Atomic force microscopy for the evaluation of corneal surface roughness after femtosecond laser flap creation and excimer ablation

ConclusionsOur results show that the roughness of the surface treated with excimer is clearly lower than in the group with no excimer ablation; thus, the application of laser excimer after a flap created by femtosecond laser seems to soften the nano-irregularities created by this technique.
