Clinical Trial: Creating LASIK Flaps With the LenSx Femtosecond Laser

Study Status: Completed
Recruit Status: Completed
Study Type: Interventional




Official Title: Prospective, Single-center Clinical Trial of Subjects Scheduled to Undergo LASIK Surgery Requiring an Initial Corneal Flap.

Brief Summary:

This will be a prospective, single-center clinical trial of up to 50 eyes of subjects scheduled to undergo LASIK surgery requiring an initial corneal flap. Subjects will be screened for eligibility.

Subjects will undergo LASIK surgery using the LenSx Laser to create the corneal flap prior to excimer laser treatment.

Subjects will be evaluated intraoperatively to assess the ease of lifting the flaps, the stromal bed quality, and the amount of opaque bubble layer. All patients will be followed with routine vision exams for 3 months postoperatively to evaluate changes in visual acuity, manifest refraction, slit lamp examination, and endothelial cell counts.
