Creating a Nomogram for Laser Assisted Cataract Surgery

Show Description +

Edoardo Ligabue, MD; and Cristina Giordano, OD, describe how they created the Ligabue-Giordano Femto Cataract Nomogram for laser-assisted cataract surgery. By entering the value in diopters of a particular eye's anterior corneal surface curvature gradient, surgeons can determine the amount of energy (in nanojoules) to program into the Victus display for capsulotomy. Likewise, entering the percentage value of the nucleus density will provide the value required for fragmentation energy. [No sound]
