AIM: To analyze the clinical value of femtosecond laser in vitrectomy combined with phacoemulsification and intraocular lens(IOL)implantation. <p>METHODS:We selected 100 patients(102 eyes)undergoing vitrectomy combined with phacoemulsification and IOL implantation in our hospital from October 31 2013 to October 31 2015. They were divided into routine operation group, 50 cases(52 eyes), and femtosecond laser group, 50 cases(50 eyes). The parameters were compared between the two groups, including total operation time, postoperative complications(elevated intraocular pressure, uveitis, vitreous hemorrhage, and retinal detachment), postoperative intraocular pressure and postoperative half of the visual acuity(near visual acuity, visual acuity, uncorrected visual acuity, corrected visual acuity). <p>RESULTS: The difference on total operation time of the two groups was statistically significant(<i>P</i><0.05). The differences between the two groups on postoperative intraocular pressure, uveitis, vitreous hemorrhage, retinal detachment were not statistically significant(<i>P</i>>0.05). There were no significant differences on internal pressure, near visual acuity, far visual acuity, uncorrected visual acuity, corrected visual acuity at 6mo after surgery(<i>P</i>>0.05). <p>CONCLUSION: Femtosecond laser in vitrectomy combined with phacoemulsification and IOL implantation has a high safety and efficacy with the advantages as accurate, efficient.
