Abstract：
PURPOSE:To evaluate epithelial healing and visual outcome after laser-assisted subepithelial keratectomy (LASEK) without alcohol de-epithelialization and to compare this technique to photorefractive keratectomy (PRK) in myopia. METHODS:In a series of 1953 patients undergoing bilateral myopic PRK, an epithelial flap could be obtained by manual de-epithelialization in the left eye of 56 patients without alcohol exposure. The right eye was treated by PRK and the left by LASEK (i.e., repositioning the viable flap after surface ablation). The two eyes were compared in terms of pain, uncorrected visual acuity (UCVA) in decimals, correction achieved, and haze. The epithelial healing pattern was assessed in the LASEK eyes. RESULTS:The flap remained viable, showing a peripheral junction, in 25 eyes (45%). Pain was higher in the PRK eye in 11/56 patients (20%), higher in the LASEK eye in 23/56 patients (41%), and the same in both eyes in 22/56 patients (39%). UCVA at one week was slightly better in the LASEK eyes (median 0.7 versus 0.6, p = 0.002 with Wilcoxon test), but was the same in PRK and LASEK eyes after 1 month (median 0.9 in both). Median haze at 6 months was 0.5 in the PRK eyes and 0 in the LASEK eyes (Wilcoxon p = 0.007). Median postoperative defocus equivalent at 9 months was 0.5 diopters in both the PRK and the LASEK eyes. CONCLUSIONS:Although our study might have selected patients with loose epithelium, LASEK performed by manual de-epithelialization in the absence of alcohol exposure is not less painful than PRK, even in case of flap survival. Visual recovery speed, as well as haze, is slightly better than in PRK, although the difference is clinically negligible.
