Adding femtosecond technology to your cataract surgery suite is a major commitment. Technology, maintenance, supplies, staffing and training are all major considerations that can come in to play when selecting a femto platform and crafting an implementation plan.
Since 2013, we have performed over 70,000 femtosecond laser-assisted cataract surgery cases and learned a variety of lessons about successful implementations along the way.
A research team composed of scientists from the Philippines, United Kingdom, and the United States found that – compared to manual clear corneal incisions (CCI) – femtosecond laser-constructed incisions achieve better wound sealability, a quality that may reduce the risk of surgical complications.
