Purpose: To compare the effectiveness of femtosecond laser-assisted cataract surgery (FLACS) and conventional phacoemulsification cataract surgery (CPS) by resident surgeons. Setting: Parkland Memorial Health and Hospital System, Dallas, Texas, U.S.A. Design: Prospective randomized study. Methods: All ...

Purpose: To describe techniques (FLEx and SMILE) for performing all-in-one Femtosecond Laser Refractive Surgery, without using an excimer laser.Methods: The VisuMax femtosecond laser is used to carve out a refractive lenticule from within the corneal stroma, and then the lenticule is physically re...
laser surgery and traditional filtering surgery such as tube shunts and trabeculectomies. Surgical practice patterns in the US now reflect an increase in microinvasive glaucoma surgery (MIGS) as an option for glaucoma management [1]. MIGS is an alternative to traditional glaucoma surgeries predicate...
Our results confirm the results of previous investigations reporting a reduction of MPOD after cataract surgery.17,18 In recent study Gultekin et al21 stated that MPOD levels significantly decrease in pseudophakic eyes operated with traditional phacoemulsification technique while duration of postoperative ...
barrier immediately after cataract surgery was related to the type of surgery, systemic diseases, incision size, bubble formation, and the mechanical trauma to the uveal tissues.2,15–18 Abell et al19 demonstrated that lower anterior segment inflammation was observed in FLACS versus manual surgery....
OCT-guided fs laser system has been developed to improve precision and reproducibility of cataract surgery. Capsular strength after laser capsulotomy was nearly twice stronger than after manual capsulorhexis: 124mN vs. 66mN. Average deviation from intended size in laser capsulotomy was eight times ...
