- Abstract
Femtosecond laser-assisted cataract surgery (FLACS) is a new chapter in the history of cataract surgery. The use of femtosecond laser allows automation of the main stages of operation such as capsulotomy, lens fragmentation and creation of corneal incisions; it improves predictability and safety of the procedure and improves refractive outcomes. This article analyzes advantages and disadvantages of the new technology based on literature data and authors' own experience.
