[PMID: 39004075 DOI: 10.1159/000539986] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/08/2024] [Accepted: 06/19/2024] [Indexed: 07/16/2024]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION This study compared the postoperative axial rotation of the toric intraocular lens (T-IOL) after cataract surgery combined with vitrectomy versus cataract surgery alone. METHODS This retrospective, non-randomized, observational study enrolled patients who underwent cataract surgery combined with vitrectomy in one eye and cataract surgery alone in the contralateral eye. AcrySof Toric IOLs (Alcon Laboratories) were implanted in both eyes of the same patient. The axial rotation of the T-IOL was analyzed 3 months postoperatively using photographs obtained during and after surgery. In the combined group, T-IOL axial alignment was performed before vitrectomy. Preoperative corneal astigmatism and postoperative residual astigmatism were also compared in both groups. RESULTS This study examined 36 eyes of 18 patients (74.7 ± 6.8 years). The axial rotation was 2.94 ± 1.70° in the cataract group versus 3.06 ± 2.34° in the combined group 3 months postoperatively, and the difference lacked significance (p = 0.98). In the combined group, the mean axial rotation during surgery was 2.17 ± 1.80°. Axial rotation within 5° was observed in 17 of 18 eyes (94.4%) in the cataract group and 16 of 18 eyes (88.9%) in the combined group, with no significant difference (p = 0.54). The comparison of postoperative residual astigmatism with preoperative corneal astigmatism revealed a significant improvement from 1.49 ± 0.40 D to 0.39 ± 0.47 D in the cataract group (p < 0.0001) and from 1.61 ± 0.40 D to 0.42 ± 0.43 D in the combined group (p < 0.0001). CONCLUSIONS The postoperative axial rotation of the T-IOL in eyes that underwent cataract surgery combined with vitrectomy was stable and comparable to that of eyes that underwent cataract surgery alone.

Abstract
PURPOSE To assess rotational stability and refractive outcomes of a new toric hydrophobic acrylic intraocular lens (IOL). DESIGN Single-center, prospective, interventional clinical trial. METHODS A total of 130 eyes of 82 patients with age-related cataract and total corneal astigmatism of greater than 1.0 diopters (D) received a hydrophobic acrylic toric IOL Clareon CNW0T3-9. Baseline measurement for rotational stability evaluation was performed at the end of surgery (EOS), with the patient still supine on the operating table, using non-movable vessels as reference landmarks. Postoperative retroillumination pictures were taken at 1 h, 1 week, 1 month and 4-6 months postoperatively. Subjective manifest refraction was assessed at the 6 months follow-up visit. RESULTS Final results were obtained in 126 eyes of 80 patients. Mean absolute rotation from EOS to 6 months was 1.33 ± 2.00 [0.01, 19.80] degrees. Rotational stability values from EOS to 1 h, 1 h to 1 week, 1 week to 1 month and 1 month to 6 months were 0.86 ± 0.82 [0.00, 3.90], 1.06 ± 1.94 [0.00, 19.45], 0.47 ± 0.42 [0.00, 2.03] and 0.38 ± 0.40 [0.00, 2.56] degrees. Mean preoperative corneal astigmatism was 1.78 ± 0.83 [1.00, 4.76] D which changed to a mean postoperative refractive astigmatism of 0.33 ± 0.27 [0.00, 1.25] D at 6 months. CONCLUSION The Clareon toric IOL presented very good rotational stability with a mean absolute rotation below 1.4° from EOS to 6 months. Only two IOLs rotated more than 5° with none of them requiring repositioning surgery. Refractive outcomes were satisfying with a mean residual refractive astigmatism below 0.50 D. TRIAL REGISTRATION Registered at Clinicaltrials.gov NCT03803852 ; on May 17, 2022.

Abstract
Purpose This study aimed to determine the influence of decentration, rotation, and tilt on objective optical quality of plate haptic toric intraocular lenses (tIOLs). Methods The area ratio of modulation transfer function (MTF), strehl ratio of point spread function (PSF), and higher order aberrations (HOAs) for 3 mm and 5 mm pupil diameter (PD) were evaluated at postoperative 1 month. The retroillumination images pictured by OPD-scan III were used to quantify the degree of decentration and rotation, whereas the tIOL tilt was directly obtained by the tilt aberration. Patients were separated into two subgroups based on tIOL misalignment cutoff values. Results There were 29 eyes (24 patients) in the study. The decentration of more than 0.25 mm did not substantially differ from those less than or equal to 0.25 mm. PSF of 3 mm PD and MTF, intraocular HOAs, and trefoil aberration for 3 mm and 5 mm PD significantly deteriorated with a rotation of more than 3 degrees, whereas only intraocular HOAs for 5 mm PD and coma for 3 mm and 5 mm PD were significantly severe with a tilt of more than 0.1 µm and 0.25 µm in corresponding PD. Furthermore, tIOL rotation and tilt were highly correlated with intraocular trefoil aberration and coma, respectively. Conclusions The decentration of the monofocal bitoric IOLs is more tolerant to optical quality degradation after 1 month of surgery but more sensitive to intraocular trefoil aberration caused by rotation and coma aberration induced by tilt. Translational Relevance As far as we know, this is the first study to investigate the relationship between the plate haptic bitoric IOL misalignment and objective optical quality measured by OPD-scan III in the real world, which may provide reference information for IOL selection to improve surgical outcomes.

