Abstract:

Femtosecond laser technology controversial in experienced anterior segment surgeons, however, it`s increased the procedure simplicity and security margins in formative stages. Femtosecond technology as a training resource allows: a teaching-learning process back to forward, starting with phaco/aspiration; a perfectly rounder capsulotomy that ensures excellent lenticular stability; lower use of energy during surgery in this stage of learning, constituting a kindly technique with the corneal endothelium; ensures self-sealing wounds and watertight anterior chamber during the surgery; more independence that reinforces self-esteem; it`s ideal in complicated cases; allows to hit the refractive target from the first stages of learning.
