SETTING: Vissum Instituto Oftalmológico de Alicante, Miguel Hérnandez University, Spain. DESIGN: Prospective comparative nonrandomized consecutive case series. METHODS: Consecutive cataract had implantation of low-add-power IOL (Lentis-Mplus LS-312 MF15) (multifocal group) or (Crystalens HD)...
Purpose To evaluate in keratoconus eyes the intrasubject repeatability of anterior and posterior corneal curvature other segment anatomic measurements obtained with a new topography system combining Scheimpflug-photography Placido-disk technology. Setting Vissum Corporation, Alicante, Spain. Design Evaluation Methods All had comprehensive ophthalmologic examination including analysis Sirius system. Three consecutive were to assess following parameters: shape factor, white-to-white (WTW)...
ABSTRACT PURPOSE: To assess the effectiveness of optical and ultrasonic pachymetry when examining corneas patients before after laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK). METHODS: We conducted a prospective study 25 (50 eyes) who had LASIK for myopia or myopic astigmatism (mean spherical equivalent refraction -4.80 ± 3.60 D; range -1.75 to -12.00 D). Corneal thickness was measured using 1) conventional (20 MHz probe) central cornea, 2) ASL confocal microscopy (CMTF analysis), 3) Orbscan II...
We report a severe anaphylactic reaction that occurred about 5 minutes after 1.0 mg of cefuroxime was injected into the anterior chamber routine phacoemulsification and intraocular lens implantation. The patient known to be allergic penicillin. Immediate action taken, recovered well. presence staff trained in resuscitation essential this case raises questions trend perform topical anesthesia cataract surgery without an anesthesiologist operating room.
ABSTRACT PURPOSE: To analyze the quality of LASIK flaps created using a femtosecond laser or mechanical microkeratome. METHODS: A prospective study consecutive bilateral (100 patients) with 15 kHz (IntraLase) microkeratome (Moria M2) was performed. Outcome measures included visual and refractive outcomes, flap dimensions, intraoperative complications. The first ten patients (20 eyes) were examined confocal microscopy 1 3 months following surgery. RESULTS: No significant differences noted in...
