Abstract
The creation of the LASIK flap alone can modify the eye's optical characteristics in low-order aberrations and HOAs. A significant increase in HOAs was seen in the Hansatome group but not in the IntraLase group. This may have significant clinical implications in wavefront-guided LASIK treatments, which are based on measurements made before flap creation.
