  A Brand-New Generation of Ablative Solid-State Laser's First Clinical Results
  Author(s): Raf Dewil*
  
  In refractive surgery, solid-state lasers emerged as an alternative to excimer systems at the beginning of the 2000s. Solid-state laser systems were capable of producing excellent clinical outcomes despite some of the limitations imposed by technology at the time. The clinical outcomes of five eyes treated by a new solid-state laser system in three patients are reported in this prospective case series. Prior to surgery, corneal top andtomography, aerometry and confocal microscopy were used to examine the patients. After undergoing a refractive treatment with the solid-state ablation laser and a femtosecond LASIK procedure with the Ziemer LDV Z8, each patient was followed up for up to a year. None of the operated subjects showed any higher-order or spherical aberrations when the aspheric optimized profiles were used. During the follow-up, no BCVA lines were remo.. Read More»
