Dr. Angela Nahl of La Jolla LASIK Institute recently became the first San Diego LASIK surgeon to perform refractive surgery on a patient using the new Ziemer Z-LASIK technology. The patient, who happens to be a physician, reported only minor discomfort and tested with 20/20 vision following the ten minute procedure. During LASIK, the surgeon cuts a flap in the patient's cornea, performs laser treatment and replaces the flap. Over the last eight years, the quality of results and speed of healing have been

CONCLUSION: LASIK is a safe and effective alternative method for correcting myopic anisometropia facilitating treatment of amblyopia, only considerd in children with spectacles or contact lens intolerance, with more improved visual acuity and binocular vision.

Conclusion This is a well-conducted Cochrane review, which carried out a thorough search for all suitable trials comparing laser eye surgery with phakic intraocular lenses for moderate to severe short-sightedness. Both techniques achieved the same success rate for the proportion of people who had 20/20 vision 12 months after surgery. People given phakic lenses were less likely to have a loss in their ‘best spectacle corrected visual acuity’ after treatment. However, on two occasions, cataracts develop

Conclusions The number of monocytes/macrophages in the TM increases substantially after SLT and monocytes augment both outflow facility and SCE conductivity. Clinical Relevance These findings indicate that the innate immune system in general and monocytes in particular play an important role in aqueous outflow homeostasis. The recruitment of monocytes in increased numbers after SLT likely plays a role in lowering the intraocular pressure after this procedure. The intracameral introduction of a

We report a case of Mycobacterium abscessus keratitis after elective laser in situ keratomileusis in a 19-year-old woman. The infection started 3 weeks after uneventful surgery, and the patient received multiple antimicrobial treatments without response. A corneal scrape isolate showed an acid-fast bacterium that was subsequently confirmed by culture to be M abscessus. Prompt treatment of oral moxifloxacin 400 mg twice daily and hourly topical amikacin 2.5% was started. Recovery occurred within the first

A 48-year-old man with a history of myopic laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) had selective laser trabeculoplasty (SLT) for the treatment of glaucoma in the right eye. He subsequently developed grade 2 diffuse lamellar keratitis (DLK). He then elected to have SLT in the left eye and developed grade 1 DLK. To our knowledge, this is the first report of bilateral consecutive late postoperative DLK following SLT after LASIK.Financial disclosure: Neither author has a financial or proprietary interest in any

Conclusions There were no adverse outcomes (CRT, visual acuity, or visual field) from using multispot SS-PRP vs single-spot MS-PRP at 12 weeks postlaser, and treatment times were significantly shorter for multispot SS-PRP. Pascal SS-PRP was as effective as MS-PRP in the treatment of PDR. Application to Clinical Practice Twenty-millisecond Pascal SS-PRP may be safely and rapidly performed in 1500 burns with a similar efficacy to conventional MS-PRP.

A patient was treated bilaterally for myopia using laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK). Preoperatively, there was no known risk factor for ectasia but a 20 μm between-eye difference in central mean corneal thickness was seen on the optical pachymetry map. Two years postoperatively, bilateral ectasia was diagnosed. This case suggests that abstention or surface ablation treatment may be a safer option than LASIK in patients showing central thickness asymmetry between eyes.Financial Disclosure: Neither aut

Not only was this patient overcorrected, the postoperative topographic maps show that the treatment was decentered (temporally) in both eyes. Primary hyperopic correction of more than 5.00 or 6.00 D with conventional or custom wavefront LASIK, PRK, laser-assisted subepithelial keratectomy, or conductive keratoplasty is very difficult to treat without regression. Although wavefront-guided retreatment for consecutive hyperopia after primary myopic treatment has been reported, most patients had low preoperat

A 39-year-old woman who had bilateral laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) 5 months ago presents for poor quality of vision in both eyes. She has no significant systemic history. Before LASIK, the refraction was −5.25 +0.75 × 90 and the corrected distance visual acuity (CDVA) 20/20 in both eyes. The preoperative keratometry (K) readings were 43.50 diopters (D) and 44.37 D in the right eye and 43.62 D and 44.75 D in the left eye. shows the preoperative corneal topography and pachymetry maps.

Conclusions A single laser application to a PWB does not appear to show a clinically relevant change in intraocular pressure. Further study is needed longitudinally in a broad range of patients. (Source: Archives of Dermatology)

A patient was treated bilaterally for hyperopia (twice in the right eye and 3 times in the left eye) using laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) and achieved stable vision. Preoperatively, there was no known risk factor for ectasia.
