1：Experimental Design and Method Selection:

Retrospective clinical study involving 23 eyes of 23 patients. Femtosecond laser treatment was performed after selection of capsulotomy and lens fragmentation patterns. The capsulotomy diameter was chosen as 4.9 mm in all patients. After the femtosecond laser, the sutureless phacovitrectomy procedure was performed. At the end of surgery, perfluoropropane or sterile air tamponade was applied.

2：9 mm in all patients. After the femtosecond laser, the sutureless phacovitrectomy procedure was performed. At the end of surgery, perfluoropropane or sterile air tamponade was applied. Sample Selection and Data Sources:

2. Sample Selection and Data Sources: Patients diagnosed with coexisting retinal pathologies and cataract who underwent combined FLACS and sutureless 27-gauge vitreoretinal surgery between May 2017 and February 2019 at Bursa Retina Eye Hospital.

3：List of Experimental Equipment and Materials:

Femtosecond laser (Alcon LenSx Inc., Aliso Viejo, Calif., USA), Nidek Optical Biometer-AL Scan (Nidek Co., Ltd., Japan), Centurion Vision System (Alcon Laboratories Inc., Fort Worth, TX, USA), 27-gauge trocars (D.O.R.C. International and Alcon Laboratories), Zeiss microscope with EIBOS 2 (Haag Streit, USA) attachment.

4：Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow:

Patients were initially placed in the femtosecond laser operating suite. Femtosecond laser treatment was performed under topical anesthesia. After the laser treatment, patients were taken to another operating room for the sutureless phacovitrectomy procedure. Retrobulbar block anesthesia was used. The surgeon performed 2.2 mm clear corneal incision manually. The anterior capsule was then extracted with forceps. Hydrodissection, phacoaspiration, and irrigation-aspiration of the lens masses were performed. Finally, monofocal Alcon AcrySof SN60WF, 6 mm diameter intraocular lens implantation was performed.

Finally, monofocal Alcon AcrySof SN60WF, 6 mm diameter intraocular lens implantation was performed. Data Analysis Methods:

5. Data Analysis Methods: BCVA was measured using the Snellen chart and converted to the logarithm of the minimum angle of resolution (logMAR) scale for statistical analysis. Data were compared with the paired t-test and repeated measures ANOVA was used for comparing measures of BCVA and IOP during the follow-up period.
