Decision analysis tree comparing femtosecond laser-assisted cataract surgery and manual cataract surgery. cLCS = cost LCS; CME = cystoid macular edema; END/Endo = endophthalmitis; LD = lens dislocation; LCS = laser cataract surgery; MCS = manual phacoemulsification cataract surgery; PBK = pseudophakic bullous keratopathy; PCO = posterior capsule opacity; rlCME = rate of cystoid macular edema; rLCStotal = rate of all LCS complications; rlEND = rate of endophthalmitis; rlLD = rate of lens dislocation; rlPBK = rate of pseudophakic bullous keratopathy; rlPCO = rate of posterior capsule opacity; rlRRD = rate of rhegmatogenous retinal detachment; RRD = rhegmatogenous retinal detachment; uLCS5 = utility estimate of LCS.

3. Figure 2
Incremental cost-effectiveness ratio (cost in Australian dollars per quality-adjusted life years) of laser cataract surgery over manual cataract surgery. The cost of cataract surgery in Australian dollars is on the y-axis, and effectiveness estimate in terms of quality-adjusted life years (QALY) is on the x-axis. LCS = laser cataract surgery; MCS = manual phacoemulsification cataract surgery.
