ABSTRACT PURPOSE: To study the utility of measurements of contrast sensitivity at
different spatial frequencies as an index of visual recovery following refractive surgery …

THE GOAL of refractive surgery is to im-prove unaided vision in ametropic pa-tients without
the aid of spectacles and contact lenses. Refraction for the prescription of these appliances …

Purpose: To determine whether contrast sensitivity measurement, a more sensitive test of
visual function than visual acuity, better characterizes visual outcomes after laser in situ …

ABSTRACT PURPOSE: To evaluate contrast sensitivity under mesopic conditions in patients
who have undergone uncomplicated bilateral laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) for …

ABSTRACT PURPOSE: To evaluate contrast sensitivity under mesopic conditions in patients
who had undergone uncomplicated excimer laser photorefractive keratectomy (PRK) for …

PURPOSE:: To evaluate the relationship between contrast sensitivity, surgical treatment
zone, and clearance (ablation or clear zone—pupil diameter), photorefractive keraectomy …

Purpose: To evaluate the effect on contrast sensitivity function of laser in situ keratomileusis
(LASIK) for the correction of myopia. Setting. Alicante Institute of Ophthalmology, University …

OBJECTIVE: To determine the effects of laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) on best-
corrected visual acuity (BCVA) and contrast sensitivity. DESIGN: Prospective, observational …

ABSTRACT BACKGROUND: To date, Snellen visual acuity and postoperative refraction
have been used to evaluate the results of photorefractive keratectomy. However, other …

Objectives To study the effects of radial keratotomy (RK) and photorefractive keratectomy
(PRK) on contrast sensitivity and glare disability using 4 different devices, and to correlate …
