Abstract
Through the creation of astigmatic keratotomies, femtosecond laser can correct congenital or post-surgical astigmatism. We have been using an optimized treatment nomogram, which offers superior and more predictable results than manual incisional techniques. Femtosecond arcuate incisions allow a reduction of over 50% of the preoperative astigmatism. Nonetheless, the efficacy can likely be improved further by refining these nomograms specific to the femtosecond laser.
