Abstract
This study compares postoperative visual outcomes and optical aberrations after Small Incision Lenticule Extraction (SMILE) in patients with both small (S-Kappa: Kappa angle < 0.2 mm) and large Kappa (L-Kappa: Kappa angle ≥ 0.2 mm) angles. The evaluated aberrations include total higher-order aberrations (HOAs), horizontal coma (HC), vertical coma (VC), and spherical aberrations (SA), with procedures incorporating intraoperative Kappa angle adjustments. We retrospectively analyzed patient records undergoing SMILE utilizing linear mixed models (LMM). We assessed adjusted mean uncorrected distance visual acuity (UDVA), Strehl ratio (SR), total HOAs, VC, and SA at pupils of 3 mm and 6 mm for both S-Kappa and L-Kappa. The disparities between S-Kappa and L-Kappa were evaluated by LMM's adjusted mean differences. The differences in optical metrics were also assessed in eyes grouped by myopia levels: low, moderate, and high. A sensitivity analysis was conducted on a threshold of Kappa angle at 0.3 mm. Eight-five patients (169 eyes) were analyzed, and no significant pre-operative difference was found in UDVA (p = .222) or spherical equivalent (p = .433). Post-operative differences were found in SR at 3 mm pupil size (-0.06, p = .022), total HOA 3 mm (0.15, p = .022), HC 3 mm (0.04, p = .042), VC 3 mm and 6 mm (-0.08, p = .041; 0.04, p = .041). The stratified analysis for high myopia revealed significant differences in UDVA (-0.04, p = .037), HC 3 mm (0.07, p = .03), VC 6 mm (-0.21, p = .001), and SA 3 mm and 6 mm (0.07, p = .037; -0.09, p = .037). Sensitivity analysis showed no significant difference using a 0.3 mm Kappa threshold. While some optical aberrations exhibited statistical differences between S-Kappa and L-Kappa, their clinical significance is limited. Thus, a large Kappa angle might not substantially influence post-operative optical aberrations when intraoperative Kappa angle adjustments are implemented.

Abstract
Purpose To assess changes in corneal epithelial thickness (ET) within 9-mm diameter cornea after photorefractive keratectomy (PRK) retreatment after small-incision lenticule extraction (SMILE). Methods A total of 28 eyes of 19 patients with mean spherical equivalent of -1.30 ± 0.60 D who underwent retreatment after SMILE were included in this retrospective study. ET mapped across a 9-mm diameter area was obtained using wide-field optical coherence tomography (OCT) before and at one, three, and six months after surgery. The ET changes were compared between the different time points and analyzed zones. Results Before enhancement, the ET were 63.64 ± 6.01 µm and 61.25 ± 4.32 µm in central and paracentral zones, respectively. The ET of central and paracentral zones significantly decreased at one month and subsequently increased until six months. Six months after surgery, significant epithelial thickening occurred in 2- to 9-mm diameter cornea (all P < 0.05), whereas no significant change was observed in central 2-mm diameter cornea (P = 0.460). There was no significant difference in the ET between the central and paracentral zones (P = 1.00). The degree of myopic correction significantly correlated with the average ET in the central (P = 0.046) and paracentral (P = 0.033) zones at six months after PRK enhancement. No significant correlation was detected between the average ET of all zones and the postoperative spherical equivalent at six months after surgery (all P > 0.05). Conclusions PRK enhancement did not alter the overall trend of corneal epithelial remodeling induced by SMILE. An asymmetric and flatter lenticule-like pattern of epithelial remodeling was observed six months after surgery, which did not affect the refractive outcomes. Translational Relevance An asymmetric and centrally flattened lenticule-like pattern of epithelial remodeling was observed after PRK enhancement. Surgeons should consider expanding the intended optical zones for enhancement surgery after SMILE.

