METHODS: In this prospective, non-randomized comparative study, 78 eyes with spherical equivalent (SE) of -8.11±1.09 diopters (D) received a SMILE surgery, and 65 eyes with SE of -8.05±1.12 D received a wavefront-guided FS-LASIK surgery with the VisuMax femtosecond laser (Carl Zeiss Meditec, Jena, Germany) for flap cutting. Visual acuity, manifest refraction, CS, HOAs, ocular surface disease index (OSDI) and tear break-up time (TBUT) were evaluated during a 3-year follow-up. RESULTS: The difference of uncorrected distance visual acuity (UDVA) postoperatively was achieved at lmo and at 3mo, whereas the difference of the mean UDVA between two groups at 3y were not statistically significant (t=-1.59, P=-0.13). The postoperative change of SE was 0.89 D in the FS-LASIK group (t=5.76, P=0.00), and 0.14 D in the SMILE group (t=-0.54, P=0.59) from lmo to 3y after surgery. At 3-year postoperatively, both HOAs and spherical aberrations in the SMILE group were obviously less than those in the FS-LASIK group (P=0.00), but the coma root mean square (RMS) was higher in the SMILE group (0.59±0.26) than in the FS-LASIK group (0.29±0.14, P=0.00). The mesopic CS values between two groups were not statistically significant at 3y postoperatively. Compared with the FS-LASIK group, lower OSDI scores and longer TBUT values were found in the SMILE group at Imo and 3mo postoperatively. With regard to safety, no eye lost any line of CDVA in both groups at 3y after surgery. CONCLUSION: Both SMILE and wavefront-guided FS- LASIK procedures provide good visual outcomes. Both procedures are effective and safe, but SMILE surgery achieve more stable long-term refractive outcome and better control of early postoperative dry eye as compared to FS-LASIK.展开更多

METH...AIM: To examine differences in efficacy, accuracy, safety, aberrations and corneal biomechanical between Small incision lenticule extraction (SMILE) and femtosecond lenticule extraction (FLEx) for myopia. METHODS: Comprehensive studies were conducted on the PubMed, MEDLINE, EMBASE, and Cochrane Controlled Trials Register before 31 July, 2015. Meta-analyses were performed on the primary outcomes [loss of ≥2 lines of corrected distance visual acuity (CDVA), uncorrected distance visual acuity (UDVA) ≥20/20, spherical equivalent (SE) within ±0.50 diopters (D), final refractive SE], secondary outcomes were high-order aberrations (HOAs) and corneal biomechanical [central corneal thickness (CCT), corneal hysteresis (CH) and corneal resistance factor (CRF)]. RESULTS: Seven trials describing a total of 320 eyes with myopia were included in this Meta-analysis. No significant differences were found in the efficacy [UDVA weighted mean difference (WMD) -0.01; 95%CI: -0.04 to 0.01; P=0.37, UDVA ≥20/20, OR 1.49; 95%CI: 0.78 to 2.86; P=0.23], accuracy (SE WMD -0.03; 95%CI: -0.12 to 0.07; P=0.58 , SE within ±0.5 D OR 1.25; 95%CI: 0.34 to 4.65; P=0.74), HOAs (WMD -0.04; 95%CI: -0.09 to 0.01; P=0.14) and CCT WMD 1.83; 95%CI: -7.07 to 10.72; P=0.69, CH WMD -0.01; 95%CI: -0.42 to 0.40; P=0.97, CRF WMD 0.17; 95%CI: -0.33 to 0.67; P=0.50) in the last fellow-up. But for safety, FLEx may achieve fewer CDVA lost two or more two lines (OR 11.11; 95%CI: 1.27 to 96.86; P=0.03) than SMILE, however CDVA (WMD 0.00; 95%CI: -0.03 to 0.02; P=0.77) is similar. CONCLUSION: SMILE and FLEx are comparable in terms of both efficacy, accuracy, aberrations and corneal biomechanical measures in the follow-up,but FLEx seems to be better in safety measures. The results should be interpreted cautiously since relevant evidence is still limited, although it is accumulating. Further large-scale, well-designed randomized controlled trials are urgently needed.展开更多

