purpose : to investigate the application of mitomycin-c 0.02% (mmc) in the photorefractive keratectomy (prk) procedure in correcting regressed myopia methods : eighteen eyes of 11 patients with a spherical equivalent (se) of less than -5 diopters (d) who had undergone laser in situ keratomileusis (lasik) more than 2 years before were operated on. at the end of the prk procedure, mmc was applied...

introduction: to compare the efficacy and cost-effectiveness of femtosecond laser versus mechanical microkeratome corneal flap creation in correction of refractive errors. methods: i this review, a comprehensive search of medline, scopus, cochrane, trip database, supplemented by hta and economic databases was performed. we searched for randomized controlled trials (rcts) of femtosecond laser wh...

BACKGROUND The authors used a retrospective case series to describe the increased frequency of dry eye syndrome in patients who have undergone both laser in situ keratomileusis and blepharoplasty. METHODS The authors reviewed records from six patients who required surgical correction for exposure keratopathy previously treated by both laser in situ keratomileusis and blepharoplasty. RESULTS...

PURPOSE To compare changes in the corneal wavefront aberrations after photorefractive keratectomy and laser in situ keratomileusis. METHODS In a prospective randomized study, 22 patients with bilateral myopia received photorefractive keratectomy on one eye and laser in situ keratomileusis on the other eye. The procedure assigned to each eye and the sequence of surgery for each patient were ra...

purpose : to compare changes in posterior corneal elevation, anterior chamber depth (acd), anterior chamber volume (acv) and corneal volume (cv) after laser in situ keratomileusis (lasik ) and photorefractive keratectomy (prk) for low to moderate myopia by pentacam imaging methods : in this prospective comparative case series, 105 consecutive myopic eyes randomly scheduled for lasik (n=59) or p...

Complicaciones a nivel de una porción de la membrana de Bowman durante la rutina del procedimiento LASIK: dos casos que demuestran la ventaja clínica del uso de Mitomicina C en tales casos

INTRODUCTION Laser vision correction for hyperopia is challenging. The purpose of the study was to assess the refractive outcomes of femtosecond-assisted laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) for hyperopic correction using wavefront-optimized ablation profiles. METHODS This retrospective case series study included 20 Egyptian patients (40 eyes) with hyperopia or hyperopic astigmatism with a me...
