  2. AblationAlgorhitmsand Aberrations The quest for the best ablation profile in surface excimer laser surgery may be helped by appropriate aberrometric analysis. We used aberrometry to evaluate two different ablation profiles provided by the Final Fit software for the NIDEK EC 5000 excimer laser.

  3. Materials And Methods • Four patients (mean age 31 ± 3 yrs) • Bilateral LASEK surgery for myopia • Evaluated preoperatively with the Nidek OPD aberrometer • In each patient: • the eye with less aberration and topographical surface irregularities received treatment with the new Optimized Profile Ablation algorithm (OPA, Group A) • the fellow eye was treated with the CATz algorithm (Group B). • Preoperative refraction and visual acuity were comparable within the two Groups: • 0.93 ±0.10 with -3.75 ±0.71 D SE vs • 0.93 ±0.10 with -4.25 ± 1.03

  4. Results • Six months postoperatively: • visual acuity was comparable • Group A, 1.0 with -0.06 ± 0.13 D SE • Group B, 0.98 ± 0.05 with -0.47 ± 0.33 D SE • corneal curvature gradient was comparable • Group A 12.90 ± 8.56 • Group B 12.49 ± 5.03 • Zernikeaberrations were significatively higher with OPA than with CATz.
