Active-fluidics versus gravity-fluidics in uncomplicated cataract surgery: using optical coherence tomography angiography to estimate early changes in macular and optic disc microcirculation
The AFS procedure appears to protect macular and optic disc microcirculation during phacoemulsification, and it may represent a more prudent approach, particularly in cases that require specific care to preserve residual peripapillary and macular vasculature (e.g., diabetic or glaucomatous eyes).
