Surgeries were performed using FLACS (with LenSx) or conventional technique in adults ≥ 20 years with grade 2– 4 cataracts. Visits included preoperative, surgery day, and 5 postoperative visits (days 1, 4– 10, 20– 40, 60– 120, and 150– 210). Primary endpoint was CDE. Secondary endpoints included ECD percent change at day 150– 210 versus preoperative visit and average torsional amplitude on surgery day. Exploratory endpoints included central corneal thickness and corrected distance visual acuity (CDVA). Superiority of FLACS to conventional technique was evaluated using t-tests based on a mixed model for repeated measures.Results: Full analysis set included 53 eyes per group. Mean cataract grade was 2.92± 0.58 in FLACS and 2.94± 0.57 in conventional group. FLACS versus conventional method had significantly lower mean CDE (0.213± 0.334 versus 1.718± 0.898%-seconds, respectively; P< 0.0001), demonstrating superiority of FLACS. Low endothelial cell loss (ECL) was achieved with both FLACS and conventional methods (1.5± 5.6% and 2.7± 5.2%; P=0.260). Torsional amplitude was significantly lower for FLACS versus conventional method (19.6± 16.0% versus 31.1± 6.6%; P< 0.0001). Central corneal thickness was comparable for both methods at all visits except day 1; CDVA was comparable for both methods at all postoperative visits.Conclusion: FLACS achieved significantly lower CDE compared with the conventional surgical method (P< 0.0001). Low ECL was achieved with both FLACS (1.5%) and conventional (2.7%) methods.Keywords: cumulative dissipated energy, endothelial cell loss, LenSx, torsional phacoOka YSasaki NInjev VPDove Medical Pressarticlecumulative dissipated energyendothelial cell losslensxtorsional phaco.OphthalmologyRE1-994ENClinical Ophthalmology, Vol Volume 15, Pp 4227-4237 (2021) |
