简要总结
Corneal laser ablative procedures are the most commonly practiced refractive surgery.
Femtosecond laser is an infrared laser (1053nm) that works by producing photodisruption or photoionisation of optically transparent tissue such as Cornea.
LASIK surgery involves creation of corneal flaps done by either Microkeratome(produces meniscus shape flaps) or Femtosecond Laser (produce planar flaps) followed by Excimer Laser Ablation.
Femtosecond laser has gained superiority over microkeratome for creating corneal flaps due to more planar architecture , greater precision in flap diameter and thickness, uniform flap thickness across the flap diameter, customisable by surgeon to programme angulation of flap periphery.
Two FS lasers available in our Centre are Zeiss Visumax MEL-90 and Alcon Wavelight FS200. Zeiss Visumax laser system has a low suction pressure of about 35mmHgwith a suction time of about 30 seconds**.**It Creates corneal flap by acurvation method by maintaining corneal curvature by spiral pattern. Alcon Wavelight FS200 laser system has a high suction pressure (80-100 mmHg) with a longer suction time (35-40 seconds). It creates corneal flap by applanation method by making cornea flat by raster pattern. The difference in suction pressure and suction time during femtosecond laser application for flap creation may also produce anterior and posterior segment changes.
