In the field of refractive surgery, the excimer laser has been the reliable workhorse for corneal surgery, with a large number of satisfied patients for more than three decades. In 2008, Sekundo et al.1–3 reported a new procedure using femtosecond laser technology called femtosecond lenticule extraction, which still required lifting of a flap to remove tissue (the refractive lenticule) from the anterior part of the cornea. The technique soon developed further to a minimally invasive procedure called small incision lenticule extraction (SMILE), which avoided using a corneal flap and all of its

小切口小晶状体摘除的10年结果

在屈光手术领域，准分子激光一直是角膜手术的可靠工具，在过去的三十多年中，大量的患者对此感到满意。在2008年，Sekundo等人[1-3]报告了一种新的程序，即使用飞秒激光技术的飞秒小透镜抽出术，该方法仍需要提起皮瓣以从角膜前部去除组织（屈光小透镜）。该技术很快发展为一种称为小切口小孔镜摘除术（SMILE）的微创手术，避免了使用角膜瓣及其所有
