Despite the huge market collapse in 2008 due to the economic crisis, the number of LASIK and PRK procedures has increased again during the last decade. The most likely trend is a progressive increase in cases as the incidence of myopia is set to rise dramatically in the future. Holden et al.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0005"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">1</span></a> estimate an increase in the total number of patients with myopia worldwide from 2.62 billion in 2020 (34% of the world’s population) to 4.758 billion in 2050 (49.8% of the world's population). Myopia would be considered an epidemic, especially in Asia, Europe and the Americas, where more than half of the population is expected to be affected.</p><p id="par0010" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Despite this perspective and the future need for refractive surgeons, the optimal environment for teaching corneal refractive procedures remains controversial and scarce. Should corneal refractive surgery be taught during residency and fellowship programmes? The main reasons against this concept are patient reluctance to accept a lower level of surgeon experience for a fee-based elective procedure and the potential complications that can occur during the learning curve that can lead to irreversible vision loss in healthy eyes.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0010"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">2</span></a> However, Randleman and Stulting pointed out that the technical aspects of refractive surgery training are the least challenging in the whole learning process. Preoperative assessment, recognition and management of postoperative complications as well as understanding and managing patient expectations are the critical aspects of learning the principles of refractive surgery. Therefore, the answer to the above question is an unequivocal “yes”.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0015"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">3</span></a></p><p id="par0015" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">However, only 54% of residency programmes in the United States stated that trainee surgeons performed a corneal refractive surgery.

One eye had more than 1.00 D of astigmatism at the end of the follow-up period. The stability of the SE at 2 weeks, 1, 3, 3, 6 and 12 months is shown in <a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#fig0005">Fig. 1</a>E. Refractive astigmatism was less than 0.50 D in 85 eyes (85%) and less than 0.75 in 98% of eyes (<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#fig0005">Fig. 1</a>F).</p><p id="par0090" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Major complications occurred in one eye with macrostriae that were treated on the first postoperative day with repositioning of the flap without further clinical or visual sequelae. In the early postoperative period, micro-stretch marks were detected in 8 eyes (8%) and remnants of the interocular space in 9 eyes (9%). However, these complications had no significant effect on visual acuity. Mild diffuse diffuse lamellar keratitis was reported in 5 eyes (5%) without compromising results. Topical steroids resolved said inflammatory conditions during the first postoperative month. No epithelial growths were detected in the interocular layer and no defective epithelium was detected.</p><p id="par0095" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">With respect to the 5 questions devised by the author, 33 patients (66%) responded that they had great confidence in the fellowship trainee surgeon who performed the surgery, 9 patients (18%) felt completely confident and 8 patients (16%) felt somewhat confident (<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#fig0010">Fig. 2</a>). Thirty-six patients (72%) were completely satisfied with the preoperative explanations, the resolution of doubts, the surgery and the postoperative process and 14 patients (28%) were very satisfied (<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#fig0015">Fig. 3</a>). When asked about the degree of satisfaction with postoperative visual acuity, 86% (43 out of 50) of the patients were completely satisfied and 7 patients (14%) were very satisfied (<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#fig0020">Fig. 4</a>). Regarding the last 2 dichotomous questions, 49 patients (98%) would recommend surgery with a fellowship trainee and all our cases would repeat the same refractive surgery experience with the same surgeon.</p><elsevierMultimedia ident="fig0010"></elsevierMultimedia><elsevierMultimedia ident="fig0015"></elsevierMultimedia><elsevierMultimedia ident="fig0020"></elsevierMultimedia></span><span id="sec0040" class="elsevierStyleSection elsevierViewall"><span class="elsevierStyleSectionTitle" id="sect0100">Discussion</span><p id="par0100" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Corneal refractive surgery is probably the most demanding ophthalmological procedure in terms of patient expectations of visual outcomes. In addition, it is a procedure of choice and payment. These are the main reasons why patients are generally reluctant to accept a novice surgeon.</p><p id="par0105" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">In addition, training in refractive surgery is rare through residency programmes. In the United States, 76% of residents have not performed any refractive surgery during their ophthalmology training. In Spain, the first author’s country, 2 clinics provide such training in refractive surgery. In Mexico, refractive surgery is present in almost all resident programmes with the technology, most of them in the private training hospital setting. The evidence supporting the fact that refractive surgery during residency is scarce is the low number of published articles addressing this topic. The majority of publications are from the United States,<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs" href="#bib0030"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">6–10</span></a> except for one that took place in Saudi Arabia.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0055"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">11</span></a> Therefore, this is the first time that visual and refractive outcomes obtained in a Latin American hospital by a corneal fellowship trainee surgeon are reported.</p><p id="par0110" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">The results presented in this study are similar to those using the femtosecond laser for flap creation, and are better than studies using the microkeratome. In the femtosecond group of studies, Nehls et al.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0030"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">6</span></a> published a NCVA of 20/20 or better in 84.5% of cases and Weber et al.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0045"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">9</span></a> of 85.7%, which is close to the 87% obtained in this work. In contrast, in the microkeratome group of studies, the results are not better compared to Bowers et al.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0035"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">7</span></a> who obtained 77% of their patients with 20/20 or better. The results were even worse in the studies of LeBoyer et al. and Al-Swailem and Wagoner, where only 50% of patients achieved a visual acuity of 20/20.</p><p id="par0115" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">The femtosecond laser has not only been shown to achieve better results for fellowship trainees and corneal residents, but also appears to be a preferable option for patients. In one of the 5 satisfaction questions proposed by Nelhs et al., 68% of patients responded that it was very important and 29% somewhat important that a laser performed all steps of the surgery instead of a blade.</p><p id="par0120" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">When comparing complication rates, the femtosecond laser demonstrated a higher safety profile during the surgeon training period. Complications in this work were not critical to the final outcome, and the eye with macrostriae had a satisfactory recovery after reintervention. As reported by Shtein et al.,<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0050"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">10</span></a> the femtosecond laser is more predictable, reliable and safer than the microkeratome and provides greater accuracy and reproducibility in flap creation, fewer complications and better flap adhesion.</p><p id="par0125" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">The visual and refractive outcomes obtained by trainee surgeons compared to experienced surgeons are very similar. In fact, in the only study comparing outcomes in both groups of surgeons using femtosecond lasers, Shtein et al.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0050"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">10</span></a> conclude that there are no clinical or statistical differences in visual acuity outcomes. Finally, with regard to patient satisfaction, 83% of patients in the study by Nehls et al.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0030"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">6</span></a> and 84% in the present work had a great deal or complete confidence in the fellowship trainee surgeon performing the surgery. Satisfaction was also measured by the high percentage of patients who would refer other patients to a fellowship trainee surgeon (85% in the Nehls et al. study and 98% in the present study).