Abstract:
Dry eye disease is the most frequent non-refractive postoperative complication following refractive surgery. This prospective study investigated the development of dry eye disease after three common refractive laser surgeries: laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK), photorefractive keratectomy (PRK), and laser-assisted sub-epithelial keratectomy (LASEK). Patients who underwent uneventful refractive surgery in a single private medical center between May 2017 and September 2020 were included. Ocular surface disease was graded according to the Dry Eye Workshop severity (DEWS) classification. Patients were examined 6 months following refractive surgery. The analysis included 251 eyes of 137 patients: 64 eyes (36 patients) after LASEK, 90 eyes (48 patients) after PRK, and 97 eyes (53 patients) after LASIK. At 6 months post-surgery, the DEWS score was higher for the LASIK than the PRK and LASEK groups (p = 0.01). For the total cohort, severe DEWS score (grades 3 and 4) at 6 months post-surgery was correlated with female gender (p = 0.01) and to the amount of refractive correction (p < 0.001), but not to age (p = 0.87). In conclusion, LASIK surgery and female gender were associated with dry eye. Patients, particularly those with high myopia, should be counseled about the risk of developing dry eye after refractive surgeries.

Abstract:
Background: Laser in situ corneal surgery (LASIK) This technique has been considered as the most widespread and most widely performed refractive intervention in eye surgery in the world, which may show a high satisfaction index among patients after surgery. Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the results of vision quality for patients suffering from myopia and astigmatism after LASIK surgery. Patients and methods: We conducted a cross-sectional study of 74 patients ages 28-54 who suffered from myopia and astigmatism who underwent LASIK surgery. This study extended from February 16, 2022, to September 9, 2023. This study determined the importance of LASIK surgery in improving the visual function of patients in the long term in terms of satisfaction and happiness after surgery, functional improvement, and achieving the expected quality of vision. Results: Our results found that the percentage of males, which included 47 patients, was greater than that of females, which included 27 patients. The data for both surgery time were (22.46 ± 0.8) minutes, and corneal thickness was (498 ± 4.0 microns, recovery time was (3.6 ± 2.4) days. Our outcomes found that the surgery to be a good option, and it was 98%. The main goal was achieved. It was 96%. They were satisfied with the result. It was 95.40%. Happiness after LASIK was 99%. Conclusion: LASIK surgery has shown that the surgical procedure is the most healing, the quickest to perform, and the safest, which increases functional improvement and which contributes significantly. Great quality optical resolution. Our results confirm that there is great patient satisfaction with LASIK surgery, which is attributed to the quality of this surgery, which improves visual ability in a safer and more accurate way.

Abstract:
Purpose: To investigate clinical characteristics and tear film biomarkers of patients with chronic dry eye disease (DED) following femtosecond laser–assisted laser in situ keratomileusis (FS-LASIK). Methods: Patients were divided into the chronic DED after FS-LASIK (n = 36), DED without FS-LASIK (n = 39), and normal control (without FS-LASIK; n = 34) groups. Dry eye, pain, and psychological-related symptoms were evaluated using the Ocular Surface Disease Index (OSDI), Numerical Rating Scale (NRS), Neuropathic Pain Symptom Inventory Modified for the Eye (NPSI-Eye), and Hamilton Anxiety Rating Scale (HAMA) questionnaires. Ocular surface parameters, tear cytokines, and neuropeptide concentrations were evaluated with specific tests. Results: The DED after FS-LASIK group showed higher corneal fluorescein staining scores, but lower OSDI and NPSI-Eye scores than the DED without FS-LASIK group (all P < .05). Corneal sensitivity and nerve density decreased in the DED after FS-LASIK group (all P < .01). Granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF), interleukin (IL)-17A, IL-23, alpha-melanocyte stimulating hormone (α-MSH), oxytocin, and substance P levels were highest in the DED after FS-LASIK group, followed by the DED without FS-LASIK and normal control groups (all P < .05). Interferon-γ and neurotensin levels were only significantly higher in the DED after FS-LASIK group (all P < .05). Conclusions: Patients with chronic DED after FS-LASIK showed milder ocular symptoms, greater epithelial damage, and higher levels of tear inflammatory cytokines and neuropeptides than patients with DED without FS-LASIK, indicating that the nervous and immune systems may play significant roles in FS-LASIK-related chronic DED development.

