for Myopia Up to −10 Dioptres

Journal of Ophthalmology, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
Purpose: To explore the long‐term (13‐year) outcomes associated with keratorefractive lenticule extraction (KLEx) among patients with myopia up to −10 dioptres. Methods: This prospective, nonconsecutive case series included 29 patients (29 eyes) who underwent KLEx procedures from May, 2010, through March, 2013, at the Fudan University Eye and ENT ...

Dry Eyes After SMILE [PDF]

, 2019
Dry eyes is one of most common complications following laser vision correction. Small incision lenticule extraction (SMILE) is a flapless procedure with a smaller corneal incision, less corneal nerves are transected during, making it theoretically less ...

Biologicals and Biomaterials for Corneal Regeneration and Vision Restoration in Limbal Stem Cell Deficiency

Advanced Materials, Volume 36, Issue 42, October 17, 2024.
Scaffolds with stem cells to rehabilitate the ocular surface in patients with limbal stem cell deficiency. Native and synthetic scaffolds, as carriers of stem cells, are being developed and transplanted to treat individuals with limbal stem cell deficiency (LSCD). Successful outcomes include restoration of tissue architecture and improvements in ocular

Complications of small incision lenticule extraction

Indian Journal of Ophthalmology, 2020
The procedure of small incision lenticule extraction (SMILE) was introduced in 2011, and since then there has been an increase in the number of cases undergoing this procedure worldwide. The surgery has a learning curve and may be associated with problems in the intraoperative and postoperative periods.

Histochemical and ultrastructural evaluation of myopic corneal lenticules based on refractive error

Clinical &Experimental Ophthalmology, Volume 52, Issue 7, Page 704-712, September/October 2024.
Abstract Background This study aimed to investigate cell degeneration, apoptosis, and ultrastructural differences in refractive lenticules (RL) obtained using small incision lenticule extraction (SMILE) compared with spherical equivalence (SE) refraction values. Methods This study included 84 eyes from 42 patients. Patients were divided into two groups
