Refractive surgery has evolved beyond laser refractive techniques over the past decade. Laser refractive surgery procedures (such as laser in-situ keratomileusis), surface ablation techniques (such as laser epithelial keratomileusis), and photorefractive keratectomy have now been established as fairly safe procedures that produce excellent visual ...

A multicenter study of interocular symmetry of corneal biometrics in Chinese myopic patients
It is essential to know the normal range of the interocular symmetry of the cornea (ISC) for keratoconus diagnosis and corneal substitutes design. In the present study we investigated the interocular symmetry of corneal biometrics in 6,644 Chinese myopic

REFRACTIVE SURGERY IN CHILDREN [PDF]
Refractive surgery techniques, especially those using laser ablation, have revolutionized the treatment of refractive errors. The short-term results have been well studied in adults, but long-term outcomes are not known. No good studies exist to tell us whether the pediatric eye responds the same as the adult eye to these techniques, but there is ...

This article presents an overview of the terms used in laser refractive surgery and identifies the benefits, outcomes, complications and shortcomings of these procedures. Even though it is 'fashionable' to have these procedures done, they are still largely experimental. Although there are benefits from these procedures, thorough screening and selection
