An essential step of laser in situ keratomileusis surgery is corneal flap creation, Femtosecond (FS)-assisted or mechanical microkeratome. Each type has rare intraoperative and postoperative complication rates. Several recent studies have identified risk factors and guidelines to help manage these complications. Fortunately, studies have shown no loss of best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) after the management of intraoperative and postoperative complications in IntraLase FS and mechanical microkeratome. Refractive surgeons need to be aware of the types of complications that can occur, how to avoid them and how to manage them to ensure the best possible outcomes.
准分子原位角膜磨镶术手术的一个关键步骤是制作角膜瓣,可通过飞秒(FS)辅助或机械微型角膜刀来完成。每种类型的术中及术后并发症发生率都很低。最近的几项研究已经确定了风险因素和指导原则,以帮助处理这些并发症。幸运的是,研究表明,在处理IntraLase FS和机械微型角膜刀的术中及术后并发症后,最佳矫正视力(BCVA)没有下降。屈光手术医生需要了解可能出现的并发症类型、如何避免这些并发症以及如何处理它们,以确保获得尽可能好的手术效果。
