A system ( 20 ) for making a consistent and uniformly thick resection of the cornea includes a plurality of microkeratomes ( 22 ) individually and interchangeably connectable to a controller ( 24 ). Each microkeratome ( 22 ) has a base that mounts on an eye, a cutting blade that having a cutting edge and an applanator spaced above the cutting edge of the cutting blade. The base has an aperture for receiving an eye therethrough. The microkeratomes ( 22 ) have a different size apertures or different blade gap distances between the cutting edge and a bottom of the applanator. The microkeratome ( 22 ) is mostly made of plastic, which allows the microkeratome to be used when wet, improving the operation of the microkeratome.
