Follow-up visits were conducted for at least 12-months.Results: The change from pre- to postoperative mean refractive error was from −5.29 ± 2.39 diopters (D) (range −8.0 to −0.50 D) to −0.27 ± 0.09 D at the 3 month visit, −0.27 ± 0.10 D at the 6 month visit, and −0.39 ± 0.08 D at the 1-year visit. The change from pre- to postoperative refractive astigmatism was −1.07 ± 0.91 D (range −4.25 to 0 D) to −0.14 ± 0.04 D at 3 months, −0.15 ± 0.04 at 6 months, and −0.16 ± 0.04 at the one-year visit. The proportion of the eyes with postoperative astigmatism within 0.5 D ranged between 95.6% and 99%. The proportion of eyes achieving uncorrected distance visual acuity of 1.0 (decimal) was 93.0%.Conclusion: The myopic LASIK clinical results with the FS200 Femtosecond Laser and EX500 Excimer Laser showed outstanding efficacy, great safety, and long-term stability.Keywords: bladeless LASIK flap, femtosecond laser, myopic correction, long-term stability, regression, astigmatism correction, post-LASIK refractionKanellopoulos AJAsimellis GDove Medical PressarticleOphthalmologyRE1-994ENClinical Ophthalmology, Vol 2013, Iss default, Pp 261-269 (2013) |
