Spherical aberrations persist after LASIK with laser- or microkeratome-created flaps
Quote:
FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. ? Spherical aberration increases and remains elevated for at least 1 year after LASIK regardless of whether flaps are created using a femtosecond laser or a mechanical microkeratome, according to a study presented here.

However, the study data show that the femtosecond laser induced lasting spherical aberration similar to that resulting from microkeratomes, he said.
