Four LASIK flap thicknesses created with femtosecond laser yielded similar predictability and visual outcomes, according to a study.
"Thin flaps created by femtosecond laser result in similar visual acuity and refractive predictability results," the study authors said. "The flaps are predictable and planar. The mild variation in the architectural outcomes does not seem to affect the clinical results. Improved femtosecond laser platforms may enhance the structural outcomes further."
