Comparing two types of LASIK for nearsightedness and astigmatism
Part of Eyes & vision clinical trials.
This study compares two types of LASIK surgery to correct nearsightedness and astigmatism. It may help if you have healthy eyes, are 22 or older, and have a stable prescription within a certain range.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 22 years old or older.
- Your eyes are healthy (no corneal disease, glaucoma, cataracts, or autoimmune conditions).
- You are not pregnant or nursing.
- Your nearsightedness is between -1.00 and -10.00 diopters, and similar in both eyes.
- You have 3.00 diopters or less of astigmatism, and the amount is similar in both eyes.

This trial compares two laser vision correction methods: SMILE surgery in one eye and LASIK surgery in the other eye. It is designed for people with mild to moderate nearsightedness and astigmatism to see which approach works better.
This study compares three laser eye surgeries—LASIK, SMILE, and PRK—to see which works best for people who have similar eye prescription needs. You may be a good fit if you’ve never had vision-correcting surgery before and you meet the eye-health safety checks.
This study compares a new type of laser surgery (ray-tracing guided) to three other standard laser methods for correcting nearsightedness with or without astigmatism. It aims to see which approach provides the best vision correction.
This study tests a newer version of LASIK eye surgery to correct nearsightedness and astigmatism. The researchers want to see if this laser approach is safe and effective for people who are eligible.
This study tests how well a new type of LASIK (called ray-tracing-guided) improves vision in low light and how satisfied patients are with the results. It is for people with mild to moderate nearsightedness who want to stop wearing glasses or contacts.
This trial compares two ways of mapping your eye to guide LASIK surgery for people with nearsightedness and mild astigmatism. It looks at how well vision (especially best-corrected vision) does after surgery one month later.
