1 Dawn of a New Era Modern LASIK Results Christopher L. Blanton, MD April 28, 2018

2 Financial Disclosure Paid consultant: Johnson & Johnson, Inc.- Star S4/iFS IntraLase Medical Monitor Integra LifeSciences, Inc. One Legacy Organ and Tissue Bank

3 LASIK 2018 Today we are providing the highest quality of vision and excellent visual outcomes with the least amount of symptoms/side effects ever Customized femtosecond flaps: Increase flap creation speed Provide advanced customization parameters to tailor the flap to the patient Improve biomechanical flap stability Customized wavefront-guided treatments: Increase the number of patients to consistently achieve 20/20 or BETTER Help reduce or maintain HOA Reduce enhancement rates

4 Clinical Benefits With IntraLase Reduction of higher-order aberrations 1 Increased quality of vision 2 Reduced enhancement rates 3 Faster recovery in corneal sensitivity 4 may lead to an earlier reduction of postop dry eye symptoms Reduction in most serious, sight-threatening flap complications 5 Consistently creates precise, accurate corneal flaps 1,5 1. Tran DB, Sarayba MA, Bor Z, et al. Randomized prospective clinical study comparing induced aberrations with IntraLase and Hansatome flap creation in fellow eyes: potential impact on wavefront-guided laser in situ keratomileusis.

5 Flap Creation: Advancements in Customization 5 th Generation Femtosecond Technology: Higher repetition rate Faster flap creation Customized flap shapes (elliptical) Expanded bevel-in side cut angles to 150 Video microscope

6 Summary of Available Excimer Treatment Options Conventional: Early lasers did not consider the importance of asphericity in the ablation contour Led to the induction of high amounts of spherical aberration Less precise, higher enhancement rates Optimized approach: the treatment is based primarily on sphere and cylinder (lower-order aberrations) along with a general population average correction for spherical aberration Wavefront -Guided: Goal to reduce ALL LOAs and HOAs based on each individual s refractive requirements Treatment based on wavefront aberrations Topo-Guided: Utilizes input from topography measurement Most commonly used in eyes with irregular astigmatism or corneal pathology

7 How Common are Higher Order Aberrations? Capt. Scott Barnes, MD US ARMY Captured wavefront on 92 soldiers. 54 (57%) had HOA RMS of 0.3 µm or greater Jack T. Holladay, MD, MSEE, FACS 73% of his patients have greater than 0.21 µm HOA (n=211) Perry S. Binder, MS, MD, San Diego, CA Preoperatively, 46.8% of eyes (1,670/3,568) had HOA RMS of 0.3 µm or greater.

8 WFG and WFO: Outcomes in Myopic Patients Study: Perry Binder, MD Purpose: Compare post-lasik outcomes with wavefront-guided (VISX IR) and wavefront-optimized (Wavelight Allegretto) platforms. Methods: Retrospective analysis of a clinical database of consecutive myopic eyes that underwent LASIK performed by a single surgeon. 72 eyes underwent VISX wavefront-guided (WFG; Fourier/IR) LASIK and 323 eyes underwent wavefront-optimized (WFO) LASIK (Allegretto 200). Binder, Perry. Poster: PreOperative Distribution of HOAs in Patients Undergoing LASIK. ARVO, Ft. Lauderdale, FL.

9 Greater PO HOA RMS with WFO than WFG 1 WFG WFO * 0 Mean RMS (um) 0 0 Pre-op Post-op Post-op RMS was significantly higher in WFO than WFG eyes (P<.001), with WFO eyes experiencing a significant increase in RMS (P<.001).

11 Principles of Photodisruption Excimer ablates upon contact with very short wavelength of ultraviolet light INTRALASE uses much longer wavelength to achieve photodisruption Photoablation: Excimer Photodisruption: Femtosecond Precise Surface Effects Precise Sub-Surface Effects

12 Excimer Laser Photoablation

13 Principles of Photodisruption Laser Induced Optical Breakdown (LIOB) Sharply focused laser pulse of an ultra-short duration generates a plasma Plasma expands and displaces surrounding tissue Cavitation bubble formed

14 Photodisruption A pulse of laser energy is focused to a precise location inside the cornea 1 Micron A microplasma is created, vaporizing approximately 1 micron of corneal tissue

15 Photodisruption The bi-products of photodisruption (CO2 & water) are absorbed by the mechanism of the endothelial pump, leaving a resection plane in the cornea

16 Photodisruption Pulses can be stacked vertically or at an angle

71 Programming Femto Arcuate Incisions

72 Programming Arcuate Incisions The following parameters must be defined to perform Arcuate Incisions Posterior Depth (in microns) Diameter (in millimeters) Energy (in microjoules) Cut Position (1 & 2) Cut Angle (1 & 2) Side Cut Angle (in degrees) Depth in Glass (Penetrating vs Intrastroma l) The following slides will describe in detail how to program these parameters

73 Programming Arcuate Incisions Posterior Depth Example Thinnest pachymetry over area where Arcuate Incision to be placed is 650 microns Subtract 125 microns from thinnest pachymetry over area where Arcuate Incision to be placed: = 525 microns Posterior Depth= 525 microns

74 Programming Arcuate Incisions Diameter - Represents twice the distance from the center of the cross hairs to the incision The programmable diameter can not exceed 9.5mm with a Side Cut Angle of 90 degrees or less The diameter is referenced from the anterior surface and an inverted angle will extend the posterior cut beyond 9.5mm Diameter

75 Programming Arcuate Incisions Cut Position 2 270º 0º 180º 90º Cut Position 1 Cut Position - Placement of the arcuate incision is done by assigning a position (0º to 359º) Cut position represents the location of the arc s midpoint (using a complete circle as a reference)

76 Programming Arcuate Incisions Cut Angle (expressed in degrees) Cut Angle - Expressed in degrees and represents the length of the arcuate incision Cut Angles cannot overlap

77 Programming Arcuate Incisions Side Cut Angle - The angle between the incision and the applanated corneal surface Range is 30 to 150 degrees Red 90 degrees Blue 30 degrees Yellow 150 degrees
