PURPOSE To evaluate the degree of static and dynamic cyclotorsion using a rotational eye tracker in laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) to correct myopic astigmatism. SETTING Rothschild Foundation, Paris, France. DESIGN Cohort study. METHODS Laser in situ keratomileusis with active iris registration using a Zyoptix 100 Hz excimer laser with Advanced Control Eyetracking was performed in e...

PURPOSE A preliminary study in order to test the accuracy of the IOL Master in detecting axial eye length changes after laser-assisted in situ keratomileusis and to correlate the findings with the theoretical ablation depth. METHODS Pre-and postoperative axial eye length measurements were performed in 10 consecutive eyes that underwent laser-assisted in situ keratomileusis with the Alcon Lada...

This study aimed to investigate the effects of femtosecond laser-assisted in situ keratomileusis (FS-LASIK) and small incision lenticule extraction (SMILE) on higher-order aberrations in patients. 56 cases (112 eyes) undergoing refractive surgery in our hospital were selected in this study, all patients were randomly divided into femtosecond laser-assisted in situ keratomileusis group (LASIK gr...

PURPOSE To evaluate the current clinical evidence of safety and efficacy of intraoperative topical application of 0.02% mitomycin C (MMC) used for up to 2 minutes after surface ablation for correction of myopia. METHODS A comprehensive literature search was conducted of Cochrane Library, MEDLINE, and EMBASE to identify relevant trials comparing surface ablation for correction of myopia with a...

BACKGROUND/AIM We aimed to compare the results of WaveLight Allegretto Wave Eye-Q 400 Hz and Technolas 217z100 excimer lasers in the treatment of mixed astigmatism. MATERIALS AND METHODS Forty-nine patients who underwent laser in situ keratomileusis for mixed astigmatism were included in this retrospective study. Twenty-eight eyes of 21 patients were treated with WaveLight and 46 eyes of 28 p...

AIM To determine the efficacy and safety of keratorefractive surgery in patients with accommodative and non-accommodative strabismus in a prospective study. METHODS Preoperative assessment included uncorrected (UCVA) and best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA), manifest and cycloplegic refraction and orthoptic examination. Laser in situ keratomileusis, laser epithelial keratomileusis and Artisan ...
