This is a great revolution in microsurgery of cataract. Today the femto second laser is for microsurgery cataract is installed in Tunisia in the new international hospital CARTAGENA, a technology that exists in more than thirty centers in the United States and more than a dozen in Europe.
Today with this new laser surgery is much more precise and extremely fast. In effect, the laser is guided an OCT (ocular coherence tomography), the surgeon receives in its optical microscope all data and shooting screens allowing immediate adjustment.
The superiority of the laser is obvious because the centering and regularity are unimaginable.

The main advantage of the laser in the stages of surgery:
• The corneal incisions obtained by the laser are very precise and predictable.
• The opening of the anterior capsule (capsulorexis) is circular, regular, accurate and reproducible, this is paramount. Indeed, this contributes to the stability of the implant which replaces the crystalline lens.
• Fragmentation kernel cloudy lens (cataract) into pieces (which was before with ultrasound) .The laser energy is focused and less dispersive than the mechanical vibrations generated by the vibrating head phacoemulsificator frequency of ultrasound.

These steps are programmed laser and are executed in one time.
Finally, thanks to this technological advancement visual recovery is faster, even more secure and less surgery surgical aggression.
