Abstract

One of the advantages of femtolaser assisted cataract surgery is that it is possible to perform arcuate corneal incisions to correct corneal astigmatism at single-step operation, especially in cases where the implantation of a toric intraocular lens is not planned. The paper shows 2 clinical cases of performing arcuate incisions using femtolaser to correct corneal astigmatism simultaneously with cataract and glaucoma surgery, as well as with anterior chamber reconstruction. Femtolaser arcuate keratotomy with simultaneous phacoemulsification in non-standard clinical cases is effective and provides advantages in an alternative method of treatment before a toric intraocular lens.

Keywords

femtolaser arcuate keratotomy, corneal astigmatism, cataract, glaucoma, intraocular lens dislocation.
