Cigarette Smoking is Negatively Associated With Keratoconus
Tập 24 Số 7 - 2008
PURPOSE
To investigate a correlation between cigarette smoking and keratoconus.
METHODS
Patients with keratoconus who were treated with corneal collagen cross-linking from June 2006 to November 2007 were asked about their smoking habits. A person smoking a minimum of two cigarettes per day for more than 1 year was classified as a smoker.
RESULTS
A total of
...Effect of Acute Biomechanical Changes on Corneal Curvature After Photokeratectomy
Tập 17 Số 6 - Trang 658-669 - 2001
ABSTRACT PURPOSE: Unintended hyperopia shift; is a common yet poorly understood
complication of phototherapeutic keratectomy (PTK) that raises fondamental
questions about the etiology of corneal curvature change in PRK and LASIK. We
investigated the relative contributions of ablation profile and peripheral
stromal thickening to intraoperative PTK-indueed central flattening, and propose
a biomechan...
Complications of Laser in situ Keratomileusis: Etiology, Prevention, and Treatment
Tập 17 Số 3 - Trang 350-379 - 2001
ABSTRACT PURPOSE: To review the etiology, prevention, and management of laser in
situ keratomileusis (LASIK) complications. METHODS: Review of literature and the
experience of the authors. RESULTS: Careful preoperative screening is critical
to prevention of many potential complications of LASIK. Flap complications that
occur during surgery are typically managed by replacement of the flap and
repea...
Comparison of Visual and Refractive Outcomes Following Femtosecond Laser-Assisted LASIK With SMILE in Patients With Myopia or Myopic Astigmatism
Tập 30 Số 9 - Trang 590-596 - 2014
PURPOSE: To compare the visual and refractive outcomes of femtosecond
laser-assisted LASIK with small-incision lenticule extraction (SMILE) in terms
of visual acuity, contrast sensitivity, aberrations, and dry eye. METHODS: A
single-center prospective randomized study in which patients diagnosed as having
myopia presenting for refractive correction were allocated to either a LASIK or
SMILE group. ...
IntraLase Femtosecond Laser vs Mechanical Microkeratomes in LASIK for Myopia: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis
Tập 28 Số 1 - Trang 15-24 - 2012
PURPOSE: To evaluate the safety, efficacy, and predictability of IntraLase
(Abbott Medical Optics) femtosecond laser–assisted compared to
microkeratome-assisted myopic LASIK. METHODS: A comprehensive literature search
of Cochrane Library, PubMed, and EMBASE was conducted to identify relevant
trials comparing LASIK with IntraLase femtosecond laser to LASIK with
microkeratomes for the correction of ...
Correction of Presbyopia by Technovision Central Multifocal LASIK (PresbyLASIK)
Tập 22 Số 5 - Trang 453-460 - 2006
ABSTRACT PURPOSE: To investigate central multifocal presbyLASIK based on the
creation of a central hyperpositive area. METHODS: Twenty-five patients (50
eyes) underwent presbyLASIK in an open-label, prospective, non-comparative pilot
study. Mean patient age was 58 years (range: 51 to 68 years), mean preoperative
spherical equivalent refraction was +1.6 ± 0.63 diopters (D) (range: +0.50 to
+3.00 D)...
Results of Corneal Collagen Cross-linking in Pediatric Patients
Tập 28 Số 11 - Trang 759-762 - 2012
PURPOSE: To evaluate the safety and efficacy of corneal collagen cross-linking
(CXL) in the treatment of keratoconus in pediatric patients. METHODS:
Epithelium-off CXL using the standard protocol was performed in 15 eyes from 15
patients (age range: 10 to 15 years) with moderate keratoconus in 1 eye and
advanced disease in the fellow eye. Principal outcomes included uncorrected and
corrected dista...
Refractive Surgical Correction of Presbyopia with the AcuFocus Small Aperture Corneal Inlay: Two-Year Follow-Up
Tập 26 Số 10 - Trang 707-715 - 2010
Purpose: To evaluate the safety and efficacy of the AcuFocus Corneal Inlay 7000
(ACI 7000) implanted in emmetropic presbyopic patients for the improvement of
near and intermediate vision over 2-year follow-up. Methods: This prospective,
non-randomized, non-comparative study included 32 naturally emmetropic
presbyopic patients. The intracorneal inlay was implanted in the non-dominant
eye over the p...
LASIK for Hyperopic Astigmatism and Presbyopia Using Micro-monovision With the Carl Zeiss Meditec MEL80 Platform
Tập 25 Số 1 - Trang 37-58 - 2009
Purpose: To evaluate the monocular and binocular outcomes of LASIK for a
micro-monovision protocol for the correction of hyperopic astigmatism and
presbyopia. Methods: A prospective non-comparative case series included 258 eyes
of 129 consecutive patients with hyperopic astigmatism and presbyopia who were
treated with LASIK-induced micro-monovision. The CRS-Master software was used to
generate abl...
