Abstract
THE ASSESSMENT OF THE RESULTS OBTAINED THROUGH THE FEMTO LASIK TECHNIQUE AS CONSEQUENCE OF THE REFRACTIVE SURGERY FOR THE CORRECTION OF REFRACTIVE ERRORS IN CASE OF 34 P ATIENTS OPERATED USING THE WAVELIGHT (FS200 FEMTO LASER & EX500 LASER EXCIMER) REFRACTIVE SUITE, TRYING TO DEMONSTRATE THE EFFICIENCY , STABILITY AND SAFETY OF THE METHOD.
