By A. John Kanellopoulos, MD; George Asimellis, PhD
Annual Meeting 2013
Cataract/Anterior Segment
This video reviews the safety and efficacy of all-laser surgery cataract surgery, which uses significantly less energy than standard phacoemulsification and risks no thermal exposure. Corneal incisions, capsulorrhexis, and lens fragmentation were performed with the LenSx femtosecond laser. The Cetus nanolaser probe was used to fragment and remove the lens quadrants within the anterior chamber.
