We will present two parts: (A) TransPRK (TPRK) and (B) SMILE clinical outcomes. Part (A) regards to the long term result of TransPRK focusing on its efficacy and safety. This is a retrospective study, 48 patients treating with TPRK and 34 patients with LASEK were followed up for 6 months to 1 year summary. TPRK can correct myopia and astigmatism with high safety and efficacy; comparing to LASEK, TPRK has the advantages of faster epithelium healing and visual recovery, while both achieve great VA. Part (B) presents the study on SMILE clinical outcomes, where a total of 1000 eyes were conducted and 240 eyes having a following up of more than 6 months. The result showed that after surgery, all of the eyes achieved the pre-op best-corrected visual acuity. To evaluate patients� optical quality following corneal laser refractive surgery, we designed a questionnaire based on National Eye Institute Refractive Error Quality of Life instrument. In SMILE group, patients� scores were relatively high for these items, indicating rather satisfying surgical outcomes. It can be concluded from the study that the patients� satisfaction and optical quality were best following SMILE.
