Intraocular Lens Tilt and Decentration Measured By Scheimpflug Camera Following Manual or Femtosecond Laser–created Continuous Circular Capsulotomy

Abstract

Continuous curvilinear capsulorrhexis created with a femtosecond laser resulted in a more stable refractive result and less IOL tilt and decentration than manual CCC.

Anterior capsule integrity after femtosecond laser–assisted cataract surgery

“…[1][2][3] The increasing use of presbyopia-correcting and toric intraocular lenses (IOLs) has focused attention on the quality of the capsulotomy because these IOLs require optimum centration to maximize the desired refractive and optical result.…”

Femtosecond Laser-Assisted Cataract Surgery: Review

“…FSL grubunda ön kapsül daireselliği istatistiksel açıdan anlamlı olarak daha iyi bulunurken (p=0,032); manuel yapılan reksiste yetersiz kapsül lens örtüşmesi anlamlı olarak yüksek bulunmuştur (%11'e karşı %28, p=0,033). 16 Ancak bazı durumlarda FSL ile yapılan kapsü-loreksis tam açılamamakta, manuel olarak tamamlanması gerekmektedir.…”

Femtosecond Laser-assisted Cataract Surgery

“…FLACS is also associated with less lens tilt, 27,28 and fewer internal aberrations, 28 which may result in improved optical quality therefore improving postoperative visual acuity and quality of vision. 28 Tilting of the lens induces a considerable amount of ocular coma-like aberrations.…”