Abstract
PURPOSE To investigate the 12-month outcomes of small incision lenticule extraction (SMILE) with proper head positioning but no reference marking for correcting astigmatism. METHODS This was a retrospective cohort study of 3,541 patients (5,953 eyes) who underwent SMILE between July 2010 and April 2021. Patient positioning on the treatment bed was meticulously done in every patient to avoid face turn, head tilt, and chin-up or chin-down posture. The corrected distance visual acuity (CDVA), uncorrected distance visual acuity (UDVA), manifest refraction, astigmatic outcomes, and adverse events were evaluated at 1, 3, and 12 months postoperatively. RESULTS The mean preoperative manifest spherical equivalent and manifest cylinder were -5.15 ± 2.24 diopters (D) (range: -0.13 to -12.88 D) and -1.00 ± 0.77 D (range: -0.25 and -6.00 D), respectively. Of all eyes, 88.4% and 98.6% had the spherical equivalent within ±0.50 and ±1.00 D of emmetropia at 12 months. The percentage of eyes with UDVA of 20/20 or better was 92.5%. Six eyes (0.1%) lost two or more lines of CDVA at the 12-month visit. The predictability of cylinder correction was excellent, with 88.1% within ±0.50 D and 98.9% within ± 1.00 D of astigmatism correction at 12 months. The mean correction index (CI) at 12 months was 1.09 ± 0.45 (range: 0.17 to 4.99), indicating a slight astigmatism overcorrection. The high cylinder group tended to have undercorrection with greater residual astigmatism, whereas the low cylinder group was likely to have overcorrection with lesser residual astigmatism (P < .001). No serious adverse events were observed. CONCLUSIONS SMILE with proper head positioning but no reference marking produces safe, efficient, predictable, and stable outcomes for astigmatism correction over a 12-month period.

Abstract
Ontology matching is an efficient method to establish interoperability among heterogeneous ontologies. Large-scale ontology matching still remains a big challenge for its long time and large memory space consumption. The actual solution to this problem is ontology partitioning which is also challenging. This paper presents DeepOM, an ontology matching system to deal with this large-scale heterogeneity problem without partitioning using deep learning techniques. It consists on creating semantic embeddings for concepts of input ontologies using a reference ontology, and use them to train an auto-encoder in order to learn more accurate and less dimensional representations for concepts. The experimental results of its evaluation on large ontologies, and its comparison with different ontology matching systems which have participated to the same test challenge, are very encouraging with a precision score of 0.99. They demonstrate the higher efficiency of the proposed system to increase the performance of the large-scale ontology matching task.

Abstract
AIM To evaluate the long-term visual, refractive outcomes and vision-related quality of life after small incision lenticule extraction (SMILE) for the correction of high myopia. METHODS Thirty patients (60 eyes) with high myopia who underwent SMILE more than 5y were selected as the SMILE group. Another 30 high myopia patients (60 eyes) who had worn corrective spectacles for more than 5y were selected as the control group. In SMILE group, the postoperative follow-up time were 3, 6mo, 1 and 5y. Uncorrected distance visual acuity (UDVA), corrected distance visual acuity (CDVA), spherical equivalent (SE), and ocular axial length (AL) were analyzed. The Chinese version of the National Eye Institute Visual Function Questionnaire-25 (CHI-NEI-VFQ-25) was used to evaluate the vision-related quality of life in the SMILE group and the control group. RESULTS In SMILE group, the mean preoperative SE was -7.29±0.87 D (range -6.00 to -9.125 D). At 5-year follow up, the efficacy index and safety index of SMILE were 1.09±0.18 and 1.19±0.12, respectively. Five years postoperatively, 44 eyes (73%) obtained a visual acuity of 20/20 or better. There were no eyes with CDVA loss of one or more Snellen lines. Forty-nine eyes (82%) and 57 eyes (95%) were within ±0.50 and ±1.00 D of attempted correction at 5-year follow-up, respectively. Forty-eight eyes (80%) had astigmatism <0.50 D at 5-year follow-up. The postoperative mean SE values at 3, 6mo, 1, and 5y were 0.11±0.44, 0.07±0.45, -0.02±0.41, and -0.15±0.46 D, respectively. No significant change was observed in the ocular AL from before operation to 5y postoperatively (26.08±0.96 mm vs 26.01±0.94 mm, P=0.068). Compared to the control group, the SMILE group showed a significantly higher total score on the CHI-NEI-VFQ-25 (90.14 vs 81.43, P<0.001). CONCLUSION In the present study, in a long-term follow-up we demonstrate that correcting high myopia with SMILE is safe, effective, and predictable. Vision-related quality of life after SMILE is better in the SMILE group than in the control group who wore corrective spectacles.

