Abstract

Based on optical coherence tomography, we compared the character and extent of structural changes occurring postoperatively in the corneal incision created with a femtosecond laser (Victus, Bausch & Lomb, TPV, USA) or a keratome (2.2 mm, Mani, Japan). Our findings showed that a corneal tunnel incision created with a femtosecond laser was more beneficial because it was more accurate and allowed reproducibility of the specified profile and size parameters as well as the choice of the width, length, angle and profile parameters. The corneal tunnel incision created with a femtosecond laser caused minimal structural changes in the corneal incision postoperatively.
