EVERY SAFE SURGERY BEGINS WITH A VERIFIED PLAN.

RLES AI plans all six refractive laser procedures — SMILE, LASIK, iLASIK, Q-LASIK, PRK and T-PRK — testing every plan against procedure-specific safety floors and the published nomograms of your own devices, and returns a signature-ready PDF report in minutes.

THE TISSUE BUDGET, DONE PROPERLY

Every plan is built on three independent pillars: PTA (percent tissue altered)^[1] with a Kmax-dependent ceiling — the steeper the cornea, the tighter the limit; RSB (residual stromal bed) with floors specific to each procedure family, because LASIK, lenticule extraction and surface ablation do not share the same biomechanics; and RCT (residual corneal thickness), controlled independently of the flap, because no blade choice can repair an RCT violation — only reducing ablation can. Residual bed thickness, pre-operative corneal thickness, patient age and topographic abnormality are all factors in published ectasia risk models.^[2]

• Measured ablation-depth tables per optical zone — not just the Munnerlyn approximation^[3]
• Optical-zone alternatives presented with their trade-offs, so the surgeon sees the cost of every choice
• Flap and cap thickness menus restricted to what the registered device can actually cut

POST-OP KERATOMETRY — THE FORGOTTEN LIMIT

Tissue can be sufficient while the optics are not. RLES AI estimates the expected post-operative keratometry per meridian and applies a Min–Max K planning window. Keratometry outside this range has been associated with reduced optical quality and may increase the risk of unfavourable visual outcomes — excessive flattening with optical degradation and ocular-surface symptoms, excessive steepening with a topographic picture that can resemble keratoconus. From this window the system computes the maximum treatable correction of every individual cornea — a number most planning software never shows.

YOUR DEVICES, YOUR NOMOGRAMS

Register your excimer laser, microkeratome or femtosecond platform once. From then on every plan applies that device's published tables — ring and vacuum selection, blade options, ablation-zone geometry — and values are never substituted from another machine. Missing data is never assumed normal: the report names exactly what is missing.
