White Intumescent Cataract

VIENNA — A two-step femtosecond laser-assisted technique offers a safe way of performing capsulotomy in intumescent cataract, avoiding intraoperative complications.

Excelling at femtosecond laser cataract surgery is a fast learning curve with the current intuitive system; however, to raise the performance with the technology, surgeons can customize their laser settings. The laser is a tool that is meant to make surgeons become more efficient and precise, but it can also create a less stressful surgery and make tough cases more routine.
