• By technical advance in excimer laser platform, pro-grammed ablation zone gains it’s maximal boundary▫ Night vision symptoms such as halo and glare due to
larger scopotic pupil in relation of ablated corneal optical zone being dramatically decreased
• Different manufacturer produce a variety of laser plat-forms, yielding various degree of effective optical zone zone under identical ablation zone and parameters▫ Several papers previously reported a difference between
intended ablation zone and actual effective optical zone regardless of excimer laser platforms

Purpose• In our study
▫Two types of excimer laser : Allegretto-Q 400 Hz & Schwind Amaris being used
▫Comparison after laser refractive surgery in ablation parameters (short & long axis, abla-tion area) between two platforms
▫Investigating preoperative parameters relation to postoperative optical zone

Patients & Methods• Between Feb. to Mar., 2010, 99 patients (198 eyes) with fem-
tosecond laser-assisted LASIK enrolled; retropective study un-dergone▫ Allegretto group: 50 patients (100 eyes)▫ Amaris group : 49 patients (98 eyes) ▫ Identical programmed ablation zone of 6.5 mm applied to all
cases of LASIK regardless of laser platforms • After certain period of time (mean: 19.4 days), topographic
measurements performed▫ Short and long axis of optical zone identified on the topography
were measured▫ Area of optical zone was calculated via short/long axis

• Measurement of optical zone▫ Short and long axis identified as an imaginary line connecting
the boundary margin at least 1 diopter difference from the center
▫ Optical zone being elliptical in all cases, short and long axis can be identified
• Area of Optical zone▫ Area = ∏ × long axis × short axis/4
• Contributing factors▫ Investigate to identify statistical correlation between optical
zone and preoperative sphere, cylinder, sphere-cylinder ratio, keratometric value (K1, K2, mean K)
▫ Statistical comparison by spearman correlation (SPSS 12.0 ver.)

Conclusions• Topographical optical zone
▫Diameters (long and short axis) A statistical significance in Allegretto group In short and long axis, longer diameter observed
▫Calculated area of optical zone Larger in Allegretto group, but not statistically signifi-
cant• No linear correlation between preoperative pa-
rameters and optical zone in both diameters and calculated area regardless of laser platforms

▫ Correlation with area Preoperative sphero-cylindrical ratio affects caculated area of
optical zone• Amaris group
▫ Correlation with diameters (long/short axis) Preoperative spherical/cylindrical amount, spherical equiva-
lent, sphero-cylinder ratio and flatter K-value affecting long axis
▫ Correlation with area Preoperative spherical amount, spherical equivalent and falt-
ter K-value affects caculated area of optical zone

• Under the identical circumstances, different optical zone in diameters and area was ob-served with different types of laser platforms
• To reduce night vision complaints such as glare and halo, preoperative refractive errors, pupil size, corneal thickness and keratometric value must be considered for selecting a proper laser platform and ablation zone