</p><p id="par0130" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">This study is the first of its kind in a Latin American hospital showing good clinical outcomes and patient satisfaction. The main difference between the present study and other studies on this subject is that in our study the results of a single surgeon were analysed. This avoids the surgeon bias that may exist in other articles. However, the results presented here support the fact that well-trained surgeons can obtain results as good as those of experienced surgeons using a femtosecond laser for flap creation. These findings may persuade training hospitals to implement safe and effective refractive surgery training programmes. As Randleman and Stulting<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0015"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">3</span></a> pointed out, making refractive surgical education an essential part of all ophthalmology residency programmes is one of the foundations for the future.</p></span><span id="sec0045" class="elsevierStyleSection elsevierViewall"><span class="elsevierStyleSectionTitle" id="sect0105">Funding</span><p id="par0135" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">This research has not received specific support from public sector agencies, the commercial sector or non-profit organisations.</p></span><span id="sec0050" class="elsevierStyleSection elsevierViewall"><span class="elsevierStyleSectionTitle" id="sect0110">Conflict of interest</span><p id="par0140" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">No conflict of interest was declared by the authors in relation to this article.</p></span></span>" "textoCompletoSecciones" => array:1 [ "secciones" => array:10 [ 0 => array:3 [ "identificador" => "xres1545871" "titulo" => "Abstract" "secciones" => array:4 [ 0 => array:2 [ "identificador" => "abst0005" "titulo" => "Purpose" ] 1 => array:2 [ "identificador" => "abst0010" "titulo" => "Methods" ] 2 => array:2 [ "identificador" => "abst0015" "titulo" => "Results" ] 3 => array:2 [ "identificador" => "abst0020" "titulo" => "Conclusions" ] ] ] 1 => array:2 [ "identificador" => "xpalclavsec1397206" "titulo" => "Keywords" ] 2 => array:3 [ "identificador" => "xres1545872" "titulo" => "Resumen" "secciones" => array:4 [ 0 => array:2 [ "identificador" => "abst0025" "titulo" => "Objetivo" ] 1 => array:2 [ "identificador" => "abst0030" "titulo" => "Métodos" ] 2 => array:2 [ "identificador" => "abst0035" "titulo" => "Resultados" ] 3 => array:2 [ "identificador" => "abst0040" "titulo" => "Conclusiones" ] ] ] 3 => array:2 [ "identificador" => "xpalclavsec1397205" "titulo" => "Palabras clave" ] 4 => array:3 [ "identificador" => "sec0005" "titulo" => "Material and methods" "secciones" => array:5 [ 0 => array:2 [ "identificador" => "sec0010" "titulo" => "Inclusion criteria" ] 1 => array:2 [ "identificador" => "sec0015" "titulo" => "Exclusion criteria" ] 2 => array:2 [ "identificador" => "sec0020" "titulo" => "Pre-operative assessment" ] 3 => array:2 [ "identificador" => "sec0025" "titulo" => "Surgical technique and post-operative care" ] 4 => array:2 [ "identificador" => "sec0030" "titulo" => "Variables studied" ] ] ] 5 => array:2 [ "identificador" => "sec0035" "titulo" => "Results" ] 6 => array:2 [ "identificador" => "sec0040" "titulo" => "Discussion" ] 7 => array:2 [ "identificador" => "sec0045" "titulo" => "Funding" ] 8 => array:2 [ "identificador" => "sec0050" "titulo" => "Conflict of interest" ] 9 => array:1 [ "titulo" => "References" ] ] ] "pdfFichero" => "main.pdf" "tienePdf" => true "fechaRecibido" => "2020-04-27" "fechaAceptado" => "2020-10-14" "PalabrasClave" => array:2 [ "en" => array:1 [ 0 => array:4 [ "clase" => "keyword" "titulo" => "Keywords" "identificador" => "xpalclavsec1397206" "palabras" => array:4 [ 0 => "Refractive surgery training" 1 => "Refractive surgery fellowship" 2 => "Femto-LASIK" 3 => "LASIK outcomes" ] ] ] "es" => array:1 [ 0 => array:4 [ "clase" => "keyword" "titulo" => "Palabras clave" "identificador" => "xpalclavsec1397205" "palabras" => array:4 [ 0 => "Formación en cirugía refractiva" 1 => "Fellowship en cirugía refractiva" 2 => "Femto-LASIK" 3 => "Resultado de LASIK" ] ] ] ] "tieneResumen" => true "resumen" => array:2 [ "en" => array:3 [ "titulo" => "Abstract" "resumen" => "<span id="abst0005" class="elsevierStyleSection elsevierViewall"><span class="elsevierStyleSectionTitle" id="sect0010">Purpose</span><p id="spar0030" class="elsevierStyleSimplePara elsevierViewall">To report, for the first time, the clinical outcomes and patient satisfaction of laser refractive surgery performed by a trainee during a corneal and refractive surgery fellowship program in Latin America.</p></span> <span id="abst0010" class="elsevierStyleSection elsevierViewall"><span class="elsevierStyleSectionTitle" id="sect0015">Methods</span><p id="spar0035" class="elsevierStyleSimplePara elsevierViewall">This prospective and interventionist study reviewed the clinical charts of the first 100 consecutive refractive surgery cases performed by a single Cornea Fellowship trainee between March 2018 and June 2018 in the Blindness Prevention Association of Mexico (Asociación para Evitar la Ceguera en Mexico).
