A Three-Phase Contralateral Comparison of Ray-Tracing Guided LASIK Versus Three Other Refractive Surgery Platforms to Correct Myopia or Myopia With Astigmatism (NCT07201298)
A Prospective Contralateral Comparison of Ray-Tracing Guided LASIK (WaveLight® Plus LASIK) vs. Small Incision Lenticule Extraction (SMILE® Pro) Using VisuMax® 800, or Wavefront Optimized LASIK or Topography Guided LASIK (Contoura LASIK): A Three-Phase Visual Outcomes Study.
🩺 Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)
This purpose of this study is to compare a new form of LASIK called Ray Tracing Guided LASIK to 3 other forms of corneal refractive surgery: 1. KLEx (KeratoLenticule Extraction) using the Zeiss Visumax 800 Laser, 2. WFO LASIK (Wavefront Optimized LASIK) using the Alcon EX500 Laser, and 3. Topography Guided LASIK (Contoura LASIK) also using the Alcon EX500 Laser.
