PURPOSE: The Zepto nano-pulse precision capsulotomy is a novel device for capsulorhexis formation during cataract surgery. Few complications or challenges have been reported while using this device. The purpose of this paper is to highlight two intra-operative challenges that were encountered while using the Zepto device. OBSERVATIONS: Array CONCLUSIONS AND IMPORTANCE: Although not previously reported and possibly rare, intra-operative complications may be encountered while using the Zepto device, particularly in complex cataract cases. For the patient's safety and satisfactory post-operative and refractive outcomes, caution must be applied.
