How does the capsulotomy rim compare to manual and FLACS?

/in /by

The “rolled-over” characteristic of the edge created by CAPSULaser generates a strong capsulotomy that is resistant to tearing.

  • Preclinical studies on human cadaver eyes at SERI (Singapore Eye Research Institute) have demonstrated that the capsulotomy rim strength is at least equivalent to manual and FLACS.
  • The mechanism of action of the laser on the capsule enhances its elasticity and preclinical studies have shown that the capsulotomy can be extended from 5 to 12 mm without tearing.
