This study aimed at evaluation of the visual and refractive outcomes of wavefront-guided LASIK using the IntraLase femtosecond laser for flap creation. The study was conducted at Tufts University School of Medicine, Boston, Massachusetts, USA and included 117 eyes of 63 patients with myopia with or without astigmatism.

Intraoperative complications 7.8% intraoperative complication rate.

Early postoperative findings 114 eyes, out of 117, were available for postoperative follow-up. At the first postoperative day, the mean LogMAR UCVA was 0.03 ± 0.11 (mean around 20/22). At the first postoperative day, the peripheral host epithelium defects were noticed in 2 eyes (1.7%) and fine microstriae in one eye (0.9%). None of the eyes developed interface inflammation or diffuse lamellar keratitis (DLK). None of the eyes developed remarkable transient light sensitivity syndrome (TLSS).

Late visual and refractive outcomes safety Safety index (postop to preop BCVA) at 1,3, and 6 months = 1.1. Changes in BCVA in terms of Snellen’s lines.

Conclusions In this study, IntraLase was proved to be a safe, efficient, and a highly predictable means of LASIK flap creation. The IntraLase femtosecond laser has significantly reduced the incidence of LASIK flap complications. In addition to that reduction, IntraLase flap complications are much easier to manage than those of the mechanical microkeratome. Accordingly, IntraLase is becoming recognized as a safer method of flap creation. Its excellent efficacy and predictability with more predictable flap parameters make the IntraLase a very helpful tool in refractive surgery.