Abstract
PURPOSE To evaluate the corneal epithelial thickness (CET) profile changes after small incision lenticule extraction (SMILE) surgery for myopic astigmatism correction of greater than 2.00 diopters (D). METHODS This prospective observational study included 40 eyes (23 patients) treated with SMILE for myopia with cylinders of -2.25 to -4.50 D. Along with standard ophthalmic examinations, CET maps with a diameter of 9 mm were measured by high-resolution spectral-domain optical coherence tomography preoperatively and postoperatively. Correlations between the degree of residual astigmatism and the difference in CET values between preoperative flat and steep meridians were analyzed. RESULTS The CET showed significant changes in the central (2 mm), paracentral (2 to 5 mm), midperipheral (5 to 7 mm), and peripheral (7 to 9 mm) zones 6 months after SMILE (P < .001). Among the regions, the CET in the paracentral zones displayed the largest increase (9.75%) with the highest average thickness (57.29 µm). Moreover, symmetrical regional epithelial thickening at the preoperative astigmatism axis was observed in the midperipheral zones. The difference in CET between preoperative flat and steep meridians in the mid-peripheral zones continuously increased from postoperative 1 day to 6 months. This difference was positively correlated with the residual cylinder errors at 6 months postoperatively (r = -0.334, P = .035). CONCLUSIONS The 9-mm diameter CET in eyes with high astigmatism significantly increased 6 months after SMILE. Additionally, the difference in CET between preoperative flat and steep meridians in midperipheral zones may be related to astigmatic undercorrection in SMILE. [J Refract Surg. 2021;37(4):224-230.].

Abstract
Purpose To compare the accuracy of pre-operative corneal measurements obtained with four devices, and the refractive outcomes of two optical biometers. Setting Private practice. Design Retrospective. Methods Data taken from biometric measurements on 299 consecutive eyes prior to cataract surgery were retrospectively analyzed using the Argos SS-Optical Biometer and the Lenstar LS900 PCI optical biometer. As part of the standard cataract surgery pre-operative exam, patients also underwent placido disk topography and Scheimpflug tomography. Keratometry, anterior chamber depth, corneal diameter, pupil diameter, central corneal thickness and axial length were all measured. The comparable measurements were compared. Finally, for those eyes where cataract surgery was performed, the post-operative refractive results were compared to the predictive results of the two biometers. Results The SS-OCT Argos was able to measure all eyes, while five eyes could not be measured with the Lenstar LS900 PCI. Axial length measurements were performed only with the Argos and Lenstar devices. The eyes that could not be measured by the Lenstar LS900 PCI included dense grade IV nuclear sclerosis and large posterior subcapsular cataracts. In the primary endpoints, there was strong correlation between the Argos and the Lenstar devices in eyes with an axial length between 20 and 30 mm. Conclusion The predictive accuracies of the Argos Optical Biometer and Lenstar LS900 PCI are similar, except in medium and long eyes, in which the predictive accuracy of Argos SS-OCT biometry was higher. The Argos system was found easier to use by technicians when compared to the other biometry devices.

Abstract
PURPOSE To study the efficacy, stability, safety and predictability of small incision lenticule extraction (SMILE) at 1 day and 3 months postoperatively for moderate and high myopic astigmatism. To describe a simple and convenient method for detection and manual compensation of cyclotorsion during the procedure. METHODS In this retrospective study, a total of 164 eyes from 114 patients over 20 years of age with at least 1.5 diopters (D) of myopic astigmatism were treated by SMILE. Any cyclotorsion was manually compensated by gently rotating the cone to align the horizontal marks on the cornea to the 0° to 180° axis of the reticule after activating the suction. RESULTS The mean preoperative spherical equivalent (SE) was -5.3±2.01 D, and the mean cylinder was -2.01±0.67 D. Three months after surgery, a total of 87% of eyes were within±0.50 D of attempted post-operative SE, and 98% of eyes were within±1.00 D. Overall, the predictability of cylinder correction was excellent, with 96.3% of eyes within±1.00 D of attempted post-operative cylinder. The mean postoperative cylinder at three months was -0.3±0.39 D. We noted a slight undercorrection with treatment of high cylinder. However, 82% of eyes achieved postoperative refractive astigmatism less than 0.5 D. 91% of eyes achieved uncorrected distance visual acuity (UDVA) equal to or better than 8/10. 22% of eyes gained one line of visual acuity. CONCLUSION SMILE is a predictable and safe technique for the surgical correction of astigmatism. Manual compensation may be an effective approach to improve astigmatic outcomes of SMILE, especially in moderate and high astigmatism.

