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

Ideally, patients at risk of ectasia should be identified prior to laser as unsuitable for LASIK, however, at present, there is no absolute test, system, or marker that can unequivocally identify patients at risk of developing ectasia. It has been suggested that changes in the forward protrusion of the posterior cornea or posterior corneal elevation(PCE) may be a key to the early detection of ectasia after LASIK. The purpose of this study was to examine the long term changes of the PCE after myopic LASIK using the ORBSCAN~ IIz(Bausch & Lomb, Rochester, USA) and to evaluate the contributory preoperative factors to PCE changes.Methods: This was a retrospective longitudinal case series. Forty-two eyes of 23 consecutive myopic patients who underwent uneventful LASIK surgery 6 years ago were recalled for a postoperative follow-up examination using the ORBSCAN~ IIz to determine the elevation changes to the posterior corneal surface from the preoperative measurements. A forward shift of the posterior surface was given a negative value. Correlation analyses and forward stepwise regression analyses were performed to evaluate the effect of each of the preoperative parameters on the changes in PCE. Statistical and graphical analyses were performed.Results: There was no statistical difference between the mean best-fit sphere(BFS) pre-LASIK and 6 years postop(P=0.25). Forty-two post-LASIK eyes had a mean posterior displacement of -9.38±9.84 μm(range, 12 to-31 μm) 6 years after LASIK. Forward stepwise multiple linear regression analysis indicated that the ablation spherical equivalent(ASE) was the only indicator of the forward shift of the posterior cornea after LASIK.Conclusions: The present study identified a significant forward shift of the posterior cornea 6 years after LASIK. The ASE was the most significant prognostic determinant for forward protrusion of the posterior cornea after LASIK.展开更多

The patients underwent preventive photocoagulation 1 month before the laser surgery for myopia.Results All the eyes that received preventive photocoagulation for retinoschisis had no further progression or retinal detachment during 4-year period of follow-up.Conclusion The degenerative retinoschisis in young adults should be recognized and treated with preventive photocoagulation.This may prevent further damage of visual field and other complications of slowly progressive retinoschisis after LASIK surgery.展开更多
