To determine effect of surgeon experience on outcomes of LASIK.
Retrospective case series of myopic femtosecond LASIK performed by residents and fellows compared to an attending surgeon, with mean follow-up of 6.6 months.
Seventy-two eyes (38 patients) had LASIK performed by a trainee and 157 eyes (83 patients) by an attending surgeon. There were no statistically significant preoperative differences. The attending surgeon had lower mean flap thickness (P = .0001), but ablation depth and residual stromal bed were similar. Postoperative uncorrected distance visual acuity was significantly better in the experienced surgeon group on the first postoperative day (P = .0203). Postoperative findings of microstriae (P < .0001) and interface debris (P = .0034) were more common with trainee-performed LASIK.
Visual outcomes are excellent after femtosecond LASIK performed by trainees and experienced surgeons. Early postoperative complications are more common in trainee-performed LASIK, but are not visually significant. Resident and fellow LASIK surgical training with a comprehensive refractive curriculum under the guidance of an experienced surgeon is safe and appropriate.
确定外科医生经验对准分子激光原位角膜磨镶术(LASIK)手术效果的影响。
对住院医师和专科住院医生与主治医生实施的近视飞秒LASIK手术进行回顾性病例系列研究,平均随访6.6个月。
72只眼(38例患者)接受了住院医生实施的LASIK手术,157只眼(83例患者)接受了主治医生实施的手术。术前无统计学显著差异。主治医生的平均角膜瓣厚度较低(P = 0.0001),但消融深度和残余基质床相似。术后第1天,经验丰富的医生组术后未矫正远视力明显更好(P = 0.0203)。住院医生实施的LASIK手术中,术后微条纹(P < 0.0001)和界面碎屑(P = 0.0034)的发生率更高。
住院医生和经验丰富的医生实施飞秒LASIK术后视力结果良好。住院医生实施的LASIK术后早期并发症更常见,但对视力影响不大。在经验丰富的医生指导下,通过全面的屈光课程对住院医生和专科住院医生进行LASIK手术培训是安全且合适的。
