Correcting astigmatism with toric intraocular lenses: effect of posterior corneal astigmatism.
PURPOSE To evaluate the impact of posterior corneal astigmatism on outcomes with toric intraocular lenses (IOLs). SETTING Cullen Eye Institute, Baylor College of Medicine, Houston, Texas, USA. DESIGN Case series. METHODS Corneal astigmatism was measured using 5 devices before and 3 weeks after cataract surgery. Toric IOL alignment was recorded at surgery and at the slitlamp 3 weeks postop...
متن کاملSurgical management of astigmatism with toric intraocular lenses.
Correction of corneal astigmatism is a key element of cataract surgery, since post-surgical residual astigmatism can compromise the patient's uncorrected visual acuity. Toric intraocular lenses (IOLs) compensate for corneal astigmatism at the time of surgery, correcting ocular astigmatism. They are a predictable treatment. However, accurate measurement of corneal astigmatism is mandatory for ch...
متن کاملToric intraocular lenses for correction of astigmatism in keratoconus and after corneal surgery
PURPOSE To describe the results of cataract extraction with toric intraocular lens (IOL) implantation in patients with preexisting astigmatism from three corneal conditions (keratoconus, postkeratoplasty, and postpterygium surgery). METHODS Cataract patients with topographically stable, fairly regular (although sometimes very high) corneal astigmatism underwent phacoemulsification with implan...
متن کاملToric Intraocular Lenses for the Correction of Astigmatism
The ideal procedure for the correction of astigmatism should provide: precise and accurate adjustment, safety, predictable outcome, lasting effect and simplicity with an acceptable price. Conventional methods for solving problems such as glasses and/or contact lenses at the present time often do not meet the needs of patients. Whether it is the objective or subjective reasons for a large number...
