Semi- Automating Laser Vision Correction

Author(s): Diego de Ortueta

The purpose of this study is to show a semi-automated laser vision correction (LVC) with the transepithelial photorefractive keratectomy (TransPRK) surgery technique. Since more surgical steps have been automated over the years, we have standardized the TransPRK technique. We have been using it since 2010. This paper aims to illustrate the processes that are readily applicable to automation. To meet the patient's expectations and ensure that the patient has uncorrected visual acuity at least equal to the preoperative corrected vision with glasses, patient selection is crucial in refractive surgical procedures. One major benefit of automating the surgery is that it can be performed in an analogous way by each surgeon or laser correction centre, so once the standard and results are good, these can be performed by different surgeons.
