Abstract
A new technique of hyperopic correction similar to radial thermokeratoplasty is presented. A pulsed Holmium:YAG laser was used, emitting a wavelength of 2.06 µm. The laser light was guided by a quartz fiber and focused by means of a handpiece. ...This publication has 5 references indexed in Scilit:
