A Three-Phase Contralateral Comparison of Ray-Tracing Guided LASIK Versus Three Other Refractive Surgery Platforms to Correct Myopia or Myopia With Astigmatism
Sponsor: Hoopes Vision
Summary
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.
Official title: 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.

Conditions
Interventions
Ray-Tracing Guided LASIK
A form of LASIK where Ray-Tracing technology is used to create the surgical profile for treating the cornea.
Keratorefractive Lenticule Extraction (KLEx)
A form of corneal refractive surgery utilizing a femtosecond laser to create a lens shaped lenticule of corneal tissue that is removed through a small corneal incision.
WaveFront Optimized LASIK
A form of LASIK where the corneal treatment profile is modified to decrease induced Spherical Aberration.
Topography Guided LASIK
A form of LASIK where a corneal topography of the cornea is used to create the surgical profile for treating the cornea.
