In this presentation from AAO 2016, Vance M. Thompson, MD, discusses this exciting procedure, using a femtosecond laser to remove a lenticule and get LASIK-type results. One of the main goals is to have greater biomechanical stability and reduce dry eye, and the procedure is growing rapidly worldwide. The presentation is followed by an interactive panel discussion regarding refractive surgery.
This presentation was co-sponsored by the American Society of Cataract and Refractive Surgery (ASCRS).
