简介：AIM:Tocomparetheregularityandaccuracyoflaserinsitukeratomileusis(LASIK)flapscreatedbytheZiemerFEMTOLDV'Classic'(Ziemer'Classic')andZiemerFEMTOLDVCrystalLinefemtosecondlaser(ZiemerCrystalLine).METHODS:Fourier-domainopticalcoherencetomography(RTVueOCT)wasusedtomeasurethemorphologyof200LASIKflapsof100consecutivepatientscreatedwiththeZiemerClassic(100flaps)ortheZiemerCrystalLine(100flaps)atoneweekpostoperatively.Flapthicknesswasevaluatedat36specifiedmeasurementpointsoneachflap.Forallprocedureswithbothlasers,thenominalflapthicknesswas110μm.RESULTS:ThemeanflapthicknessoftheZiemerCrystalLinegroup(102.49±2.68μm)wasthinnerthanthatoftheZiemerClassicgroup(107.65±5.09μm)(P<0.01).Averagethicknessofallflapswasuniformwithin4μmatallmeasurementpoints.TheflapsintheZiemerCrystalLinegroupweremoreregularthanthoseintheZiemerClassicgroupwhenmeasuredfromthecentertotheperiphery.Themaximumdeviationfromthenominal110μmof36measurementswas8μmintheZiemerClassicgroup,whileintheZiemerCrystalLinegroupitwas9μm.Withinthe3600measurementsonthe100eyes,differencesgreaterthan20μmwereobserved0.14%intheZiemerClassicgroup,and0.04%intheZiemerCrystalLinegroup.CONCLUSION:TheflapscreatedwiththeZiemerFEMTOLDVCrystalLinefemtosecondlaseraremoreuniformandthinnerthanthosecreatedbytheZiemerFEMTOLDVClassicfemtosecondlaser.

简介：目的：利用频域三维相干光学断层扫描（threedimensionalfrequencydomaincoherentopticaltomography,3D-OCT）评估准分子激光原位角膜磨镶术（laserinsitukeratomileusis,LASIK）对视网膜神经纤维层厚度（retinalnervefibrelayerthickness,RNFLT）的影响。方法：对83例83右眼接受LASIK治疗的受试者分别于术前及术后1d;1wk;1,3mo行3D-OCT检查,测量视乳头上方、下方、鼻侧、颞侧及12个钟点位RNFLT,利用重复测量方差分析及配对t检验对术前及术后的数据统计学处理。结果：术前及术后各时间点行重复测量方差分析显示,视乳头下方、颞侧、5：00～11：00位RNFLT均值无显著差异（P〉0.05）,而视乳头上方、鼻侧、1：00～4：00位、12：00位RNFLT有显著差异（P〈0.05）;进一步对术前及术后各时间点视乳头上方、鼻侧、1：00～4：00位、12：00位RNFLT分别行配对t检验得出,术后1d时视乳头上方、鼻侧及1：00～4：00位、12：00位RNFLT较术前变薄,差异有统计学意义（P〈0.05）,术后1wk;1,3mo时以上各方位RNFLT较术前比较均无统计学差异（P〉0.05）。同时表明RNFLT变薄与屈光度及激光时间成正相关。结论：LASIK术后早期上方及鼻侧RNFLT变薄,但术后1wk恢复至正常水平,LASIK手术对RNFLT无长远影响。
