Technique for shortening a long clear corneal incision.
An optimal clear corneal incision creates a self-sealing intrastomal tunnel. Variability in incision length may pose surgical difficulties for subsequent phacoemulsification. An incision that is too long may lead to challenges including decreased instrument mobility, decreased visibility due to corneal striae, stromal hydration, and a difficult angle of approach to the cataract. These sequelae ...
متن کاملEvaluation of femtosecond laser clear corneal incision: an experimental study.
PURPOSE To evaluate the changes of corneal topography following femtosecond laser and manual clear corneal incision (CCI). METHODS Inflation testing was performed in 14 human eye globes to evaluate the topographic response of the cornea to CCIs. In seven samples (femtosecond laser group), a 2.75-mm three-plane CCI was created using the iFS femtosecond laser (Abbott Medical Optics, Inc., Santa...
متن کاملFemtosecond laser versus manual clear corneal incision in cataract surgery.
PURPOSE To compare functional and morphological outcomes of femtosecond laser clear corneal incision (CCI) versus manual CCI during cataract surgery. METHODS Sixty eyes of 60 patients who underwent CCI during cataract surgery were randomized into two groups: femtosecond laser CCI (30 eyes) and manual CCI (30 eyes). RESULTS There were no significant between-group differences in uncorrected d...
متن کاملThe Short Term Effects of a Single Limbal Relaxing Incision Combined with Clear Corneal Incision
PURPOSE To compare the effects of performing a single limbal relaxing incision (LRI) combined with a clear corneal incision on a corneal astigmatism with that of paired LRIs in cataract surgery. METHODS Medical records for 25 eyes in 20 patients who had undergone LRIs during cataract operations for with-the-rule astigmatism of 1.5 diopters (D) or more in topography were retrospectively review...
