Abstract

Since the introduction of femtosecond laser (FS) systems for corneal flap creation in laser-assisted in-situ keratomileusis there have been numerous applications for FS laser in corneal surgery. This manuscript details the utility of FS lasers in corneal surgical procedures including refractive laser surgeries, intracorneal ring segment tunnels, presbyopic treatments, and FS-assisted keratoplasty. We also review the role of FS lasers in diagnostic procedures such as two photon excitation fluorescence and second harmonic generation.
