Popis: | Purpose To compare the effects of femtosecond laser assisted cataract surgery (FLACS) and manual phacoemulsification on cumulative dissipated energy (CDE), torsional amplitude, and endothelial cell density (ECD). Patients and Methods This prospective, randomized study was conducted at Oka Eye Clinic (Fukuoka, Japan). Surgeries were performed using FLACS (with LenSx) or conventional technique in adults ≥20 years with grade 2–4 cataracts. Visits included preoperative, surgery day, and 5 postoperative visits (days 1, 4–10, 20–40, 60–120, and 150–210). Primary endpoint was CDE. Secondary endpoints included ECD percent change at day 150–210 versus preoperative visit and average torsional amplitude on surgery day. Exploratory endpoints included central corneal thickness and corrected distance visual acuity (CDVA). Superiority of FLACS to conventional technique was evaluated using t-tests based on a mixed model for repeated measures. Results Full analysis set included 53 eyes per group. Mean cataract grade was 2.92±0.58 in FLACS and 2.94±0.57 in conventional group. FLACS versus conventional method had significantly lower mean CDE (0.213±0.334 versus 1.718±0.898%-seconds, respectively; P Video Abstract Point your SmartPhone at the code above.
