3 LASIK + Collagen Cross Linking - Is it a Good Idea? What Do We Already Know? Cross Linking Works Ectasia is Bad! What Do We Need to Know? Can We Prevent Ectasia Safely Can We Address Regulatory/Cost Issues

7 The Lasik Xtra Procedure
8 Concerns to Address - LASIK Xtra Any Increase in Risk with the Procedure Intra-Operative Concerns Peri-Operative Issues Change in Refractive Outcome What Results do we Have Available
9 International Experience - LASIK Xtra A. John Kanellopoulos, Greece >5 Year Follow Up, Lower Enhancement Rate, Greater Stability in Hyperopes over 2 Years Gustavo Tamayo, Colombia >200 Eyes, 1 Year Follow Up, 0% Enh Rate in Myopes Howard Gimbel, Canada Option Offered to All Patients, No Adverse Events Noted 1010 cases (542 LASIK Xtra, 468 PRK Xtra) Being Followed Minoru Tomita, Japan >24,000 Patients Treated

13 LASIK XTRA International Experience Gustavo Tamayo, Bogota, Colombia (Tamayo GE. J Cataract Refract Surg Dec;38(12):2206) Compared 66 myopic eyes treated with Lasik Xtra, 42 eyes Lasik only No algorithm change No enhancement procedures to date in myopic eyes One enhancement in a presbyopic Lasik Xtra patient: surgeon reports no difficulty lifting the flap and successful retreatment Lasik Xtra Lasik Only Baseline MRSE D D 1 Day UCVA (snellen) 20/21 20/20 1 Month UCVA 20/18 20/20 1 Month MRSE
14 FEMTOSECOND LASIK XTRA REGULAR FS LASIK
15 Lasik Xtra: Clinical Outcomes around the World John Kanellopoulos, Athens, Greece (pre-publication data, accepted to JCRS) 34 consecutive hyperopic patients scheduled to undergo bilateral topography guided hyperopic LASIK were randomized to receive Lasik Xtra in one eye, and LASIK alone in the other. At 2 years postoperatively, eyes treated with Lasik Xtra demonstrated regression of +0.22±0.31 D. Eyes treated with standard LASIK demonstrated a statistically significant greater regression of +0.72±0.19 D.

18 Methods Patients 24 myopic candidates with mean age: 30.4±5.3 (range:19 to 40 y.o.) were enrolled in this study with sufficient informed consent before participation. Patients had bilateral LASIK, then KXL had performed but only on their non-dominant eye. Dominant Non-dominant LASIK VS LASIK KXL LASIK Xtra

22 Demarcation Line observed by OCT: flap interface flap interface flap interface Demarcation line Demarcation line Demarcation lines were observed at depths of 200 to 250 µm. Aside from the depth of demarcation line, this postoperative finding is consistent wi the results of other post CXL studies. 4,5 -In previously published CXL cases, the demarcation line was found at depths of over 300 µm. 4.

24 Higher volume study cont d Sphere (D) 1.00 Cylinder(D) LASIK Xtra LASIK Xtra The refractive change in this high-volume study also demonstrated similar result with standard LASIK.
25 Status of Concerns - LASIK Xtra Increase in Risk with the Procedure No Change in Endothelial Cell Counts Intra-Operative Concerns Initial Antecodtal Reports of Flap Slippage Resolved Peri-Operative Issues No Evidence of DLK No Change in Refractive Outcome Is it Really Doing Anything Evidence of Demarcation Line on OCT
26 Does LASIK Xtra Reduce the Risk of Ectasia Not Likely to Have Definitive Study Incidence of Ectasia is Low (1/5,000?) Challenge in Studies Demonstrating Prevention Endophthalmitis and Antibiotics CME and NSAID s Infer Efficacy? Strong Evidence That Cross Linking Treats Ectasia
27 Challenges in Offering LASIK Xtra FDA Approval Definitive Study Unlikely (Of Course, Still Awaiting Approval for Cross Linking for KCN) Cost Factors Surgeons/Laser Centers Device Drug/Disposables Will Refractive Surgery Patients Pay More Patient Perception of LASIK
28 Next Steps in Offering LASIK Xtra Refine Nomograms Initially Treat Higher Risk Patients High Myopes Younger Patients Thinner Corneas Questionable Corneal Topography (otherwise may be PRK candidates?) Achieve FDA Approval with Hyperopic LASIK Xtra?
29 AVEDRO CLINICAL TRIALS LASIK and Accelerated Crosslinking Multi-center, randomized study of the safety and efficacy of the KXL System with Photrexa ZD (Riboflavin) for performing crosslinking in eyes undergoing hyperopic LASIK Each subject will have bilateral LASIK performed and one eye will be randomized to undergo LASIK followed by crosslinking
30 AVEDRO CLINICAL TRIALS LASIK and Accelerated Crosslinking Intended treatment > +2.0 diopters (D) to < +6.0 D of MRSE hyperopia or hyperopia with astigmatism, with up to +6.0 D of spherical component and up to 5.0 D of astigmatism Enrollment 154 patients undergoing LASIK for hyperopia or hyperopic astigmatism in up to 10 sites in the US
31 LASIK Xtra, Is it a Good Idea? Procedure Relatively Easy to Integrate with LASIK Strong Evidence That Cross Linking Treats Ectasia Results Demonstrate: Study data does not indicate increase in risk Refractive Outcome Predictable What Additional Evidence is Required Ethical to Not Offer to All Refractive Patients?
