Intervention / Comparator Agent  
Type  Name  Details 
Comparator Agent  flap diameter  Based on optical zone, pupil size and white to white diameter ,different sizes of applanating contact glasses will be used and flap will be created with FS laser. predicted flap size will be compared with post operative achieved flap size and will be corelated with the corneal anatomic parameters like keratomtery and q value of the patient. Total duration of intervention for each eye will be 5-7minutes 
Intervention  Visumax 800 Femtosecond laser  visumax 800 femtosecond laser is used to create corneal flap in patients undergoing cornea based refractive correction surgery

Brief Summary   Femto-flaps are recognized to have better safety, accuracy and predictability when compared to flaps created using a microkeratome. However it has been observed that the post-operative flap diameter achieved using femto-laser is slightly larger in diameter compared to what was originally planned. This may have implications, clinically. Especially while treating eyes with larger pupil size or hyperopic eyes where larger flaps are planned wherein the flap diameter may extend beyond the planned, resulting in a more peripheral cut. This may potentially result in more post-op corneal dryness due to cutting of the peripheral nerve plexus or may increase the risk of bleeding from the peripheral corneal vessels in patients using contact lenses prior to LASIK. Different mechanisms may be the cause of this disparity , chiefly the excessive pressure on the cornea while docking, significant opaque bubble layer formation or mismatch of the corneal curvature and the curvature of the contact glass. This prospective, interventional, non-randomized comparative study would thus investigate the correlation of various corneal anatomic parameters ( keratometry, Q-value, white to white diameter etc) with the post-operative flap size achieved following docking using different sizes of contact glass. The study would thus help us in elucidating the reasons for the disparity observed in predicted versus achieved flap size and the effects of using different sizes of applanating contact glasses.
The type of contact glass to be used during the surgery will be decided by the surgeon after considering the optical zone, pupil size and white to white diameter of the cornea. The recommended minimum corneal diameter for use of small contact glass will be 11.2 mm or less and for the medium contact glass will be between 11.3 to 12 mm.
