A microkeratome cutting head assembly 10. A cutting blade 14 of the assembly 10 has a nominal length and presents a forward cutting edge 22. An applanation member 12 for applanating a cornea of an eye includes a trailing portion 18 having a curved section presenting an apex 20. The forward cutting edge 22 of the cutting blade 14 of the nominal length is positioned relative to the apex 20 so that together the forward cutting edge 22 and the apex 20 define a desired thickness of a flap 50 to be created from the cornea 48 such that the flap 50 is essentially not compressed. |
