Epi-LASIK and LASEK - Dr Jean-Marc Ancel

Epi-LASIK and LASEK are surgical solutions that were invented to reduce the discomfort that the patient may feel after a PRK. Unfortunately, the epithelial flap is often too fragile to fully and effectively cover the Excimer treatment, and the usefulness of these two techniques is therefore diminished. Epi-LASIK and LASEK are thus surgical solutions that are abandoned today, with many surgeons preferring the effectiveness and consistency of PRK.

Description by image

The image shows a schematic representation of a human eye, highlighting the Epi-LASIK technique. In the center, the cornea is visible, with a dark area representing the pupil. An instrument, likely a microkeratome or laser, is used to lift an epithelial flap, which is partially detached from the corneal surface. Light is represented by a blue background, suggesting a surgical environment. The details of the instrument and how it interacts with the cornea are clearly visible, illustrating the crucial step of the procedure where the flap is lifted to allow access to the corneal surface. The elements of the image are stylized, but they effectively convey the idea of the surgical technique.
This illustration represents another step of the Epi-LASIK procedure, where the epithelial flap is being cut. The eye is depicted with a visible cornea, and a surgical instrument is positioned to perform the cut. The flap is shown as being partially detached, revealing the corneal surface underneath. The blue background of the image suggests an operating room setting, and the details of the instrument are clearly defined, allowing for an understanding of the precision required in this step of the surgery. The representation is stylized, but it highlights the essential elements of the technique.
The image presents a simplified diagram of a human eye undergoing laser treatment to correct myopia. The eye is stylized, with a representation of the cornea and pupil. A laser is illustrated, directed towards the corneal surface, indicating the application of laser technology in the context of refractive surgery. The background is a light color, contrasting with the elements of the eye. Although the image is simplified, it clearly illustrates the concept of laser vision correction, highlighting the importance of technology in modern ophthalmological procedures.
