“…Femtolasik (FS-LASIK) and LASIK for patients with low to moderate degrees of hyperopia has been shown in numerous studies to be safe, effective and predictable. For those with higher degrees of hyperopia, the results are less predictable, and regression of effect is more common [8,12,13]. When considering hyperopic FS-LASIK or LASIK, cycloplegic refraction and keratometry (K) readings are very important.…”

Several aspects make the treatment of hyperopia and selecting the treatment method challenging. This article has reviewed the main surgical options for hyperopia and factors that must be considered when choosing the right treatment. The modern refractive technology offers excellent options with the optimal choice of procedure being dependent on the level of refractive error, age of the patient and the unique anatomical factors in each case. Surgeons must perform a complete evaluation and risk-benefit assessment of the individual patient to select the best procedure.
