A Detailed Review of Lenticule-based Refractive Procedures – Kerato-refractive Lenticule Extraction Procedures

Delhi Journal of Ophthalmology
Kerato-refractive lenticule extraction (KLEx) is a modern laser eye surgery technique that utilizes a femtosecond laser to create and extract a lenticule from the cornea, correcting refractive errors.

Reversible femtosecond laser-assisted myopia correction: a non-human primate study of lenticule re-implantation after refractive lenticule extraction. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2013
LASIK (laser-assisted in situ keratomileusis) is a common laser refractive procedure for myopia and astigmatism, involving permanent removal of anterior corneal stromal tissue by excimer ablation beneath a hinged flap.

Biomechanical Characterization of Human Corneal Lenticules

Current Directions in Biomedical Engineering, 2022
In surgical refractive interventions over-correction or under-correction still occur in 10-15 % of cases. Improved outcomes could be achieved by incorporating patient-specific corneal biomechanics into surgical planning.
