Ophthalmic Health Center, Department of Ophthalmology, Tel-Aviv Sourasky Medical Center, Sackler Faculty of Medicine, Tel-Aviv University, Tel-Aviv, Israel.
Purpose: To compare corneal flap thickness created in laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) in primary (right) and fellow (left) eyes (same blade for both eyes) using three microkeratomes.
Methods: The corneal thickness of 132 eyes (66 patients) was measured preoperatively and intraoperatively after flap creation. Corneal flap thickness was calculated by subtracting stromal bed thickness from total corneal thickness.

Predictability of corneal flap thickness in laser in situ keratomileusis using three different microkeratomes.

December 2002
Ophthalmic Health Center, Tel Aviv, Israel.
Purpose: To compare the accuracy and consistency of corneal flap thickness in the right and left eye created by three different widely used microkeratomes during consecutive laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK).
Methods: Corneal thickness of 132 eyes of 66 patients was measured preoperatively and intraoperatively. Corneal flap thickness was calculated by subtracting the corneal stromal thickness from the total corneal thickness.
Laser in situ keratomileusis to correct hyperopic shift after radial keratotomy.

February 2001
Ophthalmic Health Center (Lipshitz, Shemesh), Israel.
Purpose: To assess the safety and efficacy of excimer laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) to correct hyperopic shift following radial keratotomy (RK).
Setting: Ophthalmic Health Center, Tel Aviv, Israel.
Methods: The study comprised 15 eyes of 12 patients who had uneventful RK and subsequently developed a hyperopic shift.
Comparison of photorefractive keratectomy on one eye and laser in situ keratomileusis on the other eye of the same patient.

Ophthalmic Health Center, Ramat-Aviv, Tel-Aviv, Israel.
Objective: The aim of this study was to compare the results of excimer laser photorefractive keratectomy (PRK) and laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) in the same patient.
Methods: All consecutive patients who underwent PRK in one eye and LASIK in the second eye using the same excimer laser (Nidek EC-5000) and had at least 12 months of follow-up were included in this retrospective study (N = 23). Uncorrected and spectacle-corrected visual acuity, final spherical equivalent refraction, and degree of haze were compared.
