Summary

This completed study compared two common surgeries for moderate nearsightedness: FemtoLasik and implantable collamer lens (ICL) implantation. Researchers looked at how stable the vision correction was, contrast sensitivity, and higher-order aberrations in 60 adults aged 21-40. The goal was to see which procedure offers better visual outcomes.
