Abstract | Purpose: Methods: PubMed, Cochrane Library, and EMBASE were systematically searched for studies comparing FLACS and CPS. Outcomes were operative complications, including the intraoperative capsule tear, postoperative corneal edema, macular edema, uncontrolled IOP, etc. The effect measures were weighted with odds ratios with 95% CIs. Results: Nineteen RCTs and 18 cohort studies, including 24,806 eyes (11,375 of the FLACS group and 13,431 of the CPS group), were identified. There were no significant differences between the two groups in anterior capsule tear, corneal edema, macular edema, uncontrolled IOP, vitreous loss, posterior vitreous detachment, etc. Posterior capsule tear rate showed a significantly lower in RCT subgroups (P = 0.04) and without differences in total (P = 0.63). Significant differences were observed in the incidence of descemet membrane tear/ trauma (P = 0.02) and IFIS/iris trauma (P = 0.04. Additionally, The FLACS specific complications showed a significantly higher rate of miosis (P < 0.0001), corneal epithelial defect (P = 0.001), corneal haze (P = 0.002), and subconjunctival hemorrhage (P = 0.01). Conclusions: FLACS maintains the same safety compared with CPS in terms of all intraoperative and postoperative complications. Although FLACS did show a statistically significant difference for several FLACS specific complications, it would not influence the visual outcome and heal itself.
