NCT ID NCT07087665
First seen Jul 30, 2026 · Last updated Jul 31, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study looks at how satisfied people are with their vision six months after having WaveLight Plus LASIK surgery to correct nearsightedness. It also measures vision sharpness and how the surgery affects daily life. Sixty participants will fill out questionnaires and have their eyes tested to see how well the procedure works.

Inclusion Criteria: * Subject must be able to understand and sign an approved consent form. * Willing and able to comply with scheduled visits and other study procedures. * Age: 18 to 37 * Myopia with or without astigmatism and MRSE within the range indications for wavelight plus (myopia up to -8 D, astigmatism up to -3.0 D, S.E. more than -1.00 and up to -9.00D) * Pre-surgery BCDVA of 20/20 (0.00 logMAR) or better in each eye. * Stable refraction (within ± 0.50 D) as determined by manifest refraction spherical equivalent for a minimum of 12 months prior to surgery. * Refractive target of bilateral emmetropia * Mesopic pupil size ≥ 4.5mm * Less than 0.75 D spherical equivalent difference between Sightmap measured refraction SE and the subjective manifest refraction (MRSE) Exclusion Criteria: * Subjects with a history of previous ocular surgery. * Subjects with topographic evidence of keratoconus or ectasia. * Pre-existing retinal or corneal pathology Subjects with autoimmune diseases. * Subjects who are pregnant or nursing. * Systemic disease likely to affect wound healing, such as diabetes and severe atopy. * Any ocular disease (including uncontrolled dry eye) in which the investigator's opinion would affect the outcome of refractive surgery. * Patients with a calculated residual stromal depth \<250 µm would be excluded from the study.
