ABSTRACT

Purpose: To determinate the variation between programmed and obtained segments depth in patients operated with laser of femtoseconds and intrastromal segments.
Methods: Prospective, longitudinal and descriptive study using None Parametric Wilcoxon Statistic Analysis. We studied 26 segments of 10 patients with optic coherence tomography to see the segment depth.
Results: 26 segments of 10 patients with intrastromal segments surgery with femtosecond laser were studied, all of them with keratoconus. Every one with two segments at 400 m of depth. The post-surgery depth average is 498.4 ± 36.5 m with statistic significance (p = 0.000), 100% of segments were deeper than programmed.
