Perspectives on Vision: A Detailed Look at the Phorcides Analytic Software and the Benefits it Brings to Topography- Guided LASIK

Topography-guided laser-assisted in-situ keratomileusis (LASIK) considers the shape of the anterior corneal surface and uses corneal curvature data from preoperative corneal topography measures. These treatment profiles help reduce higher order aberrations (including spherical aberration) by compensating for cosine effect and by normalizing the overall surface of the cornea. This is done by flattening elevations and relatively steepening flatter areas by ablating around them. 

 

Mark Lobanoff, MD, Stephen Wexler, MD and Doyle Stulting, MD discuss Phorcides technology and the clinical benefits it brings to topography-guided LASIK.
