IntroductionCorneal refractive surgery has a rich history of novel procedures and nomenclature. For longstanding stalwarts such as photorefractive keratectomy (PRK) and laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK), the naming conventions were firmly established from the first publications on these approaches, in 1998 and 1990. For refractive lenticule extraction procedures, however, the development of nomenclature has been more evolutionary than revolutionary.
