研究目的
To report and describe a new approach for treating a leak in the curved suction contact glass of a VisuMax femtosecond laser during small-incision lenticule extraction (SMILE).
研究成果
The case demonstrates a successful treatment approach for a leak in the curved suction contact glass during SMILE, using the flap mode to create a cap and manually removing the refractive lenticule. This approach avoided flap-related complications and resulted in improved visual acuity for the patient.
研究不足
The report is based on a single case, which may limit the generalizability of the findings. The exact cause of the leak in the suction contact glass was not determined until after the procedure.
