研究目的
To review scientific literature concerning femtosecond laser–assisted cataract surgery.
研究成果
Studies suggest that the current clinical outcomes of femtosecond laser–assisted cataract surgery are not different to conventional phacoemulsification surgery and it is not cost effective when compared with conventional phacoemulsification surgery. In its current technological form, it is a useful surgical tool in specific complex cataract scenarios, but its usage has not been shown to translate into better clinical outcomes.
研究不足
The study is a review of existing literature, which may include biases inherent in the original studies. The conclusion that femtosecond laser–assisted cataract surgery does not significantly differ from conventional phacoemulsification surgery in clinical outcomes is based on the current technological form of the laser, suggesting potential for future advancements.
1：Experimental Design and Method Selection:
The study involved a comprehensive review of scientific literature from various databases including CENTRAL, Ovid MEDLINE?, Embase, Web of Science, and others. The search focused on articles related to femtosecond laser–assisted cataract surgery.
2：Sample Selection and Data Sources:
121 articles were selected based on the quality of their methodology and originality, including randomised controlled trials, cohort studies, case-controlled studies, case series, case reports, and laboratory studies.
3：List of Experimental Equipment and Materials:
Not explicitly mentioned in the abstract.
4：Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow:
The review discussed each step of the femtosecond laser–assisted cataract surgery procedure, including corneal incisions, arcuate keratotomies, capsulotomy, and lens fragmentation, with relevance to published outcomes.
5：Data Analysis Methods:
The analysis focused on comparing the outcomes and complication rates of femtosecond laser–assisted cataract surgery with conventional phacoemulsification surgery.
