Abstract:
Femtosecond laser is mainly used in corneal refractive surgery.In recent years,the progress of the entire process of femtosecond laser makes a dramatic change and development of corneal refractive surgery.Photoinduced decomposition of femtosecond laser can ionize human tissue and accurately carry out intratissue cutting with less influence for the outside area of target site.So it is proved to have a high safety in clinical application.Femtosecond laser-assisted cataract surgery and lens refractive surgery is going to be a new stage in ophthalmology,and its application in cataract extraction includes the cutting of clear corneal incision and anterior capsula of lens as well as cutting up of lens nuclei.The advancement of femtosecond laser in lens refractive surgery mainly is the correction of presbyopia.The progress of femtosecond laser in lens surgery was summarized.
