General Inclusion Criteria * Subjects have to be at least 18 years of age. * Subjects have to be able to read, understand, and sign a statement of Informed Consent. * Subjects have to be willing and able to return for scheduled follow-up examinations for up to 6 and 12 months respectively after surgery. * Corneal topography should be qualified * High contrast, manifest, best spectacle-corrected distance visual acuity correctable binocular to at least 1.0 (Snellen 20/20 or 6/6) and monocular to at least 0.8 (Snellen 20/25 or 6/7.5). In case of a monocular surgery the eye which should not be treated must have a best corrected distance visual acuity of at least 0.8 (Snellen 20/25 or 6/7.5). * Mesopic pupil size measured with the Zywave II WaveFront Aberrometer must be \< 7.0 mm and photopic pupil size measured with the Orbscan II/ IIz must be \> 2.9 mm. Additional Inclusion Criteria for Proscan Treatments * For Proscan myopic subjects require a sphere between -0.5 D up to -10.0 D and cylinder between -0.5 D up to -4.0 D (not corneal astigmatism) and SE up to -12.0 D * For Proscan hyperopic subjects require a sphere between +0.5 D up to +4.0 D and cylinder between +0.5 D up to +4.0 D (not corneal astigmatism) and SE up to +6.0 D. Additional Inclusion Criteria for Zyoptix Treatments For Zyoptix myopic subjects require a sphere between -0.5 D up to -10.0 D and cylinder between -0.5 D up to -4.0 D (not corneal astigmatism) and SE up to -12.0 D * For Zyoptix hyperopic subjects …

Questions worth asking your doctor

Bring these to your next appointment. They're a starting point for a shared conversation — not a sign you qualify or a recommendation to enrol.

1Based on my diagnosis and history, is this trial worth exploring for me — or is there a standard treatment we should try first?
2What does this trial's phase tell us about how much is already known about its safety and benefit?
3What would taking part actually involve for me — visits, tests, time, and travel?
4What are the known and possible risks or side effects I should weigh, and how would they be monitored?
5If this trial isn't the right fit, what other options or trials would you suggest I look into?

Generated to help you prepare — always confirm anything about your own eligibility and care with the study team and your doctor.

Questions for the trial coordinator

The trial coordinator is the person who runs the study day to day. These cover the practical side — logistics, costs, and what taking part would actually mean for your life. The study team confirms whether you meet the criteria; these are questions to ask, not a sign you qualify.

1What does taking part actually involve week to week — how many visits, where, and how long does each one take?
2What costs are covered by the study, and what might I have to pay for myself, including travel, parking, or time off work?
3What happens during screening, and what happens if the study team confirms I don't meet the criteria after those tests?
4Who pays for the scans, blood work, and other tests the trial requires — the study, my insurance, or me?
5How will being in the trial affect my regular care, and will my own doctor stay informed and involved?
6Can I leave the trial at any point if I change my mind, and what would happen to my care if I do?

A starting point for the conversation — always confirm anything about your own eligibility, costs, and care with the study team and your doctor.

What they're measuring

For Proscan and Zyoptix: - The percentage of treated eyes within +/- 0.50D of target refraction. For Supracor: - The percentage of treated eyes with a best corrected high contrast distance VA of Snellen 20/25 (6/7.5 or 0.1 logMAR) or better

Timeframe: Myopia: 6 months, Hyperopia 12 months
