Vasavada VA, et al. - Femtosecond laser–assisted cataract surgery (FLACS) was compared with conventional phacoemulsification in eyes with a shallow anterior chamber (AC) regarding intraoperative performance and postoperative outcomes. Randomization of patients undergoing cataract surgery with a shallow AC (<2.5 mm) to have FLACS (Group 1, n = 91) or conventional phacoemulsification (Group 2, n = 91) was done. In eyes with shallow ACs, they noted maintenance of clearer corneas, less increase in central corneal thickness, lower AC inflammation, and better uncorrected distance visual acuity in the early postoperative period when FLACS was performed.
