PURPOSE: To describe a method for centering ablation profiles considering pupil center
and corneal vertex information simultaneously. METHODS: Novel ablation profiles were …

The purpose of this work was to evaluate the extent that minimisation of the thermal load of
the ablation in high-speed laser corneal refractive surgery is possible. To do this, thermal …

PURPOSE: To evaluate the changes in visual performance and ocular optical quality after
hyperopic laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) using the Esiris excimer laser (Schwind eye …

A new experimental model based on plastic (Filofocon A) artificial eyes was used to study
the ablation profiles and the outcomes of three state-of-the-art refractive surgery excimer …

The optical surfaces of the eye are often described in terms of their radius and asphericity.
The variations caused by experimental noise in repeated measurements of radius and …

Purpose To evaluate visual outcomes in moderately myopic eyes with flat and steep corneas
(preoperatively) that have been treated with laser-assisted in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) …

Purpose A retrospective comparison of refractive outcomes of a new, aspherically optimized
profile with an enhanced energy correction feature (Triple-A) and the conventionally used …

Purpose. To evaluate to which extent individual Zernike terms can be corrected. Methods.
Ablation time and fidelity was analysed using different fluence levels (range 90–2000 …

ABSTRACT PURPOSE: To investigate the relationship between contrast sensitivity (CS),
Zernike wavefront aberrations (WFA), and asphericity after laser in situ keratomileusis …

Purpose To explain the origin of changes in corneal asphericity and induced spherical
aberration after laser refractive surgery. Methods A rigorous model, CASIM (corneal ablation …
