Surface ablation with 1050-Hz laser and SPT software improves uncorrected distance visual acuity

Patients undergoing surface ablation with a 1050-Hz excimer laser and special software experienced improved uncorrected distance visual acuity at 6 months postop. A retrospective comparative trial of myopic eyes included 139 eyes that underwent ablation with the Amaris 750-Hz excimer laser (Schwind) and 40 eyes that underwent ablation with the Amaris 1050-Hz excimer laser (Schwind) with Smart Pulse Technology (SPT) software. Researchers compared visual acuity outcomes between the two cohorts at 6 months follow-up.
