Service Overview
We take the manual variations out of eye surgery by moving your treatment to a computer-guided laser suite. Femto/Bladeless Cataract Surgery, or Femtosecond Laser-Assisted Cataract Surgery (FLACS), automates your incisions, capsule openings, and lens pre-softening using infrared laser bursts. Backed by live OCT tracking, it delivers absolute anatomical accuracy and highly predictable lens centering.
What It Covers
Automated Capsulotomies
Creating perfect, mathematically centered circles so your premium lens lines up properly.
Softening Grids
Pre-cutting the hard cataract matrix into tiny cubes to minimize ultrasound needs later.
Bladeless Portals
Sculpting stepped, interlocking corneal paths that lock together tightly without blades.
Arcuate Corrections
Programming automated laser cuts on the cornea to treat astigmatism during the session.
Who It Is For
Premium Optics Patients
People choosing multifocal, toric, or EDOF IOLs that demand exact positioning.
Astigmatic Corrections
Individuals looking to fix corneal prescription metrics via programmed laser paths.
Precision Priorities
Candidates who want to limit manual tool usage and secure reliable structural outcomes.
How It Works
Vacuum Coupling
A soft, sterile patient interface ring gently secures the eye to the laser optical system.
Depth Profiling
The OCT engine scans internal layers, setting up strict safety boundaries for the laser path.
Laser Firing
In under 90 seconds, the system cuts your ports, opens the capsule, and segments the hard core.
Extraction Phase
The patient transfers to the microscope where the pre-split pieces are vacuumed out gently.
IOL Deployment
The artificial lens unfolds inside the perfectly circular laser opening, locking your focus in place.
Why Choose Our Bladeless Laser Program
Our refractive center links pre-op topography scans directly with our laser suite programming. This allows your eye's exact data to transfer directly to the execution computer, eliminating manual entry risks. Patients choosing this automated approach enjoy enhanced structural reproducibility and excellent refractive predictability.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does the bladeless femtosecond laser step cause pain?
No, the laser phase uses topical numbing drops. You will feel a minor, temporary pressure sensation during coupling but no pain.
Does this choice remove ultrasound completely from the operation?
It pre-softens the cataract to cut down ultrasound energy drastically, though fluid aspiration is still used to clear the chamber.
Why is a laser capsulotomy better for premium lenses?
Manual cuts can vary, but the laser produces a perfect circle every time, keeping premium optics centered over your visual axis long-term.
