Descriptor English: Keratectomy, Subepithelial, Laser-Assisted
Descriptor Spanish: Queratectomía Subepitelial Asistida por Láser
Descriptor queratectomía subepitelial con láser
Entry term(s) queratomileusis subepitelial con láser
Scope note: Técnica quirúrgica para corregir DEFECTOS DE REFRACCIÓN del OJO, como la MIOPÍA y el ASTIGMATISMO. En este método, se crea un colgajo de EPITELIO CORNEAL exponiendo la zona a alcohol diluido. Se levanta el colgajo y luego se sustituye después de la ablación con láser de la CÓRNEA subepitelial.

Scope note: A surgical technique to correct REFRACTIVE ERRORS of the EYE, such as MYOPIA and ASTIGMATISM. In this method, a flap of CORNEAL EPITHELIUM is created by exposure of the area to dilute alcohol. The flap is lifted and then replaced after laser ablation of the subepithelial CORNEA.
