PURPOSETo compare haze and refractive outcomes in patients undergoing combined accelerated corneal cross-linking (A-CXL) and selective wavefront-guided transepithelial photorefractive keratectomy (WG-transPRK) without mitomycin C (MMC) versus those undergoing A-CXL.METHODSThis prospective study analyzed 95 eyes (86 patients) with progressive keratoconus from October 2018 to October 2022. The first group underwent CXL combined with corneal or ocular WG-transPRK (CXL+PRK, n = 52), targeting higher order aberrations (HOAs). The second underwent CXL only (n = 43), both following the same accelerated CXL protocol without MMC on the SCHWIND Amaris laser platform (SCHWIND eye-tech-solutions). Baseline and postoperative evaluations (1, 3, 6, and 12 months) included uncorrected (UDVA) and corrected (CDVA) distance visual acuity, manifest refraction, tomography, corneal HOAs, and optical coherence tomography (OCT) scans. A patented machine learning algorithm objectively detected and quantified stromal haze on OCT scans in grayscale units.RESULTSIn both groups, anterior corneal haze reflectivity and subepithelial haze peaked at 3 months postoperatively, then progressively decreased at 6 and 12 months. Haze did not differ between groups at any time point. By 12 months, CDVA increased by 2.5 lines in the CXL+PRK group (P < .001) and by 0.7 lines in the CXL group (P = .10), and maximum keratometry decreased from 51.70 ± 5.10 to 47.90 ± 7.90 diopters (D) (CXL+PRK group) (P < .001) and from 51.20 ± 5.10 to 50.30 ± 4.60 D (CXL group) (P = .004). Corneal HOAs decreased in both groups but more in the CXL+PRK group.CONCLUSIONSCombining CXL with WG-transPRK without MMC does not result in increased haze when compared to A-CXL alone. This combined approach achieves greater improvements in visual, topographic, and aberrometric parameters. [J Refract Surg. 2024;40(9):e583-e594.].

PURPOSETo evaluate the influence of a capsular tension ring (CTR) on the intraocular lens (IOL)-capsule complex after cataract surgery in patients with long axial length.METHODSThis was a prospective study. Patients underwent phacoemulsification and IOL implantation, with or without CTR implantation. Swept-source optical coherence tomography was performed at 1 day, 1 week, 1 month, and 3 months postoperatively to determine the postoperative aqueous depth (PAD), capsular bend index (CBI), and IOL tilt and decentration. Spherical equivalent values were obtained through subjective refraction and autorefraction. Root mean square was adopted to evaluate the indices listed above.RESULTSForty-three patients (56 eyes) were included in the study. Generalized estimating equation analysis of PAD showed a statistical difference between groups (P = .031). The RMS of the change in PAD was smaller in the CTR group than in the non-CTR group during the 3 months after surgery (P = .015). CBI in the CTR group increased more from 1 to 3 months after surgery than that in the non-CTR group (P = .025). The RMS of the change in vertical decentration was smaller in the CTR group than in the non-CTR group during the 3-month follow-up (P = .009).CONCLUSIONSCTR implantation can stabilize the axial position of the IOL within the capsular bag after cataract surgery in patients with long axial length without affecting the refractive stability. The formation of capsular bend may be slightly delayed in the early stage after CTR implantation, but it accelerates from 1 to 3 months after surgery. [J Refract Surg. 2024;40(9):e654-e661.].

PURPOSETo report 12-month visual and refractive outcomes following topography-guided femtosecond laser-assisted laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) for myopia and compound myopic astigmatism correction.METHODSThis prospective, single-center observational study was conducted in an outpatient clinical practice at the Stanford University Byers Eye Institute in Palo Alto, California. Uncorrected (UDVA) and corrected (CDVA) distance visual acuity, 5% and 25% contrast sensitivity CDVA, and manifest refraction following topography-guided femtosecond laser-assisted LASIK were assessed. Refractive measurements were used to perform a vector analysis.RESULTSSixty eyes of 30 patients (mean age: 32.8 ± 7.0 years; range: 23 to 52 years) undergoing topography-guided LASIK for the correction of myopia and compound myopic astigmatism were analyzed. Mean postoperative UDVA was -0.09 ± 0.10 logarithm of the minimum angle of resolution (logMAR) at 12 months. Mean preoperative CDVA was -0.09 ± 0.09 and -0.13 ± 0.08 logMAR at postoperative 12 months. At 12 months, 26.9% of eyes had gained one or more lines of postoperative UDVA compared to baseline CDVA. Mean pre-operative 5% contrast sensitivity CDVA was 0.68 ± 0.07 and 0.64 ± 0.12 logMAR at 12 months (P = .014) following LASIK.CONCLUSIONSTopography-guided LASIK for myopia and myopic astigmatism correction provided excellent visual and refractive outcomes that were predictable, precise, and stable up to 12 months postoperatively.

