Summary

Introduction

Femtosecond lasers have been used in cataract surgery for the capsulotomy, lens fragmentation and corneal incisions. The safety of femtosecond laser technology has been demonstrated in pre-clinical animal experiments as well as in clinical investigations [1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8]. Many studies have shown that the reduction in the amount of ultrasound energy from the phacoemulsification probe can diminish the risk of corneal We designed our prospective study to report on reduction in ultrasound energy and in groupings by LOCS III grading [12]
