Boston Eye Group Adopts Femtosecond Laser for Cataract Surgery

Boston Eye Group Founder Samir Melki, MD, PhD, has adopted the CATALYS laser system for cataract surgery procedures, according to a release.

The system features a femtosecond laser that reduces the need for ultrasound technology to soften cataracts for removal, decreasing the likelihood and degree of inflammation.

Dr. Melki's ophthalmology group has five U.S. outpatient clinics and others in London and his native Beirut, Lebanon. He is an associate surgeon at the Massachusetts Eye and Ear Infirmary and on the clinical faculty at Harvard Medical School.
