title: Initial Experience With the Wavelight Refractive Suite for Myopic Laser In Situ Keratomileusis.
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  The objective of this study was to describe our initial experience with the newest refractive platform, the Wavelight Refractive Suite.
  
  
  METHODS
  This was a consecutive case series of first 50 eyes that underwent myopic laser in situ keratomileusis.
  
  
  METHODS
  A total of 50 myopic eyes (28 patients) were included in this study. Uncorrected distance visual acuity, manifest refraction, and keratometry readings were taken preoperatively and 3 months postoperatively. Emmetropia was targeted with an optical zone of 6.5 mm, and flap dimensions were of 130-μm thickness and 9-mm diameter with a superior hinge in all eyes. Flap thickness was measured with optical coherence tomography postoperatively.
  
  
  RESULTS
  At 3 months postoperatively, 82% (41/50) of eyes achieved uncorrected distance visual acuity of 6/6 or better, 98% (49/50) achieved 6/9 or better, and all eyes achieved 6/12 or better. Eighty-four percent of eyes were within 0.5 diopter (D) of target of emmetropia, and 98% of eyes were within 1 D. Mean postoperative flap thickness was 124 ± 7.8 μm.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  The Wavelight Refractive Suite consisting of the femtosecond laser FS200 and Excimer laser EX500 is the newest integrated refractive surgical platform available and can offer good refractive predictability as shown by the results in our initial 50 myopic eyes.
