Influenceofmicrokeratomeand femtosecond laser on vision and corneal flap thickness used in corneal flap making / 国际眼科杂志(Guoji Yanke Zazhi)

ABSTRACT

AIM: To study and compare the influence situation of corneal flap made by microkeratome and femtosecond laser for the vision and corneal flap thickness in patients. METHODS:Totally 120 patients(240 eyes) with myopic refractive surgery in our hospital from June 2014 to May 2015 were randomly divided into Group A (microkeratome group) with 60 cases (120 eyes) and Group B (femtosecond laser group) with 60 cases (120 eyes). Then the vision situation and corneal flap thickness indexes of two groups at different time after the treatment were compared. RESULTS:The vision situation between the two groups at different time after the treatment all had no significant differences (all P>0.05),while the corneal flap thickness related indexes of Group B at different time after the treatment were all better than those of Group A (all P<0 05). The evaluation indexes of two groups after the treatment all had significant differences (all P<0.05). CONCLUSION: The indexes of corneal flap made by femtosecond laser are better than those of microkeratome,and the influence of two methods for the vision is no obvious.
