Abstract

The results of this follow-up study show that combined insertion of a small-aperture corneal inlay with LASIK in presbyopic patients improves near vision with a slight compromise in distance vision in the implanted eye. Overall, it appears to be a safe, effective procedure for the treatment of presbyopia. [J Refract Surg. 2016;32(6):379-384.].
