Postoperative Astigmatic Outcomes Based on the Haptic Axis of Intraocular Lenses Inserted in Cataract Surgery
PURPOSE This study was conducted to compare post-operative astigmatic outcomes of two groups, with-the-rule (WTR) and against-the-rule (ATR) astigmatism patients, according to the haptic axis of intraocular lenses (IOLs) inserted in cataract surgery. METHODS Seventy-two eyes with WTR astigmatism and 79 eyes with ATR astigmatism had cataract surgery through a clear corneal temporal incision. T...

This practice creates the potential for inequitable pricing where the medical service provider is also the retailer. We measured the variation in prices between cataract surgeons for the same IOL and associated testing. METHODS We telephoned every cataract surgeon in Onta...

Residual astigmatism of 0.50 D and sometimes less may result in glare, symptomatic blur, ghosting, and halos. A recent study of 4,540 eyes of 2,415 patients showed that corneal astigmatism was present in the majority of patients unde...
