摘要：
In accordance with the present invention, a system and method are provided for removing the corneal epithelium from a patients eye while monitoring the autofluorescent response that results during laser photoablation of the epithelial tissue. Structurally, the system includes a computer-controlled laser generating unit. Also, connected to the computer are a sensor for receiving the autofluorescent response, and an imaging unit for monitoring changes in the topography during a procedure. By monitoring both the autofluorescent response and changes in epithelial topography, the computer controls the laser unit. When there is no longer an autofluorescent response, the procedure has been completed and the system is shut down.
