Abstract:
AIM: To observe the morphology of corneal incision between femtosecond laser-assisted cataract surgery(FLACS)with 2.4mm micro-incision and conventional phacoemulsification cataract surgery(CPCS)with 2.4mm micro-incision, evaluating the safety and stability of the incision.
METHODS: This was a prospective controlled study. A total of 89 cataract patients(99 eyes)who underwent cataract surgery were collected. All patients were divided into two groups: 44 cases(49 eyes)in FLACS group and 45 cases(50 eyes)in CPCS group. Morphology of clear corneal incision was observed by OCTA postoperative.
RESULTS: There was no external wound dehiscence in FLACS group on 1d postoperative, while 10% patients had external wound dehiscence in CPCS group(P<0.05). There were no external wound dehiscence in both groups on 1wk, 1mo and 3mo postoperative. On 1wk and 1mo postoperative, the incidences of internal wound dehiscence in FLACS group(47% of 1wk and 10% of 1mo)were lower than that in CPCS group. There were statistically significant difference(68% of 1wk and 26% of 1mo)(P<0.05). On 1d and 3mo postoperative, there were no significant difference in internal wound dehiscence in both groups. There were no significant differences in descemet membrane detachment(DMD)in both groups.
CONCLUSION: Femtosecond laser-assisted cataract surgery(FLACS)is benefit for wound closure and reducing abnormal incision construction.
