Article Synopsis
- This report examined the impact of femtosecond laser energy on corneal haze and keratocyte activation in rabbits undergoing LASIK flap creation.
- Three groups with varying laser energy and spot separation were analyzed, observing flap thickness and interface thickness one week post-surgery.
- Results showed minimal corneal haze across all groups, but higher energy settings resulted in a thicker stromal interface, indicating potential greater stromal damage without significant changes to overall epithelial or stromal thickness.
Purpose: To characterize a rabbit model of Mycobacterium chelonae keratitis after lamellar keratectomy and assess the effectiveness of fluoroquinolone therapy.
Setting: University Laboratory, University of California, Irvine, California, USA.
Methods: Twenty-eight New Zealand white rabbits had unilateral lamellar keratectomy with placement of 2.
