Clinical Study

A Clinical and Confocal Microscopic Comparison of Transepithelial PRK and LASEK for Myopia

Figure 2

In vivo confocal microscopic examination of the eyes in Figure 1. In most anterior stroma beneath the epithelium, a lower keratocyte density but more extracellular matrix deposition is noted in the transepithelial PRK-treated eye (a) compared to the contralateral LASEK-treated eye (b) at 1 month postoperatively.
