Popis: Purpose The aim of this study was to compare the thickness and side-cut angle of corneal flap in candidates undergoing laser-assisted in situ keratomileusis using sub-Bowman keratomileusis (SBK) microkeratome, femtosecond (FS) laser, or Moria M2 microkeratome (MK). Patients and methods This prospective clinical study included 60 eyes of 30 patients. They were divided into three groups (20 eyes in each group). The study was conducted from January 2019 till December 2019. Corneal flaps were created using Moria SBK microkeratome, Alcon Wavelight FS-200 FS laser, or Moria MK. Heidelberg anterior segment optical coherence tomography was done 1 month postoperatively to assess the central flap thickness and side-cut angle. Results The mean error cut angle was −39.00±19.00, 24.75±12.56, and −25.65±10.31° in the SBK, FS, and MK groups, respectively (P
