Millions of people worldwide have been patients for LASIK surgery and have benefited from new forms of technology. LASIK surgery includes three parts: wavefront detection, femtosecond laser flap creation, and excimer laser cornea correction. Some parts of this book focus on femtosecond laser-assisted LASIK surgery, including basic research for femtosecond laser eye surgery and tissue imaging. The newest application of femtosecond lasers in ophthalmology is cataract surgery. Currently, there are a few lasers at or near the point of commercial release, including LenSx (Alcon Laboratories Inc., Fort Worth, Texas), Catalys (Abbott Medical Optics, Santa Ana, California), LensAR (LensAR Inc., Orlando, Florida), Victus (Technolas Perfect Vision and Bausch & Lomb, Rochester, New York), and Femto LDV (Ziemer Ophthalmic Systems AG, Port, Switzerland). All laser systems share a common platform—which includes an anterior-segment imaging system, patient interface, and femtosecond laser to image—to calculate and deliver the laser pulses. Some parts of this book explain the principle of OCT-guided femtosecond laser cataract surgery. The combination of femtosecond laser surgery and OCT imaging simultaneously guides the development of next generation femtosecond surgical lasers in cataract surgery and explores femtosecond laser surgical strategies.
