Abstract

The wound healing of rabbit corneas irradiated with Q-switched Er:YAG laser was characterized by reepithelialization within 3-5 days, the onset of haze formation with a maximum after 10 days and finally the clearing of the cornea after 21 days. Hispathological analysis of the corneas revealed a thermally induced pseudo-membrane of less than 10 μm thickness, prolonged observation of degenerated basal epithelial cells, enhanced keratocytal activity and reorganization of anterior stromal collagen. The wound healing on rabbit cornea of the Q-switched Er:YAG laser radiation in corneal tissue processing resembles that what is known from ArF-excimer laser application. Consequently, shortening the pulse width by means of Q-switching is one major key to the successful application of Er:YAG laser for refractive corneal surgery.
