Brief Summary

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

The objective of the current study is to prospectively evaluate 3-month clinical outcomes from LASIK performed using the Phorcides surgical planning software with Contoura topography-guided ablation in both eyes of subjects with myopia and myopic astigmatism seeking refractive surgery for distance correction.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

The objective of the current study is to prospectively evaluate 3-month clinical outcomes from LASIK performed using the Phorcides surgical planning software with Contoura topography-guided ablation in both eyes of subjects with myopia and myopic astigmatism seeking refractive surgery for distance correction. Data will be compared to published results for wavefront optimized LASIK and LASIK performed with Contoura using other refractive algorithms.

The hypothesis is that use of the Phorcides planning software will result in a higher percentage of eyes with residual refractive cylinder ≤ 0.25D than will be achieved with wavefront-optimized (WFO) LASIK. It is also expected that unaided postoperative visual acuity and visual symptoms will be improved.
