Abstract

Congenital or post-operative high degree astigmatism is currently corrected surgically by corneal arcuate incisions. Due to differences in manual skill in producing corneal incisions with precise depth, width, and length the final refractive results of these surgical techniques may be unpredictable. The aim of the study was to evaluate the feasibility of excimer laser in producing corneal arcuate excisions on rabbit eyes.
