New technique for studying incision depth in experimental radial keratotomy.
Older techniques of analyzing incision depth in incisional keratotomy consist of serial transverse sections taken at various points along the incision. Information as to shape and depth of the incision are reconstructed from these sections. We describe a new method for studying the incision depth and profile along the entire incision length.