PURPOSETo compare early visual quality of small incision lenticule extraction (SMILE) versus laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) in terms of low contrast acuity.METHODSA secondary analysis was performed using a harmonized dataset derived from two completed prospective cohort studies on active-duty military service members undergoing either SMILE (n = 37), wavefront-guided (WFG) LASIK (n = 51), or wavefront-optimized (WFO) LASIK (n = 56). Night vision and photopic and mesopic low contrast visual acuity (LCVA) up to 3 months postoperatively were compared between groups.RESULTSCompared to SMILE-treated eyes, WFG LASIK-treated eyes had significantly better night vision and photopic LCVA at 1 month postoperatively (beta = -0.039, P = .016; beta = -0.043, P = .007, respectively). WFO LASIK-treated eyes had significantly better photopic LCVA at 1 month postoperatively (beta = -0.039, P = .012) but had worse mesopic LCVA at 3 months postoperatively (beta = 0.033, P = .015) versus SMILE-treated eyes.CONCLUSIONSSMILE and LASIK, on either a WFG or WFO laser platform, yielded excellent outcomes, but LCVA seemed to recover quicker following LASIK compared to SMILE.

PURPOSETo investigate the impact of back-to-front corneal radius ratio (B/F ratio) and posterior keratometry (PK) on the accuracy of intraocular lens power calculation formulas in eyes after myopic laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK)/photorefractive keratectomy (PRK) surgery.METHODSA retrospective, consecutive case series study included 101 patients (132 eyes) with cataract after myopic LASIK/PRK. Mean prediction error (PE), mean absolute PE (MAE), median absolute error (MedAE), and the percentage of eyes within ±0.25, ±0.50, and ±1.00 diopters (D) of PE were determined.RESULTSThe Barrett True K-TK formula exhibited the lowest MAE (0.59 D) and MedAE (0.48 D) and the highest percentage of eyes within ±0.50 D of PE (54.55%) in total. In eyes with a B/F ratio of 0.70 or less and PK of -5.70 D or greater, the Potvin-Hill formula displayed the lowest MAE (0.46 to 0.67 D).CONCLUSIONSThe Barrett True-TK exhibited the highest prediction accuracy in eyes after myopic LASIK/PRK overall. However, for eyes with a low B/F ratio and flat PK, the Potvin-Hill performed best. [J Refract Surg. 2024;40(9):e635-e644.].

PURPOSETo evaluate the intrasession repeatability of wavefront aberrations obtained by a combined adaptive optics visual simulator and Hartman-Shack aberrometer in pseudophakic eyes with and without previous corneal refractive surgery.METHODSThree consecutive measurements were performed in one eye of each individual. Total ocular aberrations were recorded up to the 5th Zernike order for a 4.5-mm pupil. Repeatability was assessed by calculating the within-subject standard deviation (Sw), the repeatability limit (R), and the intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC). Vector analysis was performed to assess astigmatism variability between scans.RESULTSThe study enrolled 32 normal individuals and 24 individuals with a history of refractive surgery. In normal and eyes that had previous refractive surgery, respectively, the Sw values were 0.155 and 0.176 diopters (D) for sphere and 0.184 and 0.265 D for cylinder. The Sw values for all 3rd order terms ranged from 0.037 to 0.047 µm in normal eyes and 0.044 to 0.063 µm in eyes that had previous refractive surgery. The Sw for primary spherical aberration was 0.020 µm in normal eyes and 0.026 µm in eyes that had previous refractive surgery. ICC values for measurements of astigmatism yielded larger variability (ICC = 0.751 and 0.879). However, both groups demonstrated excellent repeatability (ICC > 0.9) for root mean square higher order aberrations (RMS-HOA) and total RMS values.CONCLUSIONSIn pseudophakic eyes, the adaptive optics Hartmann-Shack device demonstrated acceptable repeatability for measurement of sphere and 3rd and 4th order HOAs with higher variability for astigmatism measurements, especially in eyes with a prior history of corneal refractive surgery.
