A prospective comparative study assessing the importance of the intra-operative dynamic rotational tracking-especially in the treatment of astigmatisms in corneal refractive Excimer laser correction-concerning clinical outcomes is presented. The cyclotorsion from upright to supine position was measured using iris image comparison. The Group 1 of patients was additionally treated with cyclorotational control and Group 2 only with X-Y control. Significant differences were observed between the groups regarding the mean postoperative cylinder refraction ( < 0.05). The mean cyclotorsion can be calculated to 3.75° with a standard deviation of 3.1°. The total range of torsion was from -14.9° to +12.6°. Re-treatment rate was 2.2% in Group 1 and 8.2% in Group 2, which is highly significant ( < 0.01). The investigation confirms that the dynamic rotational tracking system used for LASIK results in highly predictable refraction quality with significantly less postoperative re-treatments.
一项评估术中动态旋转跟踪重要性的前瞻性对比研究——特别是在角膜屈光性准分子激光矫正中散光的治疗方面——就临床结果进行了介绍。通过虹膜图像比较测量了从直立位到仰卧位的眼旋转变位。第 1 组患者还接受了眼旋控制治疗,第 2 组仅接受了 X-Y 控制治疗。两组之间的平均术后圆柱镜屈光度存在显著差异(<0.05)。平均眼旋转变位可计算为 3.75°,标准差为 3.1°。总扭转范围为-14.9°至+12.6°。第 1 组的再治疗率为 2.2%,第 2 组为 8.2%,差异具有统计学意义(<0.01)。该研究证实,用于 LASIK 的动态旋转跟踪系统可获得高度可预测的屈光质量,术后再治疗率显著降低。
