- 摘要：Purpose
To investigate the current situation and future trends in the field of refractive surgery in Korea.
MethodsSince 1995, the members of the Korean Society of Cataract and Refractive Surgery (KSCRS) have been annually surveyed on cataract and refractive surgery. The 2007 annual survey, consisting of 66 multiple-choice questions, was mailed in August 2008 to 336 KSCRS members. Fifty (14.9%) members answered. Current data were compared with those of previous annual survey and with those of the USA.
ResultsThe respondents in their forties accounted for the highest percentage (38%) of the subjects, and VISX S4 was the most popularly used (32%). The use of IntraLase femtosecond laser (AMO, USA) had increased. LASIK still accounted for the highest percentage (48%) of refractive surgeries. LASIK was preferred for myopia less than -8D, and phakic IOL was preferred for myopia more than -8D. Almost all the respondents answered that most promising refractive surgery is phakic IOL and the respondents who preferred LASIK decreased.
ConclusionsThis survey summarized current trends and changes in cataract and refractive surgery in Korea.