METH...AIM: To evaluate the effects of femtosecond laser-assisted in situ keratomileusis(FS-LASIK) and small-incision lenticule extraction(SMILE) to correct high myopic anisometropic amblyopia in juvenile patients. METHODS: From November 2013 to January 2015, 33 amblyopic patients with high myopic anisometropic amblyopia were studied. FS-LASIK(30 eyes) or SMILE(3 eyes) was performed in the amblyopic eyes. Visual acuity, refraction, contrast sensitivity, stereoacuity and complications were evaluated. Patients completed followup examinations at 3 d, 1 mo, 3 mo and the last follow-up time(mean 8.17±3.23 mo) after surgery. RESULTS: The mean age at surgery was 9.04±3.04 y(range 6-16 y). The mean spherical equivalent in the amblyopic eyes was significantly decreased from-10.00±2.39 D preoperatively to-0.06±1.06 D at 1 mo,-0.19±1.33 D at 3 mo and-0.60±1.43 D at approximately 8 mo postoperatively(P〈0.05 for all). The mean myopic anisometropia was significantly decreased from-9.45±2.33 D preoperatively to +0.37±1.48 D at 1 mo,-0.46±1.47 D at 3 mo and-0.09±1.83 D at approximately 8 mo(P〈0.05 for all). The logarithm of the minimum angle of resolution(log MAR) for uncorrected and corrected distance visual acuity(UDVA and CDVA, respectively) of the amblyopic eye improved from 1.74±0.35 and 0.98±0.63 preoperatively to 0.45±0.31 and 0.41±0.33 at approximately 8 mo after surgery, respectively. The logM AR CDVA at 3 d, 1, 3 and 8 mo postoperatively improved by means of 1.42, 2.22, 2.96, and 4.39 lines, and a gain of more than two lines accounted for 45%, 50%, 74% and 86% of all patients, respectively. The contrast sensitivity of both amblyopic eyes and dominant eyes at 0.5, 2, 8 cycles perdegree was significantly improved postoperatively(P〈0.05 for all). Of the 33 pediatric patients, no patients had near stereopsis preoperatively and seven patients(21.2%) recovered near stereopsis(400″ to 60″) at approximately 8 mo after surgery. No intraoperative or postoperative complications occurred in any patient.CONCLUSION: FS-LASIK or SMILE can be promising alternative methods to correct high myopic anisometropic amblyopia in juvenile patients who have failed with traditional approaches.展开更多

Pre-and postoperative uncorrected visual acuity(UCVA), spherical equivalent refraction(SEQ), cylindrical refraction, contrast sensitivity function(CSF), and corneal higher-order aberrations(HOAs) were evaluated. Independent t-test was used for inter-group comparison, while repeated measures ANOVA was used to analyze changes at different time points. RESULTS: In both groups, 100% of the eyes obtained a UCVA of 20/20 or better at 1 wk, 1, and 3 mo postoperatively. At 1 d and 3 mo postoperatively, UCVA was better in FS-LASIKCV group than in SMILE group. At 1 wk postoperatively, SEQ was lower in SMILE group than in FS-LASIK-CV group(P=0.006). At 3 mo postoperatively, the SEQ reached target refraction in both groups. The residual astigmatism was reduced in both groups without intergroup difference(P>0.05). At 3 mo postoperatively, the spherical aberration and coma under 6 mm pupil size were higher than preoperative levels in both groups(P<0.05). However, the increase in the corneal HOAs in the FS-LASIK-CV group was less than the SMILE group(P<0.05). At 3 mo postoperatively, the log CS were better than preoperative levels under scotopic conditions without glare and scotopic conditions with glare in both groups(P<0.05). At 1 and 3 mo postoperatively, under scotopic conditions without glare and scotopic conditions with glare, FS-LASIK-CV group showed more improvement in log CS at two spatial frequencies(12.0 c/d and 18.0 c/d;P<0.05).CONCLUSION: Both FS-LASIK-CV and SMILE demonstrate to be safe, effective, and predictable in treatment of myopia and myopic astigmatism. Early postoperative improvement in UCVA and CSF at high spatial frequency under scotopic conditions were better after FS-LASIK-CV than SMILE.展开更多

The included studies were subject to a Meta-analysis. Comparison between SMILE and FLEx was measured as pooled odds ratio(OR) or weighted mean differences(WMD). Of 95% confidence intervals(CI) were used to analyze data.·RESULTS: A total of seven studies were included Firstly, there were no differences in uncorrected distance visual acuity(UDVA) 20/20 or better(OR, 1.37; 95% CI0.69 to 2.69; P =0.37) and log MAR UDVA(WMD,-0.02;95% CI,-0.05 to 0.01; P =0.17) after SMILE versus FLEx We found no differences in corrected distance visua acuity(CDVA) unchanged(OR, 0.98; 95% CI, 0.46 to 2.11;P =0.97) and log MAR CDVA(WMD,-0.00; 95% CI,-0.01 to 0.01; P =0.90) either. Secondly, we found no differences in refraction within ±1.00 D(OR, 0.98; 95% CI0.13 to 7.28; P =0.99) and ±0.50 D(OR, 1.62; 95% CI0.62 to 4.28; P =0.33) of target postoperatively. Thirdly for higher-order aberrations, we found no differences in the total higher-order aberrations(WMD,-0.04; 95%CI,-0.09 to 0.01;P =0.14), coma(WMD,-0.04; 95% CI,-0.09 to 0.01; P =0.11), spherical(WMD, 0.01; 95% CI,-0.02 to0.03; P =0.60) and trefoil(WMD,-0.00; 95% CI,-0.04 to0.03; P =0.76). Furthermore, for corneal biomechanica parameters, we also found no differences(WMD, 0.08;95% CI,-0.17 to 0.33; P =0.54) after SMILE versus FLEx.·CONCLUSION: There are no statistically differences in efficacy, safety, predictability, higher-order aberrations and corneal biomechnical parameters postoperative between SMILE and FLEx.展开更多
文摘AIM: To compare and calculate the 3-year refractive results, higher-order aberrations (HOAs), contrast sensitivity (CS) and dry eye parameters after small incision lenticule extraction (SMILE) and wavefront-guided femtosecond laser-assisted laser in situ keratomileusis (FS-LASIK) for correction of high myopia and myopic astigmatism. METHODS: In this prospective, non-randomized comparative study, 78 eyes with spherical equivalent (SE) of -8.11±1.09 diopters (D) received a SMILE surgery, and 65 eyes with SE of -8.05±1.12 D received a wavefront-guided FS-LASIK surgery with the VisuMax femtosecond laser (Carl Zeiss Meditec, Jena, Germany) for flap cutting. Visual acuity, manifest refraction, CS, HOAs, ocular surface disease index (OSDI) and tear break-up time (TBUT) were evaluated during a 3-year follow-up. RESULTS: The difference of uncorrected distance visual acuity (UDVA) postoperatively was achieved at lmo and at 3mo, whereas the difference of the mean UDVA between two groups at 3y were not statistically significant (t=-1.59, P=-0.13). The postoperative change of SE was 0.89 D in the FS-LASIK group (t=5.76, P=0.00), and 0.14 D in the SMILE group (t=-0.54, P=0.59) from lmo to 3y after surgery. At 3-year postoperatively, both HOAs and spherical aberrations in the SMILE group were obviously less than those in the FS-LASIK group (P=0.00), but the coma root mean square (RMS) was higher in the SMILE group (0.59±0.26) than in the FS-LASIK group (0.29±0.14, P=0.00). The mesopic CS values between two groups were not statistically significant at 3y postoperatively. Compared with the FS-LASIK group, lower OSDI scores and longer TBUT values were found in the SMILE group at Imo and 3mo postoperatively. With regard to safety, no eye lost any line of CDVA in both groups at 3y after surgery. CONCLUSION: Both SMILE and wavefront-guided FS- LASIK procedures provide good visual outcomes. Both procedures are effective and safe, but SMILE surgery achieve more stable long-term refractive outcome and better control of early postoperative dry eye as compared to FS-LASIK.

