Objective To evaluate and compare the thickness and morphology of laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) flaps created by either the WaveLight FS-200 femtosecond laser or the Moria microkeratome M2 90 using anterior segment optical coherence tomography (AS-OCT). Methods This was a prospective case-control study. Bilateral LASIK was performed on 61 myopic patients. Flaps were created using the WaveLight FS-200 femtosecond laser in 72 eyes and the Moria M2 90 microkeratome in 50 eyes. The thickness at 17 points across each flap, 0 mm, ±2 mm, and ±3.5 mm to the corneal vertex on the horizontal, vertical, 45° and 135° meridians, were evaluated using a Visante AS-OCT at 1 week postoperatively. An independent t test was used. Results The central flap thickness of the WaveLight group was 105.53±5.86 µm, while it was 132.96±13.91 µm in the Moria group (t=-13.16, P<0.01). The difference between the achieved and the intended flap thickness (accuracy) was 6.17±3.98 µm and 23.60±12.64 µm, respectively (t=-15.20, P<0.01). The standard deviation of thickness in the 17 points within an individual flap (uniformity) was 4.07±0.94 µm in the WaveLight group and 8.48±2.35 µm in the Moria group (t=-12.60, P<0.01). The index S (Symmetry) of Moria group (33.81±11.28 µm) was significantly smaller in the WaveLight group (68.46±26.66 µm) (t=-8.67, P<0.01). Conclusion AS-OCT showed that the flaps created with the WaveLight FS-200 femtosecond laser were more accurate, reproducible, and uniform than those created with the Moria M2 90 microkeratome.
