Abstract: To compare the difference between laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) and laser epithelial keratomileusis (LASEK) for correction of hyperopia. MethodsA randomized prospective study of 65 cases (121 eyes) which had surgeries from January 2005 to May 2007 was conducted. All patients were randomly assigned to receive LASIK or LASEK. The postoperative stimulated symptoms, uncorrected visual acuity (UCVA), refractive power, time of epithelial healing and corneal hazes were observed and analyzed. ResultsMost patients of the LASEK group got more obviously stimulated symptoms such as tears and foreign body sensations than the LASIK group. All the patients got obvious improvements on visual acuity. The spherical powers of patients who were given LASEK were obviously dropped (P>0.05). Compared with the spherical powers on half and one month post-operation, there was a obvious regression in patients of the LASIK group at postoperative 3 and 6 months (P<0.01). There were no syndromes during or after the operations. ConclusionBoth LASEK and LASIK are predictable, safe and available in treating hyperopia. Neither produces serious syndromes.

Key words: Laser in situ keratomileusis, Hyperopia, Laser epithelial keratomileusis, Astigmatism
