Flap formation during LASIK can modify the eye's existing natural higher-order aberrations (especially spherical and coma-like aberrations along the axis of the flap's hinge), while visual acuity and refractive error remain unaffected.
Twelve months after implantation, the Flexivue Micro-Lens intracorneal refractive inlay seems to be an effective method for the corneal compensation of presbyopia in emmetropic presbyopes aged between 45 and 60 years old.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