Abstract:
Dry eye is one of the most common complications following laser-assisted in situ keratomileusis (LASIK), with nearly all patients experiencing some degree of postoperative dry eye symptoms. Postoperative dry eye affects approximately 50% of patients at 1 week postoperatively, 40% at 1 month, and 20%-40% at 6 months postoperatively. LASIK can cause intracorneal nerve damage, goblet cell damage caused by suction, and can cause changes in the shape of the central cornea. Dry eye diagnosis can be made using a questionnaire to determine the patient's history, examination of tear break up time, staining of the eye surface using fluorescein or lissamine green, and Schirmer's test. This reserech use Literatur Review Method. Post-LASIK dry eye complaints such as irritation, red eyes, foreign body sensation, pain, gritty, and photophobia. Management of post-LASIK dry eyes can be done by giving tear supplements, anti-inflammatory agents, ointments and eye patches, and treatment of meibomian gland dysfunction. Post-LASIK dry eye usually peaks within a few months after surgery, and then improves in most patients 6-12 months after surgery. Although dry eye signs and symptoms are most common in the immediate postoperative period and are usually only temporary, a minority of individuals experience chronic and severe dry eye

Abstract:
The article presents treatment results of the dry eye syndrome after excimer laser refractive surgery (LASIK). This procedure often leads to dry eye symptoms and signs, so there should be a mandatory prescription of lubricative eye drops for up to 3-6 months. For treatment, non-preserved Gilan Comfort containing hyaluronic acid (Russian Federation trade mark) was used. The study included 30 patients after LASIK who received Gilan Comfort 4 times a day for 3 months. Treatment was well tolerated; there were no adverse effects in any of the patients. The treatment results observed in all 30 people consisted in distinct decrease of dry eye symptoms after 3 months of Gilan Comfort instillations after LASIK surgery.

Abstract:
Purpose: To improve the predictability, accuracy and stability of laser in-situ keratomileusis (LASIK), by evaluating the clinical, procedural and tissue response factors that affect refractive outcomes. Methods: Myopic LASIK surgeries (n=5,978) were carried out using the Technolas planoscan and Nidek EC-5000 excimer lasers. Clinical variables associated with a refractive outcome of within ??0.50 D of the target were identified using regression analysis. Possible procedural variations such as the timing of the procedure and accuracy of both the chosen keratome and excimer laser were evaluated. The predictability and accuracy of the ablation was assessed by measuring changes in corneal thickness during and after the procedure. Factors influencing the stability of refractive outcome were assessed. Results: Clinical factors associated with a refractive outcome of within ??0.50 D of the target included; corrections less than 5.00 DS (OR 0.21x, 95% CI 0.11-0.40x compared with corrections over -5.00 DS[referent]), patients younger than 40 years (patients over 50 OR 8.27x, 95% CI 3.41-20.03x, patients 40 to 50 years OR 1.93x, 95% CI 0.96-3.90x, compared with patients under 40[referent]) and average pre-operative curvatures between 43.50 and 45.50D (OR 0.39x, 95% CI 0.18-0.83 compared with curvatures of less than 43.50D [referent]). Refractive stability was improved using optic zone sizes between 5.5-6.0 mm, reduced myopic corrections, flatter pre-operative corneal curvatures and thicker corneal flaps (R??=25%, p<0.001). Procedural factors associated with poorer outcomes included: thinner measured flap thickness, deeper ablations and the use of the automated corneal shaper (ACS) microkeratome with a novice surgical team (R??=34%, p < 0.001). Delaying the ablation from 20 to 90 seconds (s) after flap lift was associated with a more stable refractive outcome at three months (p=0.017). In the 90 s following flap lift, the cornea thinned by 5??3%. The ablation rate per scan varied between procedures, however, the effect on refractive outcome was small (r=0.15, p=0.267). Changes in central corneal thickness indicated refractive stability (p=0.039). Conclusions: Applying the optimal clinical and procedural factors as described afforded a refractive outcome in a further 8% of cases, resulting in 94% to 96% of cases within ??0.50 DS of target. Refractive predictability was limited due to the inability of the keratome to produce a consistent corneal flap thickness and unexpected changes in corneal thickness. The accuracy of refractive outcome will decrease with larger ablations. The degree of refractive inaccuracy with high refractive corrections (> -10.00 D) can be over 1.00 D.

