1 Disclosures: Laser K s: Keratectomy to Keratomileusis with a SMILE Glaukos Equinox Alcon Mitch Ibach OD, FAAO Vance Thompson Vision Who Patients Are Listening to Optometrist 36% People who've had surgery 27% Respondents who: - have already scheduled - will definitely have - will probably have - may have surgery Family and friends 11% Specialist / Surgeon 8% Internet 7% Newspapers/magazines 5% Other 7% VisionWatch US Study Who Patients Are Listening to Optometrist 36% Who is a good candidate for refractive surgery? Respondents who: - have already scheduled - will definitely have - will probably have - may have surgery People who've had surgery Family and friends Specialist / Surgeon Internet Newspapers/magazines 11% 8% 7% 5% 27% Anatomical Optical Psychological Other 7% VisionWatch US Study 1

2 Does the technology dictate? Or is it something else? Procedural Selection Current options provide almost unlimited selection Nearly every patient accommodated Selection paramount to success Excimer laser selection: what is important? Refractive status Corneal status Lenticular status 55 old year vs. 25 year old 2

3 2/7/18 PRK Photorefractive Keratectomy PRK Post-op Surface ablation to reshape cornea & treat MRX 60/40 rule (Best vision 3-4 months PO) Approved for myopia (14.00D), hyperopia & astigmatism (6.00D). Comfortable -9.00D Pain, tearing, photophobia 3-4 days BCL inserted Utilizes the excimer laser Antibiotic QID, steroid QID, NSAID 2-3x No flap, epithelium must be removed Scraping, brushing, dilute alcohol, laser BCL: to remove or not to remove? Epithelial Ridge Epithelial Defect Frequent lubrication (comfort) LASIK Sub-epi corneal laser treatment Approved for myopia (11.00D), hyperopia (6.0D) & astigmatism (6.00D) Utilizes Femtosecond laser = Flap Excimer laser = tissue ablation Microkeratome (now rare, thicker, less predictable) Myopic Tx: central flattening Hyperopic Tx: central steepening, laser peripherally 3

4 2/7/18 LASIK 90/10 rule (best vision ~ 1months) Moderate pain/discomfort 3-4 hrs Antibiotic QID, steroid QID, ATS Dryness can limit best VA PO concerns: See pictures Jeng, B., Stewart, J., & McLeod, S.

(2014, June). Wavefront-Guided Versus Wavefront-Optimized Laser in situ Keratomileusis for Patients With Myopia: A Prospective Randomized Contralateral Eye Study. American Journal of Ophthalmology,157(6), Topography Guided Laser Correction Uses corneal data/corneal shape to personalize the ablation profile Can use data from: Placido disc/vario Patient implications: Can reliably measure highly aberrated topographies that wavefront sensors do not measure Goal: normalize the corneal surface rather than customizing the corneal surface Contoura Vision System: Devices Used WaveLight Topolyzer Vario Diagnostic Device WaveLight EX500 Excimer Laser System Laser Notebook + T-CAT Software Objective 1. Anterior-surface normalization 2. Improved visual rehabilitation BENEFITS OF TOPOGRAPHY-GUIDED TREATMENTS WITH CONTOURA VISION 1 Static (WF dependent on accommodation) Accurate & reproducible (many more data points than WF) Independent of pupil size (unlike WF) Able to produce better peripheral data than WFG treatments Derived from the cornea, where most aberrations arise Able to reliably measure highly aberrated corneas that wavefront sensors cannot measure Centered on the corneal apex, rather than the center of the pupil 1. Results from FDA T-CAT-001 clinical study for topography-guided vision correction (with the 400 Hz ALLEGRETTO WAVE Eye-Q Excimer Laser). 5

6 Comparison of WFO vs Topo Guided What about OSD? Does the presence of OSD (specifically corneal involvement) make a difference in procedural selection? Which technologies are most/least dependent on OSD? MOST dependent LEAST dependent Wavefrontguided Topo-guided standard Jain, A., Malhotra, C., Pasari, A., Kumar, P., & Moshirfar, M.

Upper corneal layers remain intact potentially greater biomechanical stability. Small incision (2-4mm) potentially fewer transected nerves, reduced incidence of dry eye.
