A prospective evaluation of femtosecond laser arcuate incisions to treat low-corneal astigmatism using a femtosecond laser system.

Both devices offer a very reliable way of obtaining keratometry values for cataract and refractive lens surgery. Keratometry values Astigmatic arcuate incisions for low cylinder using the Catalys femtosecond laser, the Donnenfeld nomogram, and automating the registration of the axis and the magnitude of the cylinder from the Cassini Ambient topographer resulted in a significant reduction in objective and refractive astigmatism contributing to an improvement in UCVA.
