Post-operative follow-up was up to 3 years.Results: Of the 163 eyes, 67 were followed up for 1 year (mean 12.9 months), 69 for 2 years (mean 24.0 months) and 43 for 3 years (mean 36.4 months). Overall mean follow-up was 22.8 months (9– 46 months). The mean pre-operative spherical equivalent (SE) was − 8.60 ± 1.47 D [range: − 11.75 to − 4.75] (n = 163) and mean attempted correction SE was − 8.84 ± 1.41 D [range: − 11.88 to − 5.25]. Most eyes (> 95%) maintained an uncorrected distance visual acuity of 6/12 or better over 3 years. Visual outcomes were predictable with ≥ 95% of eyes achieving a SE correction within ± 1D of attempted correction over 3 years. There was a mild regression in SE refraction over 3 years with a mean of − 0.10 ± 0.45 D three years post-operatively (p = 0.03). The safety index was > 1.05 at 3 years follow-up. There were no significant post-operative complications though 24 eyes had mild haze and 2 eyes had grade 1 diffuse lamellar keratitis that resolved within 1 month.Conclusion: Our 3-year LASIK Xtra results show favorable safety, efficacy, predictability and stability outcomes in Asian patients with high myopia.Keywords: LASIK Xtra, refractive surgery, cross-linkingLim LLim EWLRosman MKoh JCWHtoon HMDove Medical Pressarticlelasik xtrarefractive surgerycross-linkingOphthalmologyRE1-994ENClinical Ophthalmology, Vol Volume 14, Pp 2865-2872 (2020)
