Inclusion criteria

* LASIK candidates treated with the Carriazo-Pendular microkeratome - 130 micron head

Exclusion criteria

* corneal irregularities \> 3D * Thin corneal CCT \< 460μm * Active anterior segment disease * Previous intraocular or corneal surgery * History of herpetic eye disease * Corneal scarring * Glaucoma * Severe dry eye * Topographic evidence of keratoconus

Design outcomes

Primary

Measure	Time frame	Description
Corneal flap thickness (micrometers)	6 months postoperatively	Flap thickness was calculated by subtracting the preoperative central corneal thickness minus the intraoperative residual stromal thickness. All measurements were made using ultrasound pachymetry (non-interventional technique).
