A novel technique of intrastromal lenticule rotation effectively treats high astigmatism up to 10 D in a minimally invasive manner, according to two specialists.
“Managing high astigmatism (> 5 D) is difficult. The current approaches through arcuate keratotomy or intracorneal ring segments have relatively low predictability and a large variability of outcomes,” Jesper Hjortdal, MD, PhD, said.
At Aarhus University Hospital, Denmark, small incision lenticule extraction has been performed for many years, but the laser is not CE marked for the treatment of mixed astigmatism nor for
