Refractive Surgery Guide to Assessment and Management (2004) Unknown Author

Description

This guide covers the exponential growth of refractive surgery, including the rapid increase in excimer laser procedures following FDA approval for the correction of myopia, astigmatism, and hyperopia. It discusses improved techniques, better equipment, and the diverse perspectives of practitioners, both optometrists and ophthalmologists, on whether the procedure is a necessary alternative or purely cosmetic surgery.
