Abstract

Il presente trovato concerne un'apparecchiatura per la correzione dell'astigmatismo mediante modellazione della superficie corneale per foto ablazione.Esso utilizza un fascio laser (prodotto da un laser ad eccimeri) che viene diaframmato per mezzo di una speciale maschera (1) in modo che, ad ogni applicazione, venga colpita una prestabilita superficie della corne (3) sulla quale viene esercitata l'azione di rimozione di uno strato uniforme di tessuto di spessore molto piccolo.
