Using laser treatment to accurately mark astigmatism direction

Is this trial a fit for you?

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

This study focuses on improving corneal refractive surgery outcomes by using phototherapeutic keratectomy to accurately mark the axis of astigmatism. The approach involves utilizing excimer laser technology to precisely cut corneal tissue, addressing the common challenge of astigmatism correction in refractive surgery. By accounting for factors such as head position and eye rotation, the study aims to enhance the accuracy of astigmatism treatment. Participants will undergo a procedure that aims to improve the precision of their astigmatism correction.
