Brief Summary:
compare the efficacy, safety and predictability of corneal wavefront guided (WFG) and aberration free ablation in single-step transepithelial photorefractive keratectomy (TransPRK) in myopic patients with high pre-existing corneal higher order aberrations (HOAs).
Detailed Description:
Objectives:to compare the efficacy, safety and predictability of corneal wavefront guided (WFG) and aberration free ablation in single-step transepithelial photorefractive keratectomy (TransPRK) in myopic patients with high pre-existing corneal higher order aberrations (HOAs).
Background: Corneal WFG and aberration free treatments have been proposed as methods to achieve better visual, refractive, and optical outcomes.
Methods: prospective case series was conducted in El-Hekma Eye-LASIK center, Menoufia governorate, Egypt during the period from January 2017 to December 2017. TransPRK was performed to eligible myopic patients with or without astigmatism with corneal HOAs ≥ 0.35 µ utilizing either aberration free or corneal WFG patterns provided by ORKCAM software (SCHWIND eye-tech-solutions, Kleinostheim, Germany). Uncorrected distance visual acuity (UDVA), manifest and cycloplegic refractions, best spectacle corrected distance visual acuity (CDVA), thorough slit lamp examination and corneal topography were assessed and repeated six months postoperatively.
