Purpose: To evaluate the safety and efficacy of 80-μm flap femtosecond laser-assisted LASIK and the early clinical and refractive outcomes in the correction of myopia and myopic astigmatism.
Setting: Private practice, outpatient.
Design: Prospective study.
Background: Dry eye disease (DED), a chronic disorder affecting the tear film and lacrimal functional unit, is a widely prevalent condition associated with significant burden and unmet treatment needs. Since specific neural circuits play an important role in maintaining ocular surface health, microelectrical stimulation of these pathways could present a promising new approach to treating DED. This study evaluated the efficacy and safety of nasal electrical stimulation in patients with DED.

Design: Prospective, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled crossover trial.
Methods: Corneal endothelium was analyzed preoperatively and postoperatively in 18 eyes of nine patients who were administered either MMC- or balanced salt solution (BSS)-supplemented PRK at Codet Aris Vision, Tijuana, Mexico.
Purpose: To evaluate the changes in ocular aberrations induced by corneal flap creation.
Design: Prospective interventional nonrandomized clinical trial.
Methods: This study included 15 patients who were scheduled for laser in situ keratomileusis.
Purpose: To compare the early postoperative visual rehabilitation after laser-assisted subepithelial keratectomy (LASEK) and photorefractive keratectomy (PRK) for the correction of myopia.
Setting: CODET Aris Vision Institute, Tijuana, Mexico.
Methods: This prospective study included 50 eyes of 25 patients with myopia who received LASEK in 1 eye and PRK in the contralateral eye.
