We read with interest \"Topography-Guided Refractive Astigmatism Outcomes: Predictions Comparing Three Different Programming Methods.\"1 In the Manifest group, the calculated theoretical outcomes revealed an unexpectedly elevated postoperative refractive astigmatism average error of 0.56 ± 0.22 D.1 This large amount of theoretical postoperative cylinder was not replicated in a recent real-world clinical study by the same authors, comparing actual topography-guided LASIK outcomes in Phorcides versus manifest-treated eyes.2 The reported empirical postoperative astigmatism error average in the Manifest group was as low as 0.15 D, fourfold better than that reported in the current theoretical outcomes study.1
