Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Before astigmatism reducing surgery, accurate corneal horizontal marking before surgery is important. Due to new corneal topographic method, iTrace™ surgical workstation, precise evaluation of corneal horizontal marking is available. In this study the investigators compared three known corneal horizontal making techniques and evaluate accuracy of each methods using iTrace™.
