Management of incision failure during small incision lenticule extraction because of conjunctivochalasis

American Journal of Ophthalmology Case Reports, 2017
Purpose: We report a case of incision failure during small incision lenticule extraction (SMILE) and its management. Observations: The incision could not be made using the femtosecond laser because of a redundant conjunctiva, so it was instead done ...

Factors Influencing Astigmatic Correction Using Small-Incision Lenticule Extraction: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis. [PDF]

J Ophthalmol
Purpose To systematically review SMILE‐based astigmatism correction and influencing factors. Methods Literature was screened across eight databases. Pre‐ and post‐SMILE cylinder, difference vector (DV), correction index (CI), magnitude of error (ME), angle of error (AE), and index of success (IOS) were compared.

The Impact of Horizontal Marking on the VisuMax Surgical Bed Headrest on the Outcomes of Myopic Astigmatism Correction With Small Incision Lenticule Extraction. [PDF]

J Ophthalmol
Aims: To investigate the impact of horizontal markings on the VisuMax surgical bed headrest on the accuracy of astigmatism correction in small incision lenticule extraction (SMILE). Methods: This retrospective study categorized preoperative astigmatism severity into low‐astigmatism (−0.25 to −1.75 D) and moderate‐to‐high astigmatism (−2.00 to −4.50 D).
