Purpose To determine the impact of intraoperative aberrometry on uncorrected visual acuity and predictability (MAVPE) in Femtosecond laser cataract surgery

Background Outcomes analysis in the literature Narvaez / Stulting JCRS Dec. 2006 643 eyes 46 % within 0.50 D of formula predicted target MAVPE: 0.52 D ± 0.44 D Gale et al, Eye Aug. 2007 4806 eyes (2688 in the PCI group) ▫ PCI group results 55 % of eyes within 0.50 D of formula predicted target 85% of eyes within 1.00 of formula predicted target MAVPE: 0.55D ± 0.55D Behndig et al, JCRS July 2012 17,506 case (performed between 2008-2010) 55% achieved refractive target (0.00 D sphere,<1.00 D of astigmatism MAVPE: 0.50 D ± 0.34 D

Method One surgeon No postrefractive cases Retrospective analysis of eyes within the following groups: ▫Group 1 – Consecutive cases that had cataract surgery with IOL implantation utilizing a femtosecond laser (LenSx ® ) without intraoperative wavefront aberrometry (ORA System ® ) ▫Group 2 – Consecutive cases that had cataract surgery with IOL implantation utilizing a femtosecond laser (LenSx) in combination with intraoperative wavefront aberrometry (ORA System)

Advances in Intraoperative Aberrometry ORA System with VerifEye Function: Provides streaming refractive information to the surgeon during preview (prior to measurement) Provides: High quality measurements ▫Verifies that the eye is stable and ready for measurement Result: Greater consistency and accuracy IOL power recommendations Guidance for astigmatic measurements Shorter measurement time Faster processor 2 seconds for measurement 3 seconds for processing

Summary Femtosecond laser (FSL) assisted cataract surgery provided refraction outcomes that are better that those reported in literature FSL combined with Intraoperative aberrometry provided better UDVA than FSL alone ▫Difference in mean acuity is statistically significant (p<0.03) FSL combined with Intraoperative aberrometry provided better refractive outcomes (as measured by MAVPE) than FSL alone ▫Difference in mean acuity is statistically significant (p<0.04)
20
Conclusion Preliminary results suggest that intraoperative aberrometry can improve results with Femtosecond laser cataract surgery Proposed addition evaluation ▫Included a non FSL, non ORA group ▫Include an ORA only group