Abstract:
The aim of this study was to evaluate the safety and efficacy of LASIK as a refractive surgical procedure, using a repeated measures design to assess satisfaction of patients who had LASIK and to correlate clinical outcomes with detailed measures of patient satisfaction to document long-term viability, monitor changes over time and patients’ functional abilities post-operatively. Method In the study 216 post-LASIK subjects were randomly selected from among patients who underwent simultaneous bilateral LASIK using the Chiron Technolas 217C plano-scan excimer laser with the Chiron ACS (Automated Corneal Shaper) and the Hansatome microkeratome. The subjects were recruited from within one centre, and the procedures were performed by any one of three surgeons. The study also included 100 non-LASIK subjects as a control group, to compare and differentiate ocular symptoms and visual difficulties between LASIK and non-LASIK patients. Clinical data documented included visual acuity, subjective refraction, record of glasses and/or contact lenses prescription, corneal topography with EyeSys and Orbscan, slit lamp examination, surgical details, and any pre-existing eye disease/conditions and previous surgery or injury that might prevent the subjects from achieving their desired visual outcome post-operatively. Subjective patient satisfaction evaluation of the treatment group was assessed by subjects completing a survey questionnaire at 3 months, 6 months, 12 months and 24 months post-operatively. The control group subjects completed a comparable questionnaire and were assessed at baseline and 3 months later. Because the control group subjects did not have any surgical alterations, it was unnecessary for them to have more than one follow-up. Results LASIK achieved relatively high patient satisfaction, with only a small number of dissatisfied patients. It was effective in correcting myopia, hyperopia and astigmatism. However, there was some persistent under-correction in myopic spherical and minus cylindrical refractive errors. Hyperopic spherical correction was less effective, as there were more under- as well as over-correction, and the plus cylindrical correction tended to be under-corrected. The LASIK subjects’ post-operative distance uncorrected visual acuity was not as good as their pre-operative best corrected visual acuity, but it did not significantly correlate with patient satisfaction. The findings were consistent with other studies and confirmed the concept that patient satisfaction is not unidimensional and is not related to outcome solely in terms of visual acuity and residual refractive errors. Other contributing factors included problems with glare, rating of unaided distance and near vision, ability to drive at night, change in ability to perform social/recreational, home and work activities, change in overall quality of life, amount of information given prior to surgery, rating of surgery success, and surgery outcome relative to pre-operative expectations. These variables demonstrated distinctive differences between subjects who were satisfied and dissatisfied. Conclusions The findings of this study are consistent with those of earlier studies. However, the repeated measures design and the comparisons between LASIK subjects and the control group revealed some new insights that were previously undocumented. LASIK achieved high patient satisfaction, and factors associated with satisfaction were predictable, but sources of dissatisfaction were more idiosyncratic and contributing factors were identified.

Abstract:
Overview: Optical concepts as they relate to the ophthalmologic correction of vision in corneal laser vision correction and intraocular lens design was examined. Purpose: The interaction between the excimer laser and residual corneal tissue in laser vision correction produces unwanted side effects. Understanding the origin of these artifacts can lead to better procedures. Furthermore, accommodating intraocular lenses offer a potential for eliminating presbyopia. Understanding the properties of a new accommodating intraocular lens incorporating a deformable interface may lead to advances in cataract surgery. Introduction: Corneal surface irregularities following laser refractive procedures are commonly seen. They regularly result in a patient’s decreased best corrected visual acuity and decreased contrast sensitivity. These changes are only seen in biologic tissue and the etiology has been elusive. A thermal response has been theorized and was investigated in this research. In addition, intraocular lenses using a mechanically deforming interface to change their power in order to duplicate natural accommodation have been developed. The deforming interface(s) induce optical aberrations due to irregular deformations. Design efforts have centered on minimizing these deformations. Both of the ophthalmic applications have been analyzed using finite element analysis (FEA) to understand their inherent optical properties. Methods: FEA modeling of thermal theory has been applied to verify that excimer laser induced collagen contraction creates corneal surface irregularities and central islands. A mathematical model which indicates the viability of the theory was developed. The modeling results were compared to post ablation changes in eyes utilizing an excimer (ArF 193 nm), as well as non-ablative thermal heating in eyes with a CO₂ laser. Addition modeling was performed on an Intraocular lens prototype measuring of actuation force, lens power, interface contour, optical transfer function, and visual Strehl ratio. Prototype verified mathematical models were utilized to optimize optical and mechanical design parameters to maximize the image quality and minimize the required force. Results: The predictive model shows significant irregular central buckling formation and irregular folding. The amount of collagen contraction necessary to cause significant surface changes is very small (0.3%). Uniform scanning excimer laser ablation to corneal stroma produces a significant central steepening and peripheral flattening in the central 3mm diameter. Isolated thermal load from uniform CO₂ laser irradiation without ablation also produces central corneal steepening and paracentral flattening in the central 3mm diameter. The iterative mathematical modeling based upon the intraocular lens prototype yielded maximized optical and mechanical performance through varied input mechanical and optical parameters to produce a maximized visual Strehl ratio and a minimized force requirement. Conclusions: The thermal load created by laser irradiation creates a characteristic spectrum of morphologic changes on the porcine corneal stromal surface which correlates to the temperature rise and is not seen inorganic, isotropic material. The highly similar surface changes seen with both lasers are likely indicative of temperature induced transverse collagen fibril contraction and stress re-distribution. Refractive procedures which produce significant thermal load should be cognizant of these morphological changes. The optimized intraocular lens operates within the physiologic constraints of the human eye including the force available for full accommodative amplitude using the eye’s natural focusing feedback, while maintaining image quality in the space available. Optimized optical and mechanical performance parameters were delineated as those which minimize both asphericity and actuation pressure. The methodology combines a multidisciplinary basic science approach from biomechanics, optical science, and ophthalmology to optimize an intraocular lens design suitable for preliminary trials.

