Corneal stromal roughness after VisuMax and Intralase femtosecond laser photodisruption: An atomic force microscopy study.
<h4>Purpose</h4>To compare the induced corneal stromal bed roughness measured with atomic force microscopy (AFM) after LASIK flap creation with the IntraLase 60 kHz and the VisuMax femtosecond laser platforms.<h4>Methods</h4>Three freshly enucleated porcine eyes were operated...
