Comparison of clinical results between trans-PRK and femtosecond LASIK for correction of high myopia

Background To compare the clinical outcomes of transepithelial photorefractive keratectomy (TPRK) with femtosecond laser-assisted in situ keratomileusis (FS-LASIK) for correction of high myopia. Methods In this prospective, non-randomised, cohort study, 85 eyes of 46 patients treated with TPRK and 80 eyes of 42 patients treated with FS-LASIK were included. All eyes were highly myopic (spherical equivalent refraction <− 6.00 diopters). Both...
