A novel bilateral LASIK technique based on modulation of spherical aberration showed efficacy as a treatment for presbyopic hyperopia in a study.
At the Institute of Laser Vision Noémie de Rothschild in Paris, 28 patients aged at least 43 years with hyperopic presbyopia underwent bilateral LASIK using the Custom-Q ablation program of the WaveLight Refractive Suite platform (Alcon), designed to reshape the corneal profile asphericity of the two eyes using opposed aspherical photoablation profiles. Before surgery, soft contact lenses were fitted to assess monovision tolerance and monocular vs.
