Context 1
... Deeper layers are more strictly organized than superficial layers, and this difference accounts for the greater ease of surgical dissection in a particular plane as one approaches the posterior depths of the corneal stroma. [10] Keratocytes (as illustrated in Figure 3) are the major cell type of the stroma and are involved in maintaining the ECM environment. They are able to synthesize collagen molecules and glycosaminoglycans while also creating matrix metalloproteases (MMPs), all crucial in maintaining stromal homeostasis. ...

Background and objectives:
The aim of the research was to investigate the differences in the concentrations of IL-12, IL-4, IL-10, and IFN-γ in tears after LASIK and PRK procedures.
Materials and methods:
The study included 68 myopic eyes up to -3.0 D refractive spherical equivalent, divided into two groups: Group 1 LASIK (n = 31) and Group 2 PR...
Background:
A new method, the Iida-Shimizu-Shoji (ISS) method, is proposed for calculating intraocular lens (IOL) power that combines the anterior-posterior ratio of the corneal radius of the curvature after laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) and to compare the predictability of the method with that of other IOL formulas after LASIK.
Methods:...
Purpose:
To determine the long-term visual outcomes of simultaneous femtosecond laser-assisted laser in situ keratomileusis (femto-LASIK) and accelerated cross-linking (CXL) [LASIK Xtra] for the treatment of high myopia.
Patients and methods:
All 163 consecutive eyes of 85 patients who underwent LASIK Xtra for the treatment of high myopia and/or...
Introduction:
Treatment of mixed astigmatism with laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) is complex as the correction requires flattening the cornea in one meridian while steepening the cornea in the other meridian. The bitoric technique has become the most popular approach and has been tested across a variety of platforms. This study is the first t...
Incidence and clinical results of intraoperative flap and interface-related complications were investigated after Femtosecond-LASIK surgery, where flap creation was performed with VisuMax® femtosecond laser. A retrospective 10-year cohort study was conducted including all eyes treated for all refractive errors by Femtosecond-LASIK technique. All th...
