Artisan iris-fixated toric phakic intraocular lens for the correction of high astigmatism after deep anterior lamellar keratoplasty.

We report the refractive correction of high astigmatism in one eye of a 23-year-old woman following deep anterior lamellar keratoplasty (DALK) using an Artisan iris-fixated, toric, phakic intraocular lens (IOL). One year after implantation, uncorrected and corrected distance visual acuities were both 20/25, refraction was -1.00 D cylinder, and the endothelial cell count was 1827 cells/mm(2). Ir...

Vector analysis of corneal and refractive astigmatism changes following toric pseudophakic and toric phakic IOL implantation.

PURPOSE To determine the efficacy of the astigmatism correction following toric intraocular lens (IOL) and toric phakic IOL (pIOL) implantation in eyes with no previous ocular surgery and in postkeratoplasty (PKP) eyes. In addition, changes in corneal astigmatism were determined. METHODS Astigmatism was analyzed in 35 eyes with an AcrySof toric IOL, 35 eyes with an Artiflex toric pIOL, 50 eye...

Artisan iris-fixated toric phakic and aphakic intraocular lens implantation for the correction of astigmatic refractive error after radial keratotomy.

We report 2 patients who had radial keratotomy (RK) to correct myopia. The first patient developed a postoperative hyperopic shift and cataract. Nine years post RK, she had intracapsular cataract extraction and implantation of an Artisan aphakic intraocular lens (IOL). Twenty years post RK, hyperopia and astigmatism progressed to +7.0 -5.75 x 100 with a best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) of 20...
