Response to: WaveLight® Contoura topography-guided planning: contribution of anterior corneal higher-order aberrations and posterior corneal astigmatism to manifest refractive astigmatism
Manoj Motwani Motwani Lasik Institute, San Diego, CA, USA I would like to thank Wallerstein et al1 for his thoughtful research letter, but I do have some issue with the analysis. The paper references only Part 1 of the LYRA Protocol series, and not the other two parts. Part 3 provides the...
