AIM: To evaluate safety, efficacy, visual quality, and patient satisfaction after optimized monovision Q-value-customized femtosecond laser-assisted in situ keratomileusis(FS-LASIK)for myopia, astigmatism, and presbyopia. METHODS: This prospective study enrolled patients suffering myopia, astigmatism, and presbyopia. At 1 y post operation, uncorrected distance, intermediate and near visual acuity(UDVA, UIVA, UNVA), refraction, corneal higher order aberrations(HOAs), Q value, objective visual quality, and near stereoacuity were evaluated. The impact of surgery on patients' living quality and their satisfaction were evaluated based on National Eye Institute Refractive Error Quality of Life Instrument(NEI RQL)scores at 1-year follow-up.RESULTS:The study enrolled 36 patients(72 eyes)including 12 males(33%)and 24 females(67%)with an average age of 46.03±3.60(range 40-53)y. One year postoperatively, 97% of patients achieved binocular UDVA of 1.0 or better, 89% achieved UIVA of 0.63 or better, and 97% achieved UNVA of 1.0 or better. The spherical equivalent refraction(SE)in dominant eye within ±1.00 D was 100%. SE in non-dominant eyes was uncorrected compared with the preoperative target correction, with a mean difference of -0.27±0.34 D before and after surgery(P<0.001). while in the non-dominant eyes, the anterior corneal Q-value within the 5 mm zone increased negatively compared with the preoperative value(-0.33±0.24 vs -0.21±0.09, P<0.001). In the non-dominant eye, spherical aberration and longitudinal spherical aberration were lower than preoperative values(both P<0.001). Besides, there were no significant changes in objective scatter index(OSI), modulation transfer function cutoff frequency(MTF cut off)and Strehl ratio(SR)in both dominant and non-dominant eyes(all P>0.05), and the near stereoacuity was better after surgery(P=0.007). Additionally, the patient satisfaction rate with the surgery was 94%, the satisfaction rates for UDVA and UNVA were both 98%. The 11% of patients required to wear low-diopter glasses when driving at night.CONCLUSION:Optimized monovision Q-value-customised FS-LASIK is a safe and effective procedure for correcting myopia, astigmatism, and presbyopia. It provides favorable subjective and objective visual quality and high patient satisfaction. The under correction in non-dominant eyes is observed, indicating the further optimization of nomogram is needed.

Objective:To understand the prevalence of frailty and the importance of its influencing factors in adult population in Shaanxi Province.Methods:The data were from Shaanxi baseline survey of natural population cohort study in northwest China during 2018-2019. The frailty index (FI) was constructed to evaluate the frailty status of the population, and XGboost model combined with Shapley method was used to analyze the importance of the sociodemographic and life behavior factors affecting the prevalence of frailty by gender and age.Results:A total of 25 079 subjects were included, in whom 964 (3.8%) had frailty, and there was no significant difference in the overall prevalence of frailty between women (3.9%) and men (3.8%) ( P=0.629), but there was a gender specific difference in the distribution of FI ( P<0.001), and the proportion of the pre-frailty in men was higher than that in women. The prevalence of frailty increased with age ( P<0.001), the prevalence of frailty were 1.3%, 2.5% and 7.8% in young, middle-aged and elderly women, respectively, and 1.9%, 2.7% and 5.5% in young, middle-aged and elderly men, respectively. Sociodemographic characteristics and lifestyle patterns were both influencing factors for the prevalence of frailty, but their importance varied with gender and age. The top five contributing factors were education level, staying up late, annual family income level, sedentary time and marital status in young women, and staying up late, smoking, annual family income level, sedentary time and drinking in young men. The top five contributing factors were education level, annual family income level, passive exposure to smoking, staying up late, and sedentary time in middle-aged women, and annual family income level, education level, sedentary time, staying up late and drinking in middle-aged men. The top five contributing factors were annual family income level, passive exposure to smoking, sedentary time, marital status, and smartphone use in elderly women, and education level, annual family income level, smoking, smartphone use and sedentary time in elderly men. Conclusions:There are gender specific differences in the distribution of FI in Shaanxi. The prevalence of frailty increased with age, but young and middle-aged people also have frailty risk. The prevalence of frailty in young men was mainly related to unhealthy life behaviors, such as staying up late, smoking, sedentary behavior and drinking, while the prevalence of frailty in middle-aged and elderly men and women were more affected by sociodemographic factors, such as education level, economic status and marital status.
