Stromal keratophakia was first performed by José Ignacio Barraquer in the 1960s. The
refractive lamellar keratoplasty technique was intensely pursued in the 1980s as a method …

AIM To review recent innovations, challenges, and applications of small incision lenticule
extraction (SMILE) extracted lenticule for treating ocular disorders. METHODS A literature …

The cornea is the major contributor to the refractive power of the eye, and corneal diseases
are a leading cause of reversible blindness. The main treatment for advanced corneal …

PURPOSE: To investigate 2-year visual outcomes, stability, and predictability after allogenic
lenticule implantation in a 100-µm pocket for moderate to high hyperopia correction …

Patients with high hyperopia are generally confined to either spectacle wear or contact
lenses as a primary means of refractive correction. For this patient population, the surgical …

Purpose To quantitatively evaluate outcomes after small incision lenticule extraction (SMILE)
combined with allogeneic intrastromal lenticule inlay for hyperopia with astigmatism …

Small incision lenticule extraction (SMILE) has become one of the mainstream refractive
surgeries in recent years, with satisfactory efficacy, safety, and predictability. SMILE-derived …

Substantial evidence has demonstrated the application of fresh and decellularized human
corneal lenticules from increasing myopic surgeries. Further preservation of decellularized …

Femtosecond laser-assisted keratoplasty has been proposed as a treatment option for
corneal transplantation. In this study, we investigated and compared the outcomes of Ziemer …

Hyperopia is a common form of refractive error in the United States. Many refractive errors
can be treated with refractive surgery methods such as laser in-situ keratomileusis and …
