corneal incisions created by the femtosecond laser
Demonstration That the Femtosecond Laser Consistently Produces Desired Incisions.
Evaluation of incisions created as programmed and measurement in mm. Data reported will be based on intended incision size (as programmed) vs. achieved incision size (as measured).
Time frame: Day 0, Operative (Within 2 hours of incision creation)
Surgeon Assessment of Workflow
Surgeon questionnaire (completed at the end of each surgery and the end of each surgical day): Were incisions created as intended?
Time frame: Day 0, Operative
Percent of Seidel Staining
Demonstration of no wound leakage as measured by Seidel test at slit lamp with fluorscein dye. A negative Seidel test result indicates no wound leakage.
Time frame: Day 0 (performed immediately post-incision creation), Day 1
