Summary

Laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) eye surgery continues to be the most common refractive procedure used to correct different forms of ametropia. Although the introduction of femtosecond technology has markedly reduced the incidence of intraoperative flap complications and allowed a better control on flap parameters, dry eye remains one of the most challenging postoperative complications.

Conditions

  • Myopic LASIK Candidates With Spherical Equivalent up to - 10 Diopters

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Laser in situ keratomileusis

Laser in situ keratomileusis LASIK is a procedure used to correct different types of ametropia through a creation of corneal flap whether with femtosecond laser or mechanically with a microkeratome followed by application of excimer laser to correct different refractive errors including Myopia, Hyperopia and Astigmatism.