文摘BACKGROUND Diffuse lamellar keratitis(DLK)is a complication of laser-assisted in situ keratomileusis(LASIK).This condition can also develop after small-incision lenticule extraction(SMILE)with a distinctive appearance.We report the case involving a female patient with delayed onset DLK accompanied by immunoglobulin A(IgA)nephropathy.CASE SUMMARY A 22-year-old woman was referred to our department for DLK and a decline in vision 1 mo after undergoing SMILE.The initial examination showed grade 2 DLK in the flap involving the central visual axis of the right eye.She was immediately administered with a large dose of a topical steroid for 30 d.However,the treatment was ineffective.Her vision deteriorated from 10/20 to 6/20,and DLK gradually worsened from grade 2 to 4.Eventually,interface washout was performed,after which her vision improved.DLK completely disappeared 2 mo after washout.Six months after SMILE,the patient was diagnosed with IgA nephropathy due to a 4-year history of interstitial hematuria.CONCLUSION DLK is a typical complication of LASIK but can also develop after SMILE.Topical steroid therapy was ineffective in our patient,and interface washout was required.IgA nephropathy could be one of the factors contributing to the development of delayed DLK after SMILE.

文摘AIM: To evaluate the effects of femtosecond laser-assisted in situ keratomileusis(FS-LASIK) and small-incision lenticule extraction(SMILE) to correct high myopic anisometropic amblyopia in juvenile patients. METHODS: From November 2013 to January 2015, 33 amblyopic patients with high myopic anisometropic amblyopia were studied. FS-LASIK(30 eyes) or SMILE(3 eyes) was performed in the amblyopic eyes. Visual acuity, refraction, contrast sensitivity, stereoacuity and complications were evaluated. Patients completed followup examinations at 3 d, 1 mo, 3 mo and the last follow-up time(mean 8.17±3.23 mo) after surgery. RESULTS: The mean age at surgery was 9.04±3.04 y(range 6-16 y). The mean spherical equivalent in the amblyopic eyes was significantly decreased from-10.00±2.39 D preoperatively to-0.06±1.06 D at 1 mo,-0.19±1.33 D at 3 mo and-0.60±1.43 D at approximately 8 mo postoperatively(P〈0.05 for all). The mean myopic anisometropia was significantly decreased from-9.45±2.33 D preoperatively to +0.37±1.48 D at 1 mo,-0.46±1.47 D at 3 mo and-0.09±1.83 D at approximately 8 mo(P〈0.05 for all). The logarithm of the minimum angle of resolution(log MAR) for uncorrected and corrected distance visual acuity(UDVA and CDVA, respectively) of the amblyopic eye improved from 1.74±0.35 and 0.98±0.63 preoperatively to 0.45±0.31 and 0.41±0.33 at approximately 8 mo after surgery, respectively. The logM AR CDVA at 3 d, 1, 3 and 8 mo postoperatively improved by means of 1.42, 2.22, 2.96, and 4.39 lines, and a gain of more than two lines accounted for 45%, 50%, 74% and 86% of all patients, respectively. The contrast sensitivity of both amblyopic eyes and dominant eyes at 0.5, 2, 8 cycles perdegree was significantly improved postoperatively(P〈0.05 for all). Of the 33 pediatric patients, no patients had near stereopsis preoperatively and seven patients(21.2%) recovered near stereopsis(400″ to 60″) at approximately 8 mo after surgery. No intraoperative or postoperative complications occurred in any patient.CONCLUSION: FS-LASIK or SMILE can be promising alternative methods to correct high myopic anisometropic amblyopia in juvenile patients who have failed with traditional approaches.

