Refractive and Vector Outcomes of SMILE Pro with the VISUMAX 800 for High Astigmatism [PDF]

Vision
Background/Objectives: High astigmatism remains challenging in keratorefractive lenticule extraction because small errors in centration or cyclotorsion may affect astigmatic correction. This study evaluated early refractive and astigmatic vector outcomes

Femtosecond laser-assisted LASIK in the SMILE era: a mini review of patient-centered procedure selection [PDF]

Frontiers in Medicine
Femtosecond laser-assisted in situ keratomileusis (FS-LASIK) remains a mature corneal refractive procedure, but its role is being reshaped by small-incision lenticule extraction (SMILE), transepithelial photorefractive keratectomy, and phakic intraocular

Comparative Validation of a VISULYZE-Based Nomogram for Predicting Visual Outcomes and Higher-Order Aberrations After SMILE in High Myopia. [PDF]

J Ophthalmol
Purpose To validate a novel VISULYZE‐based nomogram for high myopia in small incision lenticule extraction (SMILE) surgery. Methods This prospective, nonrandomized controlled trial included 118 eyes of 71 high‐myopia patients treated with SMILE using a VisuMax 500‐kHz femtosecond laser.

Refractive Corneal surgeries: A Review

Kerala Journal of Ophthalmology, 2022
Refractive corneal surgeries are procedures for correction of refractive errors. Modern keratorefractive procedures include laser in situ keratomileusis, surface ablation, relatively newer refractive lenticule extraction, and corneal inlays. This article
