Lasers are a kind of light that is different than light from the sun ,
There are also kinds of energy which are invisible to people's eyes
Light is energy people can see
infrared - this energy can't be seen but is able to be felt as heat
radio - people can't see this energy, but
radio's can turn it into soundmicrowave - this energy can be used to cook
food
But there are photons which have a wavelength that is just right for the
human eye to see.

REFRACTIVE ERRORS
70% of the eye's focusing power comes from the
cornea and 30% from the lens.
In most cases, refractive surgery affects the shape of your cornea to redirect how light is
focused onto the retina. Popular procedures include LASIK, LASEK, PRK and CK.For myopia, your corneal tissue is removed centrally in a lenticular (lens-like) pattern, thereby
flattening the central cornea and reducing the eye’s focusing power to correct your refractive error
For hyperopia, your corneal tissue is removed around the edges, thereby steepening the central cornea and increasing the eye’s focusing power.
For astigmatism, your corneal tissue removed in a precise elliptical pattern which steepens the cornea where it
is too flat and flattens the cornea where it is too steep, thereby accurately correcting your refractive error.
The first in the line of laser procedures for vision correction was
Photorefractive Keratectomy or PRK.
PRK is performed with an excimer laser, which uses a cool ultraviolet light beam to ablate tiny bits of corneal surface tissue.
sculpt an area of 5 to 9 millimeters in diameter on the
surface of the eye.
PRK is still the laser vision correction treatment of choice for many eye surgeons for patients with larger pupils and thin corneas. PRK can effectively
improve myopia, hyperopia, and astigmatism.
First invented in the early 1980�s, PRK received FDA approval in 1995

INTRALASIK • The Intralasik technique is very similar to Lasik but utilizes a laser, rather than a
blade, to create a corneal flap. For Intralasik, its only advantage is consistency of flap depth and reduced risk of flap complication. It may be advertised as a "bladeless" procedure, but it is certainly not "flapless" or without an incision!
Preoperative:Patients wearing soft contact lenses typically are instructed to stop wearing them approximately 7 to 10 days before surgery. The day before surgery, you should stop using:• creams • lotions • makeup • perfumes
After Surgery :
• Your eye may burn, itch, or feel like there is something in it.• You may experience some discomfort, or in some cases, mild pain and
your doctor may suggest you take a mild pain reliever. • Both your eyes may tear or water.• Your vision will probably be hazy or blurry.
The flap can be dislodged by any direct injury to the eye after treatment .
Clarity and quality of vision can de diminished if flap conditions occur .
Poor night vision is the most common side effect .Light sensitivity
A subconjunctival hemorrhage is a common and minor post-LASIK complication.
Low oxygen-permeable contact lenses reduce the cornea's absorption of oxygen, which sometimes results in the growth of
blood vessels into the cornea, a process known as corneal neovascularization .
Factors affecting surgery
Advantages of LASIK
a pain free recovery. quick restoration of eyesight and better results for severe short sight. The inner eye is not pierced during the procedure and stitches are not required. Clarity of vision within hours of surgery Extremely predictable No more daily cleaning rituals or recurring costs as with visual aids Increases self-confidence Broad range of treatable prescriptions Both eyes treated on the same day

Faster healing
PRK - Epithelium after alcohol removal
•Devitalized cells pushed to center of the cornea.
•Pseudodendrites typically visible for one week or more and retard healing.
•Average healing time: 5 days
• Some patients take 7 days or longer.
Epi-LASIK – Epithelium after use of Epi-K:
•Epithelium adjacent to removed sheet is fully adherent and not traumatized by alcohol or brush debridement.
•Cornea thus re-epithelializes quickly.
•Average healing time: 2.5 to 3.5 days.
Epi-LASIK: a marriage of two technologiesCompared to other surface method aviable epithelial flap may:
Decrease post-op painRestore good acuity fasterDecrease the formation of post/op healing haze
Compared to LASIK, a viable epithelial flap may improve custom wavefront surgery results:
Decrease the irregularity caused by the LASIK flap hingeDecrease the adverse biomechanical effects of cutting collagen in LASIK
Decrease the effects of the LASIK flap being larger than the resultant bed and microstriae

