Huang Y, Zhan B, Han T, Zhou X. Effective optical zone following small incision lenticule extraction: a review. Graefes Arch Clin Exp Ophthalmol 2024; 262:1657-1665. [PMID: 37851133 DOI: 10.1007/s00417-023-06263-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/14/2023] [Revised: 08/18/2023] [Accepted: 10/01/2023] [Indexed: 10/19/2023] Open
Abstract
Small incision lenticule extraction (SMILE) is a "flapless" keratorefractive surgery with excellent safety, efficacy, stability, and predictability for myopia correction. A recent global multicenter study also reported good refractive outcomes for hyperopic SMILE. SMILE has shown advantages including improved biomechanical strength, fewer dry eye symptoms, less corneal denervation, and fewer surgery-induced higher-order aberrations over laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK). However, night vision complaints, including glare, halos, and starbursts, could still occur after SMILE. These symptoms have been proven to be closely related to the effective optical zone (EOZ), which is defined as the achieved area of corneal ablation. A larger postoperative EOZ may indicate better visual quality, making EOZ an important safety parameter for keratorefractive surgeries. As SMILE has gained wider application globally, the EOZ following SMILE has also been increasingly studied in the field of refractive surgery. This review provides an update on topics related to the EOZ after SMILE, including its measurement and influencing factors, aiming to benefit the personalization of the surgical algorithm and ultimately improve the visual quality after the SMILE procedure.

Lin F, Liu S, Fu D, Zhang L, Wei R, Li M, Zhou X. Comparison of Visual Outcomes and Higher-order Aberrations Between FS-LASIK and SMI-LIKE for Moderate to High Hyperopia: A 2-Year Result. Cornea 2023; 42:1506-1512. [PMID: 37099670 PMCID: PMC10627543 DOI: 10.1097/ico.0000000000003283] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/01/2022] [Accepted: 02/19/2023] [Indexed: 04/28/2023]
Abstract
PURPOSE The aim of the study was to evaluate and compare the long-term visual outcomes and higher-order aberrations (HOAs) between femtosecond laser-assisted in situ keratomileusis (FS-LASIK) and small-incision lenticule intrastromal keratoplasty (SMI-LIKE) in the correction of moderate to high hyperopia. METHODS In this study, 16 subjects (20 eyes) underwent FS-LASIK and 7 subjects (10 eyes) underwent SMI-LIKE. Uncorrected distance visual acuity (UDVA), corrected distance visual acuity (CDVA), manifest refraction, mean keratometry (Km), anterior asphericity (Q), and HOAs preoperatively and 2 years postoperatively were obtained in both procedures. RESULTS The efficacy indices of the FS-LASIK group and the SMI-LIKE group were 0.85 ± 0.14 and 0.87 ± 0.17, respectively. The safety indices of the FS-LASIK and SMI-LIKE groups were 0.99 ± 0.15 and 1.08 ± 0.24, respectively. No significant difference in safety index or efficacy index was found between the FS-LASIK and SMI-LIKE groups (all P > 0.05). The correlation coefficient of the attempted versus achieved spherical equivalent postoperatively was 0.69 ( P < 0.01) and 0.89 ( P < 0.01) in the FS-LASIK group and SMI-LIKE groups, respectively. The front Km, negative Q value, negative spherical aberrations (SAs), coma, and total HOAs significantly increased postoperatively in the 2 groups ( P < 0.05). The FS-LASIK group had greater changes in Q value and SA postoperatively than the SMI-LIKE group ( P < 0.01). CONCLUSIONS SMI-LIKE had similar safety and efficacy to FS-LASIK in the correction of moderate to high hyperopia. However, SMI-LIKE may equip better visual quality postoperatively for its lower Q value and SA changes than FS-LASIK.
