Analyze the ablation profile and predict the spherical component induced by the HOA ablation: 1. Peripheral Ablations: hyperopic-like - induction of myopia 2. Central Ablations : myopic-like induction of hyperopia 33 Topo-guided EX500 Business Use Only Contoura FDA Trial Topography guided profile for primary ablations ( to +6,0 D, Astigmatism up to 6.0 D) FDA Results the best ever for a LASIK treatment Results Overview - 30,9% gain 1 line BSCVA - 10,4 % gain 2 lines BSCVA - 34,4% achieve 20/ ,8 % achieve 20/16-92,6% achieve 20/20 Improvement of symptoms related to Lasik surgery: light sensitivity, night driving, reading ability, glare 2

3 METHODS: Thestudycomprisedpatients aged18to65yearsoldwithmyopiaor myopicastigmatism with a manifest refraction spherical equivalent (MRSE) up to 9.0 diopters (D) and astigmatism of 6.0 D or less. Patients with previous refractive surgery or abnormal topography were excluded. Corneal topographies were obtained using the Allegro Topolyzer, and laser treatment was delivered with the Allegretto Wave Eye-Q excimer laser system. Visual outcomes were evaluated postoperatively at 1day, 1week, and 1, 3, 6, 9, and 12 months. RESULTS: The clinical trial enrolled 212 patients (249 eyes). The T-CAT procedure significantly reduced themrseandcylinder, withstabilityof outcomes evident from 3to12 months after surgery. Compared withthepreoperativecorrected distancevisual acuity(cdva), thepostoperativeuncorrecteddistancevisual acuity (UDVA) improvedby1lineor morein3of eyesandthepostoperative UDVA was at least as good as the preoperative CDVA in 9 of eyes.