Abstract
PURPOSE To evaluate the short-term clinical outcomes of a specific toric diffractive trifocal intraocular lens (IOL) implanted following an optimized clinical protocol in a large population. METHODS Retrospective analysis of 337 eyes of 231 patients (mean age, 62.2 years) undergoing cataract surgery with implantation of the trifocal diffractive IOL AT.LISA tri toric 939M/MP (Carl Zeiss Meditec). A strict and careful clinical protocol was followed, including an accurate measurement of corneal astigmatism, use of a latest generation IOL power calculator, photography-based method intraoperative control of IOL alignment and IOL reposition at 1 week postoperatively if needed. Clinical outcomes in terms of visual acuity, refraction, efficacy of astigmatic correction analysed by vector analysis and patient satisfaction were evaluated during a 3-month follow-up. RESULTS A total of 82% and 98% of eyes achieved a postoperative uncorrected distance visual acuity of 0.00 and 0.10 logMAR or better, respectively. Furthermore, 99.7%, and 100.0% of eyes showed a postoperative spherical equivalent within ± 0.50 D and ± 1.00 D, with 97.9% of eyes having a postoperative cylinder ≤ 0.50 D. Uncorrected near and intermediate visual acuities were 0.2 logMAR or better in 89.0% and 99.1% of eyes, respectively. Mean difference vector, magnitude of error and angle of error were 0.02 ± 0.14 D, 0.02 ± 0.13 D and 0.11 ± 1.18°. Patient satisfaction was referred as high or very high by 97.6% of patients. CONCLUSIONS The implantation of the trifocal toric IOL evaluated following a careful clinical protocol provides an efficacious visual rehabilitation and astigmatic correction, leading to high levels of patient satisfaction.

Abstract
PURPOSE To evaluate rotational stability, decentration and tilt of the monofocal intraocular lens (IOL) Nanex (NC1-SP; HOYA Surgical Optics). DESIGN Prospective interventional case series. METHODS The study was performed at the Department of Ophthalmology, Medical University of Vienna. The study population comprised 130 eyes of 68 patients with age-related cataract who underwent cataract surgery with implantation of a Nanex IOL. Baseline image for rotational stability evaluation was obtained at the end of surgery (EoS) and compared to retroillumination images taken at 1 hour, 1 week, 1 month, and 6 months after surgery. Axis alignment was assessed using nonmovable landmarks on the sclera and the optic-haptic junctions of the IOL. Anterior segment OCT images were performed to evaluate decentration and tilt. The main outcome measure was absolute rotation from EoS to 6 months postoperatively. RESULTS Median IOL rotation of all eyes from EoS to 6 months was 1.9° (interquartile range 0.1°-37.5°). Ten eyes (9.71%) rotated more than 5° and 2 eyes (1.94%), more than 10°. IOL rotation did not correlate with axial eye length (Spearman r = -0.042, P = .46), crystalline lens thickness (Spearman r = 0.134, P = .19), and crystalline lens equatorial diameter (Spearman r = 0.101, P = .325). IOL rotation positively correlated with anterior fibrosis severity (Spearman r = 0.321, P = .002). Preoperative decentration (0.2 ± 0.12 mm) and tilt (5.7 ± 1.6°) did not change significantly after surgery (0.22 ± 0.12 mm and 5.62 ± 1.49°, respectively). CONCLUSION The investigated IOL presented good rotational stability and low decentration and tilt values. Nevertheless, anterior capsule fibrosis development led to a higher tendency of IOL rotation after 1 week.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Intraocular lenses (IOLs) may lose their optical quality if they are not correctly placed inside the capsular bag once implanted. One possible malpositioning of the IOL could be the implantation in an upside-down position. In this work, three aspheric IOLs with different spherical aberration (SA) have been designed and numerically tested to analyse the optical quality variation with the IOL flip, and misalignments, using a theoretical model eye. METHODS Using the commercial optical design software OSLO, the effect of decentration and tilt was evaluated by numerical ray tracing in two conditions: in their designed position and flipped with respect to the planned position (IOL is implanted upside down). The theoretical model eye used was the Atchison model eye. Seven IOL designs of +27.00 diopters were used: a lens with negative SA to correct the corneal SA, a lens to partially correct the corneal SA, and a lens to not add any SA to the cornea (aberration-free IOL). These lenses were designed with the aspherical surface located on the anterior and posterior IOL surface. A lens with no aspherical surfaces was also included. For the optical quality analysis, the modulation transfer function (MTF) was used, together with the Zernike wavefront aberration coefficients of defocus, astigmatism, and primary coma. RESULTS Off-centring and tilting the IOL reduced overall MTF values and increased wavefront aberration errors. With the IOL correctly positioned within the capsular bag, an aberration-free IOL is the best choice for maintaining optical quality. When the IOL is flipped inside the capsular bag, the optical quality changes, with the aberration-free IOL and the IOL without aspheric surfaces providing the worst results. With the lens in an upside-down position, an IOL design to partially correct corneal SA shows the best optical quality results in decentration and tilt, in terms of MTF and wavefront aberrations. CONCLUSION The aberration-free IOL is the best choice when minimal postoperative errors of decentration or tilt are predicted. With IOL flip, the negative SA lens design is the best choice, regarding the root mean square wavefront aberrations. However, in a proper IOL implantation, the IOL designed to partially compensate the corneal SA including asphericity on its posterior surface is the better possible option, even in the presence of decentration or tilt.

