Analysis of the capsule edge after Fugo plasma blade capsulotomy, continuous curvilinear capsulorhexis, and can-opener capsulotomy

Abstract

Although performance of an anterior capsulotomy with the Fugo blade was associated with some margin irregularities, the geometry of the centrally directed tags prevented them from becoming the site of radial tear formation. The base of the capsulotomy performed with the Fugo blade appeared to be almost as smooth and regular as in the CCC under SEM evaluation.
