Prospective, nonrandomized, self-controlled trial. Wavefront-guided LASIK was performed in 97 eyes in a 1-year trial. Treated eyes had a mean subjective manifest spheric al equivalent (SE) of -5.22±2.07 diopters (D), with a range of -0.25 to -9.0 0 D of myopia and 0 to -3.25 D of astigmatism. After a microkeratome cut, a wav efront-based excimer ablation (Zyoptix 3.1) was performed. The full treatment t o achieve emmetropia of an early nomogram provided by the system manufacturer wa s used in all procedures. Safety, efficacy, predictability, and stability were e valuated at 1, 3, and 12 months postoperatively. Wavefront changes of higher ord er aberrations (HOAs) at 1 year were determined for pupil sizes of 3.5 and 6 mm. At 1 year postoperatively, uncorrected visual acuity (VA) was 20/20 or better i n 83%of the eyes, and 20/40 or better in 98%. The mean subjective manifest SE at 1 year was -0.25±0.43 D; it was within 0.50 D in 77%and within 1.0 D in 95 %. No eye lost < 2 lines of best spectacle corrected VA (BSCVA) at 1 year post operatively; 40 eyes gained 1 line of BSCVA, and 5 eyes gained 2 lines. The tota l HOA root meansquare (RMS) increased on average by a factor of 1.23±0.57 with a 3.5-mm pupil; for the 6 mm pupil, the increase factor was 1.52±0.36. No chan ge or reduction in the total HOA RMS was observed in 45.5%of the eyes for a 3.5 -mm pupil and in 20.6%for a 6-mm pupil. There was a significant increase of p rimary spherical aberration (Z 4,0) by a factor of 4.11±10.17 for 3.5-mm pupil s and 4.31±6.76 for 6-mm pupils. Wavefront-guided LASIK using Zyoptix 3.1 is an effective and safe procedure for the treatment of myopia and myopic astigmati sm. Although in close to half of the eyes HOAs could be reduced, there was still undercorrection and induction of HOAs with the algorithm employed.展开更多

Design: Prospective,randomized,comparative clinical study. Participants: Twenty eyes of 20 consecutive patients (spherical equivalent SE,-2.01± 1.36 diopters D) treated with wavefront-guided Zyoptix Ablation Refinement software (ZAR) LASIK and 20 eyes of 20 consecutive patients (SE,-1.81± 1.21D) treated with standard Planoscan LASIK,both for residual refractive error enhancement. Main Outcome Measures: Efficacy,safety,predictability,stability,HOAs,and CS were evaluated before and after enhancement at 6 months’ follow-up. Methods: Uncorrected visual acuity (UCVA),bestcorrected visual acuity (BCVA),manifest refraction,CS by means of the Functional Acuity Contrast Test,and HOAs by means of Zywave aberrometry were evaluated preoperatively and 6 months after retreatment. Results: At 6 months postoperatively,UCVA was 20/25 or better in 100% of the eyes. Efficacy indexes were 1.09 for ZAR patients and 0.95 for Planoscan patients. No eyes lost <1 line of BCVA; in the ZAR group,2 eyes gained 1 line and 6 eyes gained < 2 lines; in the Planoscan group,3 eyes gained 1 line. The ZAR group showed a percentage of eyes (94.4% ) within the 0.5-D range in SE higher than that shown by the Planoscan group (88.8% ). After 6 months,the HOA root mean square (RMS) increased on average by a factor of 1.44 for the Planoscan group (P= 0.003). No change or reduction in HOA RMS was found in the ZAR group (factor of 0.96; P >0.01). Contrast sensitivity was reduced in the Planoscan group only at the highest spatial frequency (18 cycles per degree; P< 0.01). There was a significant reduction of CS as a function of HOA increase for the Planoscan group (P< 0.0001). No changes were observed for the ZAR group at any spatial frequency (1.5-18 cycles per degree; P >0.01). Conclusions: Wavefront-guided LASIK using the ZAR algorithm is an effective and safe procedure for treatment of residual refractive errors. Wavefront-guided LASIKdoes not increase HOAs and does not modify CS compared with preoperative values. Wavefront-guided LASIK seems to be better than standard LASIK for retreatments.展开更多
