摘要

近年来，飞秒激光小切口透镜取出术（SMILE）在临床上得到广泛应用，其有效性、安全性和可预测性均得到国内外研究证实。角膜生物力学与屈光手术的多个环节密切相关，其关乎到手术方案选择、手术效果、手术安全乃至角膜长期稳定性，在屈光手术中具有重要意义。本篇综述将比较SMILE和其他屈光手术对角膜生物力学的影响，以期为临床及科研提供参考依据。

Abstract

In recent years

small incision lenticule extraction (SMILE) has been widely used in clinical practice. Its effectiveness

safety

and predictability have been confirmed by both domestic and international studies. Corneal biomechanics is closely related to multiple aspects of refractive surgery

including surgical plan selection

surgical outcomes

surgical safety

and even long⁃term corneal stability. It is of great significance in refractive surgery. This review aims to compare the effects of SMILE and other refractive surgeries on corneal biomechanics to provide a basis for both clinical practice and scientific research.
