Patients with refractive error or large astigmatism who have inconsistent refractive error in both eyes.  6, Corneal thickness: generally greater than 450 mm. 7, Eye examination without active, organic lesions; or original external eye or ocular surface disease (blepharitis, dry eye, allergy) has been controlled.  8.Healthy, or pre-existing connective tissue disease or autoimmune disease that has been satisfactorily controlled.  9, Re-operators: LASIK: 3~6 months interval, preferably more than 1 year; PRK: preferably more than 1 year interval; RK: preferably more than 2 years interval.  10, residual refractive error after corneal transplantation: should be more than 1 year after surgery, six months after removal of sutures refractive stability.  11, psychological factors: the patient himself has a healthy psychological state, can fully understand and can accept the possible complications of surgery.
