PURPOSE: To compare the refractive and functional outcomes and wavefront profiles in eyes with decentered ablations and eyes with well-centered ablations.
SETTING: Medical Research Foundation, Chennai, Tamil Nadu, India.
METHODS: This retrospective analysis comprised eyes with topographically diagnosed decentered ablations after laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK). Refraction, contrast sensitivity, and ocular wavefront aberrations were measured preoperatively and 1 month postoperatively. The induced aberrations in these eyes were compared with those in eyes with well-centered ablations.
RESULTS: Forty-six eyes (38 patients) had decentered ablations and 60 eyes (32 patients), well-centered ablations. The mean decentration in the study group was 0.86 mm +/- 0.29 (SD) (range 0.35 to 1.61 mm). There was no significant correlation between decentration and attempted refractive correction. There was, however, a statistically significant (P<.05) linear correlation between the distance of decentration and the magnitude of induced tilt (r = -0.31), coma (r = -0.41), and secondary astigmatism (r = 0.36). The induced changes in tilt, oblique astigmatism, vertical coma, and spherical aberration were statistically significantly higher in eyes with decentered ablations than in eyes with well-centered ablations. A statistically significantly higher percentage of eyes (87%) with well-centered ablations than eyes with decentered ablations (70%) had a postoperative uncorrected visual acuity (UCVA) of 20/20 or better. There was no significant difference in contrast sensitivity between groups.
CONCLUSION: Eyes with decentered ablations had a significantly higher magnitude of induced aberrations and lower UCVA than eyes with well-centered ablations.
