Femtosecond-Laser-Assisted Liquid-Interface vs Vacuum-Trephine Keratoplasty: A Comparison of 2 Different Techniques - Retrospective Data Analysis
Despite the characteristics of LI-fs in maintaining corneal curvature, LI-fs and conventional VT generated comparable outcomes in terms of post-OP astigmatism. The results underscore the need for further research with larger cohorts to clarify any potential advantages of the LI-fs in reducing surgically-induced astigmatism.
