Unlabelled:
Construction of aberrometer unit gives us a possibility to clinically measure the optical defects of the eye beyond sphere and cylinder, quickly and efficiently. This technology of measurement quantify ocular aberrations, to design ideal refractive corrections.
Purpose:
The aim of this study was to evaluate ocular aberrations after PRK and LASIK procedures.
Material And Methods:
We measured the high order aberrations in 114 treated eyes by WASCA System.
Results:
We noticed that all excimer procedures increased ocular aberrations. The higher aberrations appears after LASIK. The main assignment of excimer laser surgery is planning this type of ablation profile which does not increase aberrations.
