To compare forward shift of posterior corneal surface and higher-order aberration (HOA) changes after LASIK, LASEK, and wavefront-guided LASEK surgery in moderate myopia
One hundred eighty four eyes undergoing LASIK, LASEK and wavefront-guided LASEK with VISX STAR S4 were included in this study. The posterior corneal elevation was measured with Orbscan before, 2 and 4 months after surgery. Changes of the elevation were assessed using the difference map generated from preoperative and postoperative elevation maps. The values of higher-order aberrations were evaluated preoperatively and 2 months postoperatively with Wavefront aberrometer.
The posterior corneal surface displayed forward shift of 27.2+/-11.45 micrometer, 24.3+/-9.76 micrometer in LASIK group, 23.4+/-10.5 micrometer, 23.6+/10.55 micrometer in LASEK group, 24.0+/-14.95 micrometer, 28.4+/-14.72 micrometer in wavefront-guided LASEK group at 2 months and 4 months, respectively. There were no statistically significant differences among those three groups, and between 2 and 4 months. The root mean score (RMS) of HOA was increased after LASIK and LASEK (p=0.000, p=0.000, respectively). The mean change of HOA-RMS was significantly smaller in wavefront-guided LASEK than LASIK or LASEK (p=0.000, p=0.000, respectively, Bonferroni-corrected).
The changes of posterior corneal surface forward shift showed no difference among LASIK, LASEK and wavefront-guided LASEK in moderate myopia. HOAs were significantly increased after LASIK and LASEK. The changes of HOAs were significant smaller in wavefront-guided LASEK than LASIK or LASEK.
比较准分子原位角膜磨镶术(LASIK)、准分子上皮下角膜磨镶术(LASEK)和波前像差引导的LASEK手术治疗中度近视后角膜后表面的前向移位及高阶像差(HOA)的变化
本研究纳入了184例行LASIK、LASEK及使用VISX STAR S4的波前像差引导LASEK手术的眼。术前、术后2个月及4个月使用Orbscan测量角膜后表面高度。使用术前和术后高度图生成的差异图评估高度变化。术前及术后2个月使用波前像差仪评估高阶像差的值。
LASIK组术后2个月和4个月角膜后表面前向移位分别为27.2±11.45微米、24.3±9.76微米;LASEK组分别为23.4±10.5微米、23.6±10.55微米;波前像差引导的LASEK组分别为24.0±14.95微米、28.4±14.72微米。三组之间以及术后2个月和4个月之间差异均无统计学意义。LASIK和LASEK术后HOA的均方根值(RMS)增加(p值分别为0.000、0.000)。波前像差引导的LASEK术后HOA-RMS的平均变化显著小于LASIK或LASEK(经Bonferroni校正后,p值分别为0.000、0.000)。
中度近视患者中,LASIK、LASEK和波前像差引导的LASEK术后角膜后表面前向移位的变化无差异。LASIK和LASEK术后HOA显著增加。波前像差引导的LASEK术后HOA的变化显著小于LASIK或LASEK。
