Corrective eye surgeries, such as Lasik, are widely used to correct focusing problems such as myopia, or nearsightedness. Often these patients develop other conditions like myopic maculopathy or glaucoma which require monitoring with optical coherence tomography (OCT). Since OCT is a light-based test and changes the refractive status of the eye (in the cornea or the lens), it can potentially affect the results of the OCT measurements but has not been sufficiently studied. This pilot study aims at studying the potential change in OCT parameters in the eye after undergoing such surgery.

Refractive surgeries are widely used in patients with ametropia. Refractive surgery is most commonly performed in patients with myopia. These patients often have a predilection for developing other conditions in the posterior segment of the eye, like myopic maculopathy or glaucoma which require monitoring with optical coherence tomography (OCT). Since OCT is a light-based test and changes in the refractive status of the eye (in the cornea or the lens) can potentially affect the results of the OCT measurements. Literature review reveals that the effect of significant changes in refractive power of the eye on the parameters of optical coherence tomography (OCT) has not been sufficiently studied. Some authors simulated the effect of refractive surgery using a contact lens but had diverging results. This prospective pilot study aims at studying the potential change in OCT parameters in the eye after undergoing refractive surgery.

Inclusion Criteria:

1. Patients undergoing refractive surgery
2. For patients undergoing bilateral eye surgery, the one with higher degree of ametropia will be included.

Exclusion Criteria:

1. Astigmatism more than 3 Diopters
2. Visual acuity worse than 20/25
3. Patients with unstable visual fixation
4. Severe Dry Eye

All subjects in the study will be adults aged 19 years or more, that fits the typical age profile of patients in the refractive surgery clinic. Refractive surgery is an elective surgery and the patients are encouraged to ask questions about the study. This is an observational study and all aspects of care, including procedures, visits, and exams, carried out as part of the study represent standard of care. Patients visiting the refractive surgery clinic will be given an option to participate in the study if they meet the selection criteria. The clinical care of the patient will not be affected by the patient's participation or non-participation in the study.
