Effect of 3% Diquafosol Sodium on Dry Eye After Femtosecond Laser-Assisted In Situ Keratomileusis and Small Incision Lenticule Extraction Surgery in High-Myopic Eyes.

Purpose: To evaluate the effect of 3% diquafosol sodium eye drop on dry eye after femtosecond laser-assisted in situ keratomileusis (FS-LASIK) and small incision lenticule extraction (SMILE) in high-myopic eyes.

Methods: Eighty-one cases with high myopia (162 eyes) who received FS-LASIK or SMILE were divided into four groups by surgical design and tear film stability: D-FS-LASIK (5s View Article and Find Full Text PDF

Scleral Remolding-Related Gene Expression After Scleral Collagen Cross-Linking Using Ultraviolet A and Riboflavin in Myopic Guinea Pig Model.

Purpose: This study was conducted to evaluate scleral remolding-related gene expression after scleral collagen cross-linking (SCXL) using ultraviolet A (UVA) and riboflavin in lens-induced myopia (LIM) guinea pigs.

Methods: A total of 100 4-week-old pigmented guinea pigs were randomly divided into five groups ( = 20): SCXL + LIM, LIM, SCXL, Sham, and Control. Refraction, anterior chamber depth (ACD), lens thickness (LT), vitreous chamber depth (VCD), and axial length (AL) were measured using streak retinoscope and A-scan ultrasonography.
