Mastering the Techniques of Lasik, Epilasik

Written by an international group of the foremost experts in refractive surgery, this full-color text/atlas is a step-by-step guide to the latest techniques and technology in LASIK, EPILASIK, and LASEK. Major sections focus on preoperative evaluation and machine dynamics; LASIK, EPILASIK, and LASEK surgical techniques; complications and their management; and recent advances and future prospects. More than 400 illustrations demonstrate the procedures. A DVD accompanying the book offers nine video demonstrations of Zyoptix laser; femtosecond laser for corneal flaps; EPILASIK; LASEK; customized LASIK; LASIK surgical technique; presbyopic LASIK for myopia and hyperopia; and LASIK after penetrating keratoplasty.
