Combined Carbon Dioxide Laser Lateral Canthotomy and Femtosecond Laser-Assisted Cataract Surgery
Purpose: The purpose of this study was to evaluate a new procedure aimed at lengthening the palpebral fissure to facilitate femtosecond laser-assisted cataract surgery in patients with small eyes. Method: A quick procedure using the CO2 laser was adapted for patients with small eyes undergoing laser-assisted cataract surgery using the Catalys system. The UniPulse CO2 laser (Nidek) was used for ...
متن کاملFemtosecond laser-assisted cataract surgery.
Femtosecond laser-assisted cataract surgery provides surgeons an exciting new option to potentially improve patient outcomes and safety. Over the past 2 years, 4 unique laser platforms have been introduced into the marketplace. The introduction of this new technology has been accompanied by a host of new clinical, logistical, and financial challenges for surgeons. This article describes the evo...
متن کاملFemtosecond laser cataract surgery
Femtosecond laser (FSL) cataract surgery is in its infancy but is rapidly gaining popularity due to the improved consistency and predictability for corneal incisions and anterior capsulorhexis. It enables subsequently less phacoemulsification energy and time to be employed, which has gains in terms of reduced corneal oedema. In addition, the FSL allows better circularity of the anterior capsulo...
متن کاملFemtosecond Laser Cataract Surgery
Cataract surgery with intraocular lens (IOL) implantation is the most common ophthalmic surgical procedure worldwide. It is also the most common operation for correction of refractive errors, performed over five times more frequently than corneal refractive procedures. In developed countries, phacoemulsification is the predominant form of cataract surgery, accounting for more than 90% of all op...
متن کاملFemtosecond Laser Cataract Surgery
Today, with the use of small incisions and foldable intraocular lenses (IOLs), cataract extraction has become a safer and more effective surgery. However, despite the many advances over the years, the current state of cataract surgery still has safety concerns and refractive limitations. Complications such as endophthalmitis, posterior capsule rupture and cystoid macular edema still arise. The ...