But now, a new approach to refractive surgery-
Wavefront Guided Custom LASIK- Instead of just correcting defocus (spherical and cylindrical) errors, we can now take a wavefront image- literally a 'fingerprint' of each person's optical pathway- and use the information to reduce or even eliminate higher order aberrations.
not only improve how much a person sees, but also the quality of vision in terms of improvement in contrast sensitivity and fine detail. Risk of post-
Lasik complications, such as glare, halos, and poor night vision, are significantly reduced, and if these conditions are pre-existing they can often
be treated with Wavefront Lasik procedures.
Glaucoma• Definition: Glaucoma is a group of diseases affecting the optic nerve that
results in vision loss and is frequently characterized by raised intraocular pressure )IOP).
• There are four major types of glaucoma
Open angle )chronic) glaucoma Angle closure )acute) glaucoma Congenital glaucoma Secondary glaucoma
The same view with advanced vision loss from glaucoma
A normal range of vision.
TREATMENT
Laser trabeculoplasty
Laser Iridotomy
Cataract surgery
Cataract surgery
Cataract A cataract is an opacification or cloudiness of the eye's crystalline lens due to aging, disease, or trauma that typically prevents light from forming a clear image on the retina.
Light passes through the clear lens implant
•Capsule thickening
Laser makes a small hole in the capsule. Light can then pass directly onto the retina, without being scattered.
LASER TREATMENT
• After laser
Complications :
• Less often, the laser can disturb the retina.• Very rarely a little fluid can build up in the retina.• flashes of light during the daytime • floaters in your vision )it is normal to have these in the weeks after the laser)
Floaters after laser capsulotomy
Laser Treatment Highly Effective in Treating Diabetic Retinopathy
Laser photocoagulation for diabetic retinopathy
• Laser photocoagulation uses the heat from a laser to seal or destroy abnormal, leaking blood vessels in the retina. One of two approaches may be used when treating diabetic retinopathy: Focal photocoagulation
Focal treatment is used to seal specific leaking blood vessels in a small area of the retina, usually near the macula. The ophthalmologist identifies individual blood vessels for treatment and makes a limited number of laser burns to seal them off.
Scatter (pan-retinal) photocoagulation :Scatter treatment is used to slow the growth of new
abnormal blood vessels that have developed over a wide area of the retina. The ophthalmologist may
make hundreds of laser burns on the retina to stop the blood vessels from growing
Panretinal treatment reduces growth of new capillaries throughout the retina.
Diabetic retinopathyNeovascularization
Hemorrhage
AGE RELATED MACULAR DEGENERATION
Risks
Laser photocoagulation burns and destroys part of the retina and often results in some permanent vision loss. Treatment may cause mild loss of central vision, reduced night vision And decreased ability to focus Pain in or around the eye Retinal bleeding Watery eyes Dilated pupils Mild headache Double or blurry vision
What are the advantages of laser therapy?
Less pain, bleeding, swelling, and scarring.
With laser therapy, operations are usually shorter.
In fact, laser therapy can often be done on an outpatient basis.
It takes less time for patients to heal after laser surgery, and they are less likely to get infections.
What are the disadvantages of laser therapy?
Laser therapy is expensive and requires bulk equipment.
In addition, the effects of laser therapy may not last long, so doctors may have to repeat the treatment for a patient to get the full benefit.

