Description

Mahipal Sachdev and eight co-authors test the safety and effect of a laser eye surgery called SILK that fixes short sight with or without astigmatism, using the ELITA laser system. The method cuts a thin lens of tissue inside the cornea through a smooth cut. The study came out in twenty twenty-three.

The forward, multi center study treated both eyes of dozens of adults with a wide range of short sight. All eyes were aimed at zero correction. Patients were tracked for six months. Main gauges were sharpness of sight with and without glasses after surgery. Ease of lens removal, forecast exactness, safety, and stability were also scored.
