Purpose: To evaluate the influence of wavelength on penetration depth and quality of femtosecond laser corneal incisions in view of optimizing procedures in corneal surgery assisted by ultrashort pulse lasers.
Methods: We performed penetrating and lamellar incisions on eye bank corneas using several ultrashort pulse laser sources. Several wavelengths within the near-infrared and shortwave-infrared wavelength range were used and the pulse energy was varied.
Purpose: The outcome of ultrashort pulse laser surgery of the cornea is strongly influenced by the light scattering properties of the tissue, for which little data are available. The purpose of the present study is to provide quantitative values for light scattering and its relation to the degree of edema.
Methods: An experimental optical measuring setup based on confocal geometry was used to measure the unscattered and scattered fractions of light transmitted by eye bank corneas presenting various degrees of edema.
Purpose: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the quality of femtosecond laser corneal trephination in eye bank eyes by histologic and ultrastructural investigation.
Methods: We performed Z-shaped, tophat-shaped, and mushroom-shaped trephinations of swelled corneas from eye bank eyes using an Intralase FS60 system. The corneoscleral discs were fixed immediately after the laser procedure without removing the buttons.
