Abstract
FLACS pretreatment resulted in a decrease in CDE and less endothelial cell loss when compared to standard phacoemulsification. The decrease in endothelial cell loss was more prominent in the denser cataract group; thus, FLACS may be most beneficial in those cases. There was no significant difference in results between the two laser platforms. [J Refract Surg. 2017;33(10):708-712.].This publication has 14 references indexed in Scilit:
