Stability of the Laser

  • Excimer Laser is a gas based laser. Even after many improvements, it is not as stable as a fiber based femtosecond laser
  • MEL 80 Excimer laser requires about six interventions in the year (including gas bottle changes)
  • VisuMax Femtosecond Laser requires lesser interventions (Routine Check ups)

Corneal Reshaping without ablation (Ablation VS Cutting)

  • An excimer laser performs photoablation
  • The photoablation rate increases linearly with fluence beyond a certain threshold
  • Excimer Laser fluence and photoablation rate gets influenced by various factors –corneal hydration levels, humidity levels, the presence of organic vapors, the depth of ablation
  • This results in a scatter affecting visual outcomes, especially for the treatment of high myopia.
  • Regression may happens in high Myopia.

SMILE ®

  • Uses cutting instead of ablation
  • A binary process instead of linear
  • Much less influence of any external factors
  • Reflected in the tremendous accuracy achieved.
  • Results are especially interesting for high myopia, a group in which excimer lasers don’t fare as well.
  • Lesser incidents of Regression in SMILE

What is PRK? PRK ( photorefractive keratectomy ) is a type of laser vision correction procedure to correct the refractive errors that is… myopia, hypermetropia and astigmatism. PRK was one of the earliest laser eye surgery vision correction procedures and has been performed longer than  LASIK  which has become more popular than PRK now. Similar to LASIK and other types of LVC procedures corneal reshaping is done using an EXCIMER LASER thus allowing the light rays to properly focus on the retina and achieving a clear vision without spectacles. WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN LASIK AND PRK In both the techniques the laser used is same and corneal reshaping is also the same but the difference lies in the FIRST step. In  LASIK  in the first step a flap is made either using a microkeratome or a laser , the thickness of the flap varies between 90 to 130 microns and after the procedure is over this flap is repositioned back. In PRK the flap is not made, instead most superfic...
