About this study

Official title: A Prospective Randomized Comparison of Fellow Eyes Undergoing LASIK or PRK With a Wavefront-guided Excimer Laser Versus a Wavefront-optimized Excimer Laser

Subjects with myopia, hyperopia and astigmatism are being randomized to be treated in one eye with a wavefront-guided excimer laser and their fellow eye treated with a wavefront-optimized excimer laser.

Read the detailed description

Subjects with myopia, hyperopia and astigmatism are being randomized by ocular dominance to be treated with either PRK or LASIK. One eye will be treated with a wavefront-guided excimer laser and the fellow eye will be treated with a wavefront optimized excimer laser.

Being tested

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Changes in best spectacle corrected visual acuity. (time frame: One year). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
