Conditions
Myopia
Interventions
Procedure: single-step Trans-PRK
Behavioral: Placing a bandage contact lens on the cornea, with an 8.4-mm base curve in right eye and one with an 8.8-mm base curve in the left eye.

Registration Number
NCT06393855
Lead Sponsor
Dongyang People's Hospital
Brief Summary

The objective of this study was to investigate the impact of employing bandage contact lenses with a base curve of 8.4 mm versus 8.8 mm on visual recovery following Trans-PRK in patients characterized by steep corneas and high myopia.

Detailed Description

Comparing two kind of bandage lenses in the contralateral eyes of the same individual following Trans-PRK may enable the derivation of reliable conclusions regarding the optimal choice for bandage lenses after Trans-PRK.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Early postoperative uncorrected visual acuity14 days

All visual acuity measurements were performed using a standard logarithmic eye chart

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
postoperative pain score after Trans-PRK2 weeks

Patients will be asked to complete a pain questionnaire at postoperative 0, 2, 12 hours and 1, 4, 7, 14 days. A visual analog scale (VAS) was employed to assess the severity of pain in each eye. The scores are defined as follows: 0 points: no pain; 1-3 points: mild pain, does not affect work and life; 4-6 points: moderate pain, affects work, does not affect life; 7-10 points: severe pain, affects both work and life

re-epithelialization after Trans-PRK1 week

A ophthalmologist will examine the corneal epithelium in all eyes. The assessment of corneal epithelial defects involves measuring the horizontal and vertical diameters using a slit lamp beam with a ruler. The extent of corneal epithelial defects is determined by calculating the area of the ellipse (S=πa×b).

spherical equivalent after Trans-PRK1 week

Optometry is performed using a computerized optometre. The spherical equivalent (SE) was calculated using the formula DS+DC/2, where DS denotes the diopter sphere and DC denotes the diopter cylinder.