Surgical treatment of glaucoma is not usually recommended unless medical treatment has failed to stop vision loss. As is the case with medical treatment, vision that has already been lost cannot be restored. The goal of surgical treatment is to lower the IOP.
Argon Laser Trabeculoplasty )ALT)
The argon laser is used to make a number )50-100) of small burns in the trabecular meshwork in the angle of the eye. In about 75% of the patients treated, this method works to significantly lower the IOP by increasing the outflow of aqueous, although it is not understood exactly how this treatment works to lower the IOP. For about half the patients, the pressure lower effect lasts less than 5 years.
The eye is not dilated for this procedure, so that there is a clear view into the angle. A gonioscopy lens is placed on the anesthetized cornea and a slit lamp biomicroscope is used to aim the laser beam into the angle by reflection on one of the gonio mirrors.
• The complete circle of the angle )360 degrees) is available for treatment. Treatment of half the angle )180 degrees) may be done in one session in order to judge the response of the eye before the other half is done on another day. The ALT treatment can only be repeated one time. The patient typically will still need to use drops to control the IOP.
The treatment is painless and takes less than 15 minutes. The IOP is checked about an hour after the procedure, before the patient is sent home. The patient may be given a steroid drop to use for a few days to reduce post-operative inflammation.
Selective Laser Trabeculoplasty )SLT)
SLT works by using a short pulsed laser of a specific wavelength to target only the melanin-containing cells in the trabecular meshwork. Non-pigmented trabecular meshwork cells are not damaged. This treatment is thought to release cytokines that trigger macrophage recruitment and other changes that lead to IOP reduction. ALT can only be repeated once, but SLT can be repeated several times.
•Filtering Microsurgery )Trabeculectomy)
When medical therapy and laser therapy fail to adequately control the IOP, an alternate drainage route can be made surgically. The procedure is called a trabeculectomy, or a "trab" for short. A small opening, called a sclerostomy, is made in the sclera at the limbus. The opening is connected to the peripheral anterior chamber.
The hole is covered by conjunctiva and the aqueous passes through the opening into the subconjunctival space where it is absorbed. When the trab is working correctly, a small blister or "bleb" is formed. The opening is placed such that the bleb is hidden by the upper eyelid. The figure to the right shows the approximate size and position of the bleb from a front view and and a side view. The surgery is done on a outpatient basis under local anesthesia
•The most common complication is failure due to scarring and closure of the opening. Drugs )5-FU and mitomycin-C) can be used to inhibit scarring. Other possible complications include bleeding, infection, chronic inflammation, cataract formation, and hypotony )the IOP is too low).
The Tube-Shunt
In an eye that is not suitable for the filtering procedure, or the filtering procedure has failed, a drainage implant can be used. A small tube is surgically inserted onto the anterior chamber. The tube connects to a small plate that is inserted next to the sclera and is covered by the conjunctiva.
Possible complications include the tube coming into contact with the cornea, blockage of the tube by the iris, choroidal hemorrhage, hypotony, infection, and chronic inflammation
Ciliary Body Ablation )destruction of the ciliary body)
These treatments are only used in cases of refractory glaucoma. The term "refractory" means "resistant to treatment". Medical and other surgical treatments have failed to sufficiently lower the IOP.
YAG Laser Cyclophotocoagulation )YAG CP): The YAG laser causes a localized destruction of tissue within the eye and most commonly is used to open a hole in an opacified posterior capsule follog cataract surgery. This laser can also be used to destroy part of the ciliary body.
Cyclocryotherapy: A cryo )freezing) probe can be used to destroy the ciliary body. The probe is placed on the outside of the eye, over the ciliary body.
Endo-laser Cyclophotocoagulation: A laser can be used within the eye, usually in conjunction with another surgery, to destroy the ciliary body.
Transcleral Diode Laser Cyclophotocoagulation: A diode laser probe can be used externally, through the sclera, to ablate the ciliary body•

UV crosslinking of the cornea represents a new treatment method based on molecular cross-linking of corneal collagen. The biomechanical properties of the cornea are primarily determined by the collagen fibers and the degree of interfibrillar linkage. The treatment technique involves the use of UV light and riboflavin )vitamin B2, a non toxic photosensitizing solution) for inducing cross-linking to increase biomedical rigidity of the cornea. This allows, in case of keratoconus, to slow down or even to stop the progressive thinnening of the cornea
THE AIM OF THE TREATMENT
The aim of the uv cross-linking treatment is to rise the biomechanical and biochemical stability of the tissues; biomechanical by increasing the interfibrillar linkages of the collagen and biochemical by increasing the resistance to enzymatic digestion. The treatment allows stabilizing and solidifier the cornea, intends to postpone the point of time where corneal transplantation becomes necessary in patients with keratoconus, and in some cases, even to avoid surgery. Keratoconus is a no inflammatory ectasia of the cornea. In general, keratoconus affects both eyes and leads to a progressive irregular deformation of the cornea caused by reduced stiffness of the corneal rigidity. This corneal
deformation goes together with a drastic impairmement of vision ability.
The UV cross linking treatment could also be useful for the treatment of iatrogenic keractectasia. A rare complication after LASIK. Other potential indications are le kératocône frustre )une forme modérée et non évolutive du kératocône), la dégénérescence marginale fellucide, les cornées déstabilisées après kératotomie radiale, etc.
PROCEDURE
The procedure takes place ambulatory and takes about 45 minutes and the anesthesia consists of drops. At first, the epithelium of the cornea )thin surface layer) will be abrased, in order to allow penetration of riboflavin into the corneal stroma. The riboflavin solution is applied onto the cornea during 10 to 15 minutes. Next, the cornea will be irradiated during 30 minutes with UV light )365 nm). During the irradiation, a drop of serum physiologique is applied every 2 minutes to irrigate the cornea
