- Candidates who elect to target both eyes targeted for emmetropia
- ≤ -3.0 D Oblique astigmatism as defined as an axis between 30-60 degrees or between 120-150 degrees
Exclusion Criteria
- Subjects with usual relative and absolute contraindications for LASIK surgery (subjects with severe dry eye, subjects with recurrent corneal erosion, subjects with uncontrolled Glaucoma, subjects with collagen vascular disorders, keratoconus or signs of keratoconus, Uncontrolled Diabetes, Herpes, corneal dystrophies or degeneration; any irregular astigmatism)
- Pachymetry below 490
- Autoimmune or immunodeficiency diseases, Pregnant or nursing women
- Subjects with signs of inability to understand consent for study and procedure planned
- Subjects with history of previous ocular surgery The principal investigator reserves the right to declare a patient ineligible or non-evaluable based on medical evidence that indicates they are unsuitable for the trial. Pregnancy has a known effect on the stability of refractions and visual acuity. As such, subjects who become pregnant during the study will not be discontinued but their data may be excluded from analyses of effectiveness.
