Outcomes of conventional phacoemulsification vs femtosecond laser–assisted cataract surgery in eyes with Fuchs endothelial corneal dystrophy
Journal of Cataract & Refractive Surgery May 20, 2018
Zhu DC, et al. -Authors sought to compare the outcomes in eyes with Fuchs endothelial corneal dystrophy after standard phacoemulsification with those of femtosecond laser-assisted cataract surgery. They reviewed the charts from patients diagnosed with Fuchs endothelial corneal dystrophy who had phacoemulsification cataract surgery at Bascom Palmer Eye Institute between January 1, 2014, and January 1, 2017. The rate of corneal decompensation in eyes with mild to moderate Fuchs endothelial corneal dystrophy was not lowered by femtosecond laser-assisted cataract surgery vs conventional phacoemulsification.