Abstract:
AbstractAccurate IOL power calculation in eyes undergoing simultaneous cataract surgery and corneal transplantation is not possible. Most difficulties arise as a consequence of the unpredictable changes in the anterior and posterior corneal curvature and in their ratio. The keratometry values should ideally be taken from individual case series done with a similar surgical technique (similar corneal graft type; surgical and suturing technique; donor-host cornea size disparity) and always aiming for a mild residual myopia. In endothelial transplants, a myopic refraction of at least -0.75 D should be targeted, due to the expected postoperative hyperopic shift.Residual refractive errors can be well managed by means of glasses/contact lenses or laser refractive surgery (such as PRK + Mitomycin C or LASIK) and in extreme cases, by means of IOL exchange or piggyback IOL implantation using the refractive vergence formula or raytracing.

Abstract:
Small-incision lenticule extraction (SMILE) is becoming the procedure of choice in treating myopia and myopic astigmatism. With great comparability in terms of visual outcome with the femtosecond laser-assisted in situ keratomileusis (FsLASIK) procedure, the method is characterized by better patient satisfaction and less postoperative dry eye induction. Moreover, it has the advantages of better eye surface stability and biomechanical strength compared to FS-LASIK. The method is now globally accepted among refractive surgeons. Patients suitable for the procedure must meet criteria for keratorefractive procedures generally. Our current clinical experience suggests that the lenticule extraction procedure delivers promising refractive results in terms of predictability, efficacy, and safety.

Abstract:
Disturbances of the stromal microstructure occurring in refractive surgical procedures may create unexpected and undesired changes to the vision quality of the eye. Examples of common procedures which can profoundly alter the integrity of the stroma include laser ablation techniques such as Laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) for treating myopia, hyperopia and astigmatism, scleral incisions for lens extraction in cataract surgery and conducting keratoplasty (CK) for the treatment of hyperopia and presbyopia. The stroma is the primary load-carrying layer of the cornea and in the normal eye it is in a state of tension resulting from the intraocular pressure (IOP). When a surgical procedure disrupts the stromal tissue, the stresses in the tissue will be redistributed inducing what may be called the biomechanical response of the tissue to the surgical procedure. In the case of LASIK and CK, for example, surgeons wish to change the optical power of the cornea by reshaping the anterior surface. Biomechanically induced deformations may cause the achieved power to deviate from the planned correction and may also introduce aberrations in the resulting optical path. In contrast, in cataract surgery, surgeons may wish to preserve the original power of the cornea and in this case biomechanical deformations may defeat this objective.

Abstract:
In this paper a computational heat transfer model for prediction of the temperature distribution within the human eye during laser surgery is presented. The heat transfer within a tissue is described by the classic Pennes bioheat transfer equation. The intraocular temperature distribution is calculated using finite-difference method. Two types of computational domain have been considered: (i) rectangular parallelepiped and (ii) cylindrical. The eye is modeled as a composite layered structure consisting of four different ocular tissues, namely, cornea, aqueous, lens and vitreous. It is assumed that the eye is symmetrical about the pupillary axis. The absorption probability of ocular tissue is modulated based on the Lambert-Beer’s law to reproduce the exponential attenuation of the laser light with depth within a biomaterial. The heat flow is modeled as transient and three-dimensional for rectangular parallelepiped geometry and two-dimensional (axi-symmetric) for the cylindrical geometry. The results indicate that for the insulation condition imposed on the periphery of the eye the model based on rectangular parallelepiped geometry of the eye at no laser power and at the initial temperature of 25°C predicts temperature closer to in-vitro experimental measurements reported in literature whereas the model based on cylindrical geometry predicts higher temperature. The opposite is true (that is, lower temperature is predicted by the model based on cylindrical geometry) for high laser heat flux (2000 W/m2) and higher initial temperature (37°C). This study also presents changes in eye temperature subjected to intermittent laser source used in laser surgery techniques such as PRK and LASIK. A comparison of the results based on three different boundary conditions such as convection (hb = 10 W/m2K), constant temperature (37°C) and insulation on the eye periphery reveals that the model based on insulation condition predicts results closer to that of in-vitro experiment at no laser power and initial temperature of 25°C whereas at a laser power of 200 W/m2 and at the initial temperature of 37°C insulation boundary condition produces highest temperature followed by that produced by convection and constant temperature conditions. The heat transfer is one-dimensional for the insulated eye periphery whereas multi-dimensional heat flow takes place when the circumferential boundary condition is either convective or isothermal.
