Conclusion Corneal spherical aberration and Z64 increased with corresponding increases in the internal spherical aberration and Z64 following LASIK. This may be an active compensatory mechanism of the internal optics to change, in order to reduce the effect of induced corneal HOA.

Photorefractive keratectomy, laser epithelial keratomileusis (LASEK) and Epi-LASIK are all variants of a similar type refractive surgery involving laser on the surface of the cornea and differ mainly in management of the epithelium. Although laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) is currently the most popular form of refractive surgery, LASEK is the procedure of choice in some patients. We highlight potential complications of LASEK and how these may be managed. Following laser refractive surgery, corneal th

In the consultation section of the January issue, the refractive surgical problem involved a patient who was operated on for a pterygium but the surgeon did not know that laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) had been performed 10 years previously. The LASIK flap was excised during surgery, and irregular astigmatism and corneal scarring developed. The patient's visual acuity deteriorated to 20/100.

Health-care can be divided into three groups. Thing you have to do like go to the emergency room when something bad happens, things you should do, like have a yearly physical, and the things you elect to do, like having LASIK vision correction. There has been much said in the recent health-care debate and newly passed legislation about the first two categories, and despite my strong beliefs in this area, I want to concentrate on the last category, those things that you can have if you want the

Conclusions Myopic correction by epi-LASIK surgery with all four methods showed stable visual results in terms of the 1-year postoperative clinical outcomes. Haziness levels revealed that treatment with 0.02% MMC was less effective than expected. Overall, the off-flap method offered faster visual recovery and less postoperative pain than the on-flap method. (Source: British Journal of Ophthalmology)

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

Authors: Liu A, Manche EE The authors report anterior segment optical coherence tomography (OCT) imaging findings in a case of central toxic keratopathy following laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) surgery for low hyperopia.

This corresponds to the clinical observation of interface opacity extending posteri

Authors: Srinivasan S, Herzig S The femtosecond laser is gaining popularity as a safe and effective alternative to the microkeratome for creating corneal flaps during LASIK. Rarely, gas bubble formation in the anterior chamber during laser flap creation can interfere with the eye tracking and iris registration software during the subsequent excimer laser ablation. Surgical steps to ensure successful eye tracking and iris registration in such cases are described in this report. PMID: 20415292 [PubM

Conclusions. Topical administration of T1225 oil-based azithromycin eyedrops was well tolerated in both unmanipulated hen corneas and those treated with corneal refractive surgery (PRK and LASIK). T1225 demonstrated a potent antibiotic effect after LASIK treatment. PMID: 20544676 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher] (Source: European Journal of Ophthalmology)

Conclusions. The authors describe an accurate and reliable setup to measure and record in vivo real-time changes in IOP measurement from the anterior chamber during laser surgery. Femtosecond laser flap creation exerts less extreme IOP fluctuations with improved chamber stability but requires more procedure time than does microkeratome. (Source: Investigative Ophthalmology)

In reference to the article describing histological examination of epi-LASIK flaps, we report a unique postoperative problem. A 22-year-old man had epi-LASIK in both eyes after standard refractive surgery evaluation. The refractive error was −2.00 diopters sphere (DS) in each eye. Intraoperatively, the patient squeezed his eyes as the epikeratome was creating the epithelial flap. The epithelial flaps appeared thin and were spontaneously amputated.
