Author(s): Maha H. Amin*, Mahmoud Ahmed Kamal, A. M. Sherif, Mohamed Ahmed Abdel Hafez and Khaled Kotb Abdallah
Objective: To evaluate and compare the changes of Higher Order Aberration (HOAs), visual acuity and refractive outcome
after using wavefront guided Lasik and topography guided Lasik for correction of refractive errors.
Materials and methods: This is a prospective comparative study recruited 60 eyes of 30 patients, where 15 patients underwent
topo-guided Lasik and 15 patients underwent wavefront guided Lasik. All participants underwent Uncorrected Visual Acuity
(UCVA), Best Corrected Visual Acuity (BCVA), refractive outcome and wavefront to assess Root Mean Square (RMS) and
Higher Order Aberration (HOAs) in each group and compare between Wavefront Guided Lasik (WFG) and Topography
Guided Lasik (TG) pre-operative and at 3 months and 6 months post-operative.
Results: Mean patient age was 29.33 ± 5.62.. View More»