Abstract
PURPOSE To evaluate the vector outcomes of small incision lenticule extraction (SMILE) in correcting moderate to high myopic astigmatism under astigmatic axis marked condition. METHODS In a prospective, longitudinal, interventional study, 71 eyes (71 patients) that had with-the-rule preoperative cylinder refraction exceeding 1.50 diopters (D) were corrected with the VisuMax femtosecond laser (Carl Zeiss Meditec AG) at Zhongshan Ophthalmic Center. Refractive outcomes and astigmatic vector were evaluated preoperatively and at 1, 3, 6, and 30 months postoperatively. RESULTS At 30 months postoperatively, the efficacy and safety indexes were 1.04 ± 0.18 and 1.15 ± 0.17, respectively. The magnitude of the surgically induced astigmatism (SIA) (2.13 ± 0.71 D at 1 month [P1m-pre = .018], 2.12 ± 0.72 D at 3 months [P3m-pre = .006], 2.13 ± 0.69 D at 6 months [P6m-pre = .010], and 2.19 ± 0.72 D at 30 months [P30m-pre < .001]) was slightly higher than that of the target induced astigmatism (TIA) (2.07 ± 0.69 D). Only the y-coordinate of the SIA vector had a significant overcorrection compared to that of the TIA vector (P1m-pre = .033, P3m-pre = .011, P6m-pre = .012, P30m-pre < .001). The corrected index (CI = |SIA|/|TIA|) varied from 1.03 ± 0.07 at 1 month to 1.06 ± 0.10 at 30 months, which was higher when correcting moderate astigmatism than when correcting high astigmatism (P = .041) at 30 months postoperatively. CONCLUSIONS SMILE had long-term safety, efficacy, predictability, and stability when correcting moderate to high myopic astigmatism under astigmatism axis marked condition. Meanwhile, a cylinder overcorrection was observed due to the overcorrection of y-coordinate astigmatic power, which implied that the vector adjustment of the cylinder refraction nomogram should be considered.

Abstract
PURPOSE To evaluate the effect of cyclotorsion compensation with an image-guided system (Callisto eye; Carl Zeiss Meditec AG, Jena, Germany) on the visual and refractive outcomes of small incision lenticule extraction (SMILE) surgery for astigmatism. METHODS The medical records of 124 right eyes of 124 patients with astigmatism of 0.75 diopters (D) or greater who underwent SMILE for myopic astigmatism were reviewed. Patients were treated with cyclotorsion compensated SMILE or standard SMILE. After the sitting position reference axis was registered with IOLMaster 700 (Carl Zeiss Meditec AG), these data were transferred to the Callisto eye system, which was connected to the operating VisuMax microscope (Carl Zeiss Meditec AG). Cyclotorsion was measured by activating the Z-align function and compensated for by repositioning the patient's body or tilting the head until the reference axis from the IOLMaster 700 (0-180) was parallel to a manually drawn reference axis on the screen (0-180) before docking. The visual and refractive results were studied preoperatively and postoperatively. Astigmatic changes were interpreted using the Alpins method. RESULTS Six months after surgery, the results showed that the astigmatic eyes in the cyclotorsion compensated group had improved axial alignment, more precise astigmatic correction, and better postoperative uncorrected distance visual acuity (UDVA) compared with the standard group. The mean logMAR UDVA was 0.02 ± 0.10 (range: -0.15 to 0.30) and 0.06 ± 0.11 (range: -0.15 to 0.30) (P = .13) and the mean astigmatic error was -0.19 ± 0.17 D (range: -0.50 to 0.00 D) and -0.45 ± 0.38 D (range: -1.50 to 0.00 D) (P < .001) in the cyclotorsion compensated group and the standard group, respectively. In regard to vector analysis, the mean index of success was 0.00 ± 0.00 (range: 0.00 to 0.00) and 0.40 ± 0.48 (range: 0.00 to 2.72) (P < .001), and the mean absolute angle of error in degrees was 1.18 ± 2.23 (range: 0.00 to 13.00) and 3.76 ± 3.80 (range: 0.00 to 14.00) (P < .001) in the cyclotorsion compensated group and the standard group, respectively. CONCLUSIONS The combination of the Callisto eye system with a VisuMax laser might be an efficacious and reliable approach to enhance astigmatism treatment with SMILE surgery.