Pre-and postoperative uncorrected visual acuity(UCVA), spherical equivalent refraction(SEQ), cylindrical refraction, contrast sensitivity function(CSF), and corneal higher-order aberrations(HOAs) were evaluated. Independent t-test was used for inter-group comparison, while repeated measures ANOVA was used to analyze changes at different time points. RESULTS: In both groups, 100% of the eyes obtained a UCVA of 20/20 or better at 1 wk, 1, and 3 mo postoperatively. At 1 d and 3 mo postoperatively, UCVA was better in FS-LASIKCV group than in SMILE group. At 1 wk postoperatively, SEQ was lower in SMILE group than in FS-LASIK-CV group(P=0.006). At 3 mo postoperatively, the SEQ reached target refraction in both groups. The residual astigmatism was reduced in both groups without intergroup difference(P>0.05). At 3 mo postoperatively, the spherical aberration and coma under 6 mm pupil size were higher than preoperative levels in both groups(P<0.05). However, the increase in the corneal HOAs in the FS-LASIK-CV group was less than the SMILE group(P<0.05). At 3 mo postoperatively, the log CS were better than preoperative levels under scotopic conditions without glare and scotopic conditions with glare in both groups(P<0.05). At 1 and 3 mo postoperatively, under scotopic conditions without glare and scotopic conditions with glare, FS-LASIK-CV group showed more improvement in log CS at two spatial frequencies(12.0 c/d and 18.0 c/d;P<0.05).CONCLUSION: Both FS-LASIK-CV and SMILE demonstrate to be safe, effective, and predictable in treatment of myopia and myopic astigmatism. Early postoperative improvement in UCVA and CSF at high spatial frequency under scotopic conditions were better after FS-LASIK-CV than SMILE.
文摘AIM: To identify possible differences of efficacy, safety predictability, higher-order aberrations and cornea biomechnical parameters after small-incision lenticule extraction(SMILE) and femtosecond lenticule extraction(FLEx).· METHODS: A systematic literature retrieval was conducted in Medline,Embase and the Cochrane Library up to October, 2015. The included studies were subject to a Meta-analysis. Comparison between SMILE and FLEx was measured as pooled odds ratio(OR) or weighted mean differences(WMD). Of 95% confidence intervals(CI) were used to analyze data.·RESULTS: A total of seven studies were included Firstly, there were no differences in uncorrected distance visual acuity(UDVA) 20/20 or better(OR, 1.37; 95% CI0.69 to 2.69; P =0.37) and log MAR UDVA(WMD,-0.02;95% CI,-0.05 to 0.01; P =0.17) after SMILE versus FLEx We found no differences in corrected distance visua acuity(CDVA) unchanged(OR, 0.98; 95% CI, 0.46 to 2.11;P =0.97) and log MAR CDVA(WMD,-0.00; 95% CI,-0.01 to 0.01; P =0.90) either. Secondly, we found no differences in refraction within ±1.00 D(OR, 0.98; 95% CI0.13 to 7.28; P =0.99) and ±0.50 D(OR, 1.62; 95% CI0.62 to 4.28; P =0.33) of target postoperatively. Thirdly for higher-order aberrations, we found no differences in the total higher-order aberrations(WMD,-0.04; 95%CI,-0.09 to 0.01;P =0.14), coma(WMD,-0.04; 95% CI,-0.09 to 0.01; P =0.11), spherical(WMD, 0.01; 95% CI,-0.02 to0.03; P =0.60) and trefoil(WMD,-0.00; 95% CI,-0.04 to0.03; P =0.76). Furthermore, for corneal biomechanica parameters, we also found no differences(WMD, 0.08;95% CI,-0.17 to 0.33; P =0.54) after SMILE versus FLEx.·CONCLUSION: There are no statistically differences in efficacy, safety, predictability, higher-order aberrations and corneal biomechnical parameters postoperative between SMILE and FLEx.
