AbstractFemtosecond laser-assisted cataract surgery (FLACS) is a useful technology for anterior segment surgery that creates cleavage planes via photodisruption of ocular tissue. Compared to conventional cataract surgery, FLACS has been thought to potentially improve surgical precision, accuracy, and reproducibility. Its introduction into cataract surgery has enabled the development of new techniques and has been purported to be potentially beneficial in improving surgical safety and providing quicker visual rehabilitation. The purpose of this article is to describe a technique for cataract surgery using a femtosecond laser (FSL) to reduce the amount of pressure exerted on the cataract nucleus and the need for lens manipulation. This technique seeks to minimize the risk of posterior capsular rupture and zonular weakness. However, further comparative studies are required to investigate this. |
