Manifest refraction at the early postoperative period (1– 6 weeks) and late postoperative period (3– 12 months) was collected. The spherical equivalent (SE) and variance of SE from target in diopters (D) were analyzed.Results: A total of 219 eyes from 175 FECD patients (73 FLACS, 146 conventional phacoemulsification) were included. In the early postoperative period, when comparing variance from intended target, 62% (n=126) had a SE variance of ≤ 0.5 D, 22% (n=44) > 0.5 D and ≤ 1 D, and 17% (n=34) > 1 D. In the late postoperative period, 62% (n=85) had a SE variance of ≤ 0.5 D, 19% (n=26) > 0.5 D and ≤ 1 D, and 20% (n=27) > 1 D. There was no difference in the variance of SE comparing FLACS versus conventional phacoemulsification in either the early postoperative period (p=0.78) or the late postoperative period (p=0.29).Conclusion: Patients with mild-to-moderate FECD had favorable refractive outcomes with phacoemulsification. There was no difference in refractive outcomes in eyes with FECD between the group that underwent FLACS versus the group that underwent conventional phacoemulsification.Keywords: femtosecond laser assisted cataract surgery, Fuchs’ dystrophy, Fuchs’ endothelial corneal dystrophy, refractive error, refractive outcomeKoo EHParanjpe VFeuer WJPersad PJDonaldson KEDove Medical Pressarticlefemtosecond laser assisted cataract surgeryfuchs’ dystrophyfuchs’ endothelial corneal dystrophyrefractive errorrefractive outcomeOphthalmologyRE1-994ENClinical Ophthalmology, Vol Volume 15, Pp 3419-3429 (2021)
