Binocular and monocular uncorrected distance visual acuity (UDVA), monocular contrast sensitivity, and a patient questionnaire were evaluated during the first hours, 1 day, and 1 month postoperatively.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n RESULTS:<\/jats:title>\n \n For monocular UDVA, 100% of eyes were 20\/40 at 1 hour and 100% were 20\/25 at 4 hours. For binocular UDVA, all patients achieved 20\/32 by 30 minutes and 20\/20 by 4 hours. Low frequency contrast sensitivity returned to preoperative baseline by 1 hour (\n P<\/jats:italic>\n =.73), and showed a statistically significant improvement over baseline by 4 hours (\n P<\/jats:italic>\n =.01). High frequency monocular contrast sensitivity returned to preoperative baseline by 4 hours (\n P<\/jats:italic>\n =.48), and showed a statistically significant improvement by 1 month (\n P<\/jats:italic>\n =.04). At 2 and 4 hours, 50% and 100% of patients, respectively, indicated that they would feel comfortable driving.\n <\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n CONCLUSIONS:<\/jats:title>\n Visual recovery after thin-flap femtosecond LASIK is rapid, occurring within the first few hours after surgery.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.3928\/1081597x-20120815-06","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2012,9,4]],"date-time":"2012-09-04T13:57:00Z","timestamp":1346767020000},"page":"620-624","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":9,"title":["Evaluating the Speed of Visual Recovery Following Thin-flap LASIK With a Femtosecond Laser"],"prefix":"10.3928","volume":"28","author":[{"given":"Daniel S.","family":"Durrie","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Jason P.","family":"Brinton","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Michele R.","family":"Avila","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Erin D.","family":"Stahl","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"2308","reference":[{"key":"e_1_3_2_2_2","first-page":"451","article-title":"A prospective, contralateral comparison of photorefractive keratectomy (PRK) versus thin-flap LASIK: assessment of visual function","volume":"5","author":"Hatch BB","year":"2011","unstructured":"Hatch BB, Moshirfar M, Ollerton AJ, Sikder S, Mifflin MD.
