PURPOSE: A prospective, multicenter, clinical study to evaluate a standardized surgical (Genesis) protocol which includes combined-technique radial incisions in patients seeking reduction of their physiologic myopia. The combined incisions were designed to incorporate the safety of the centrifugal incision technique with the efficacy of the centripetal incision technique. METHODS: A total of 375 eyes undergoing radial keratotomy procedures performed in six different clinical centers were analyzed. All procedures were performed in accordance with the Genesis nomograms.
