Figure Legend:
(A) The hypocellular primitive LASIK stromal interface scar (blue line) and the area of the interface wound, which was microdissected from the remaining LASIK corneal stroma (black line). P, paracentral scar; C, central scar. Two sections were used per specimen (LASIK and normal control cornea) to collect a sufficient amount of tissue. Overall, the final LCM cap contained tissue captured from 200 contiguous LCM laser spots. Photomicrographs show the areas of the microdissected LASIK scars (B) and normal stromal control tissue (C). (B) The thermal-responsive film is still in place in this LASIK corneal section, which highlights the 100 contiguous LCM laser spots and the underlying silhouette of the extracted tissue. (C) Section of normal control cornea that shows the silhouette of the microdissected tissue and the remaining corneal stromal tissue.
