    Area of Science:

    • Ophthalmology
    • Laser Surgery
    • Cataract Treatment

    Background:

    • Cataract surgery is a common procedure to restore vision.
    • Femtosecond lasers offer enhanced precision in ophthalmic surgery.
    • The Alcon LenSx femtosecond laser system is utilized for cataract procedures.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To evaluate the benefits of femtosecond laser-assisted cataract surgery using the Alcon LenSx system.
    • To assess the precision and outcomes of laser-performed capsulorhexis, corneal incisions, and nucleus fragmentation.

    Main Methods:

    • Fifty eyes underwent femtosecond laser-assisted cataract surgery with the LenSx system.
    • Laser programmed for capsulorhexis, main corneal incision, and side-port incisions.
    • Nucleus fragmentation utilized hybrid or cylinder patterns; phacoemulsification and cortex aspiration performed with Alcon Centurion Vision System.

    Main Results:

    • 96% of capsulotomies were continuous and centered; 98% of corneal incisions were self-sealing.
    • Laser capsulotomy ensured complete overlap of the anterior capsule over the IOL.
    • Nucleus fragmentation was effective, with minor issues in white or traumatic cataracts.

    Conclusions:

    • Femtosecond laser cataract surgery provides standardized corneal incisions and precise, centered capsulorhexis.
    • Effective lens nucleus fragmentation is achieved, even in dense cataracts.
    • Real-time OCT software enhances laser precision throughout the anterior segment.
