NEW YORK — Ophthalmologists who are comfortable with femtosecond laser-assisted cataract surgery should consider using the technology on white cataract cases, according to a speaker here.
When using femtosecond laser-assisted laser cataract surgery (FLACS) in a white cataract case, it is helpful to create a controlled environment, Preeya K. Gupta, MD, said at OSN New York.
“Creating that controlled environment is key,” Gupta said. “Putting in a heavier viscoelastic and maintaining that anterior chamber pressure to flatten the capsule is just very critical.”
