Abstract

With the improvement and application of excimer laser and femtosecond laser equipment in clinical ophthalmology, the diversified strategies for corneal refractive surgery candidates have been provided. Based on the trend of " all-laser treatment", it is very necessary to take the domestic situation into consideration when a standard and customized choice is made according to the indications of each specific surgical type. The characteristics and limitations of various surgeries are elucidated and commented here in order to provide some reasonable treatment options for refractive surgery.
