Mel 90 excimer laser for myopic LASIK yields predictable outcomes
An updated excimer laser with a faster pulse rate and new ablation profile delivered predictable refractive outcomes in myopic LASIK, according to a study.The retrospective study included 286 eyes of 147 patients who underwent myopic LASIK with the Mel 90 excimer laser and VisuMax femtosecond laser (both Carl Zeiss Meditec). The Mel 90 laser, an upgrade of the Mel 80 platform, can be operated with a pulse rate of 250 Hz or 500 Hz. It features the Triple-A ablation profile for low and high myopic corrections.
