This richly illustrated book is intended as a gold standard for the refractive surgeon. It complements the authors’ successful previous book, Management of Complications in Refractive Surgery, by providing detailed practical information on the management of specific cases. Worldwide leaders in the field document a wide range of challenging cases drawn from their own clinical practice. These cases relate to the planning of refractive laser treatment; intra operative complications when using LASIK (Microkeratome and Femtosecond) and various surface treatments, including PRK, PTK and EpiLASIK; early and late postoperative complications with these treatments and a range of other complications that may arise during or after refractive surgery. This book will be an indispensable aid for the refractive surgeon and will assist in decision making when the surgeon is confronted by a difficult case.

In the next five years, excimer laser surgery will become the number-one growth area for all ophthalmologists. While much has been written about this exploding field, this new book is the first to deal exclusively with phototherapeutic keratectomy (PTK) and the advanced excimer procedures used to treat corneal disease. Excimer Laser Surgery combines guidelines for case selection, step-by-step instruction in PTK techniques, and coverage of operative complications - all supported by precise color photos and more than 30 case studies. The authors emphasize accurate diagnosis as the key to successful surgery and show which types of laser treatment are most appropriate for specific corneal disorders. Special features include: Complete information on all PTK procedures, accompanied by well-chosen operative cases and 128 illustrations A detailed, easy-to-use grid for matching your diagnosis to the right surgical treatment essential for the management of any corneal disorder Special chapter on the use of PTK to treat corneal haze, scarring, and other PRK-related complications. Strategies for reducing refractive changes in the course of PTK surgery A thorough review of recent clinical trials A complete, one-source guide to PTK, this book is essential for physicians who wish to expand their skills and become proficient in the full range of excimer procedures.

The femtosecond laser has emerged as a groundbreaking game-changer in ophthalmic surgery. It was first introduced for corneal refractive surgery in flap creation during LASIK, and subsequently for cataract surgery in 2008. The femtosecond laser cuts deeply on a single plane without collateral damage. Its high precision and safety result in excellent outcomes in the hands of experienced eye surgeons, benefiting virtually everyone. Femtosecond Laser Surgery in Ophthalmology fills an unmet need for a comprehensive, up-to-date resource on growing applications of this state-of-the-art technology. H Burkhard Dick is a world-renowned pioneer who has performed more than 6,000 laser cataract operations. Readers will benefit from his keen insights along with the collective expertise of co-authors Tim Schultz, Ronald D. Gerste, and a cadre of top-notch contributors. Twenty-nine chapters encompass basic physics, refractive and therapeutic cornea treatment, various aspects of laser cataract surgery, and patient selection. Key Features Clinical pearls, outcomes, and complications management in femtosecond laser-assisted in situkeratomileusis surgery Discussion of crucial steps including capsulotomy, lens fragmentation, and corneal incisions The use of the femtosecond laser for presbyopia, pediatric cataract surgery, and ocular comorbidities Extensive videos posted in the Thieme MediaCenter further elucidate techniques More than 300 high quality illustrations and photos add a rich visual dimension This practical book provides in-depth knowledge on the applications of femtosecond laser surgery, enabling cataract and refractive surgeons to incorporate these techniques into daily practice. Ophthalmologists and ophthalmology fellows and residents will discover an invaluable resource for specialized training.

Refractive Eye Surgery, Second Edition is a comprehensive text on the history, evolution, and current status of refractive eye surgery, written entirely by one author, a pioneer in the field. Surgical methods and patient workup are included in separate chapters describing each surgical technique. Among the surgeries described are lamellar, laser, and intraocular refractive surgery, radial keratotomy, surgery for astigmatism, and scleral shortening. The book discusses complications, shortcomings of techniques, and results of surgery. Extensive color illustrations describing the techniques, as well as the optical properties of the cornea and its surface topography make this a valuable surgical atlas. Methods of measuring and analyzing the corneal surface, the derivation of the corneal shape factor, and basic topics such as ametropia, myopia, and astigmatism are also covered.
