Femtosecond Laser-Assisted Cataract Surgery Without OVD: A Prospective Intraindividual Comparison

Abstract

Femtosecond laser-assisted treatment allows the cataract surgeon to perform phacoemulsification and intraocular lens implantation without the use of OVD at no additional risk to the corneal endothelium. Furthermore, there was a tendency toward fewer increases in intraocular pressure in patients treated with the femtosecond laser.
