Abstract

This prospective cohort study aims to compare the visual outcomes and patient satisfaction between wavefrontguided and conventional LASIK (Laser-Assisted in Situ Keratomileusis) procedures for correcting myopia. Myopia is a common refractive error, and LASIK surgery is a popular method for its correction. However, the choice between wavefront-guided and conventional LASIK remains a topic of debate. A total of 200 patients with myopia were enrolled in the study and randomly assigned to either the wavefront-guided LASIK group or the conventional LASIK group. Visual acuity, refractive outcomes, contrast sensitivity, and patient satisfaction were evaluated preoperatively and at 1, 3 and 6 months postoperatively. Patient-reported outcomes were assessed using standardized questionnaires. The study findings will provide valuable insights into the efficacy and patient satisfaction associated with both LASIK techniques.
