7 Comparison of Clinical Result of LASIK using between second Laser and keratome for Correction of Myopia Yun Su Choi, M.D., Hee Jin Jung, M.D., Kyung Hun Lee, M.D. Sungmo Eye Hospital, Pusan, Korea Purpose: To compare results between in femtosecond laser and microkeratome LASIK correction of myopia Methods: We retrospectively analyzed the result of 94 eyes of 47 patients in the femtosecond group (F) and 3 eyes of 5 patients in the microkeratome group (M). All patients had undergone LASIK using either a femtosecond laser or a microkeratome for making of flap. Patients were divided into groups I (6D ) and II ( 6D) according to preoperative myopia. Each patient was followed up for over 6 months with measurements of uncorrected visual acuity and manifest refraction at week and, 3, and 6 months after operation. Complications during and after the operation were reviewed retrospectively in two groups 6month after the operation. Results: In groups F-I, F-II, M-I, and M-II, postoperative 6-month uncorrected visual acuity was.98±.8,.96±.9,.97±.3,.98±.9. At the 6-month follow-up, there were no significant differences between the two groups in uncorrected visual acuity and mean spherical equivalent. Corneal opacity was found in 3 eyes in group M and complication related with flap was found eye in group F and 4 eyes in group M. Conclusions: During a 6-month follow up, LASIK using either a femtosecond laser or a microkeratome has an similar effect in uncorrected visual acuity and mean spherical equivalent. Thus LASIK for using femtosecond laser can be used as an alternative procedure to correct myopia. J Korean Ophthalmol Soc 48(8):4-47, 7 Key Words: second Laser, LASIK, keratome 47
