Refractive surgery, a brief review
Brief o short review
Keywords:
ocular refraction, myopia, astigmatism, laser in situ keratomileusis, contact lensesAbstract
Refractive surgery is a group of surgical procedures designed to correct the refractive errors of the human eye (myopia, hyperopia, astigmatism and presbyopia [although to date it has not been possible to find a procedure with significant improvement]) by means of measures, which include corneal remodeling (keratomileusis), implantation or replacement of lenses, or the use of excimer lasers to reshape the corneal curvature, in order to provide the patient with a better life quality, trying to minimize the number of complications and decreasing or eliminating the dependence on glasses or contact lenses.