Abstract
PURPOSE The aim of this study was to analyze the incidence and outcomes of repositioning surgery to correct misalignment of several toric intraocular lenses (IOLs) after cataract surgery. METHODS In this retrospective study, patients who underwent repositioning surgery to correct misalignment of toric IOLs following cataract surgery between January 2019 and December 2021 were enrolled. The medical data on patients' age, gender, preoperative axial length, corneal astigmatism, the axis of astigmatism, IOL models, IOL axis, uncorrected distance visual acuity, residual refraction, and postoperative outcomes were analyzed. RESULTS Among the 1,135 eyes implanted with toric IOLs at Qingdao Eye Hospital, 23 (2.026%, 23/1,135) underwent repositioning surgery. Univariate analysis revealed that the incidence of repositioning surgery was significantly lower with AcrySof (0.636%, 5/786) than with ZEISS (2.959%, 5/169) and TECNIS (7.222%, 13/180) IOL platforms; the incidence of repositioning surgery with monofocal toric IOLs (1.169%, 11/941) was significantly lower than multifocal toric IOLs (6.186%, 12/194) (p < 0.001); additionally, a significant difference in age was also observed (p = 0.002). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the IOL platform (p = 0.004) and younger age (p = 0.006) were independent risk factors for repositioning surgery. CONCLUSION The incidence of repositioning surgery of toric IOLs after cataract surgery was 2.026%. It was linked to the IOL platform, multifocal toric IOLs, and younger age.

Abstract
Purpose To compare the visual outcomes of digital and slit-beam manual marking for toric intraocular lenses (IOL) in cataract surgery. Setting Single-center, Beijing Tongren Hospital, China. Design Retrospective study. Methods All patients with cataracts and regular corneal astigmatism greater than 0.75 diopters (D) underwent cataract surgery and astigmatism correction between June 2019 and June 2020. To mark the target axis of the toric IOL and the location of the incision, intraoperative digital marking was used by Callisto eye image-guided system in one group, while preoperative manual slit-beam marking was used in the other group. Uncorrected and best-corrected spectacle visual acuity, refraction, toric IOL axis, total higher order aberrations, coma, spherical aberration, and trefoil were evaluated at 1, 4, and 12 weeks postoperatively. Results Seventy-two eyes of 58 patients were included. At 3 months after surgery, the mean residual refractive cylinder was 0.42 ± 0.45D in the digital group and 0.39 ± 0.40D in the manual group (P = 0.844). There were no significant differences between groups in spherical equivalent refraction, uncorrected and best-corrected spectacle visual acuity, or the parameters of vector analysis. All toric IOL alignment errors were within 10° of the intended axis, and among them, about 42% of eyes in the digital group and 61% of eyes in the manual group had a rotation of 0–2° (P = 0.038). Trefoil in the manual group decreased postoperatively compared with the digital group (P = 0.012). Other aberration analyses did not reveal any statistical differences between groups. Conclusions Accurate slit-beam manual marking and digital image-guided marking are equally effective for toric IOL alignment.

Abstract
Toric intraocular lenses (T-IOLs) may lose their optical quality if they are not correctly positioned inside the capsular bag once implanted. In this work, T-IOLs with cylinder powers of +1.50, +4.50 and +7.50 D and differing degrees of spherical aberration have been designed, manufactured and tested in vitro using a commercial optical bench that complies with the requirements of standard ISO 11979-2. Moreover, the effect of tilt and rotation on optical quality was assessed by means of numerical ray tracing on an astigmatic eye model, while the effect of decentration was evaluated numerically and experimentally.

[PMID: 35225972 PMCID: PMC8883946 DOI: 10.3390/vision6010013] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/28/2021] [Revised: 01/24/2022] [Accepted: 02/13/2022] [Indexed: 11/16/2022] Open
Abstract
Smartphone apps are becoming increasingly popular in ophthalmology, one specific area of their application being toric intraocular lens (IOL) surgery for astigmatism correction. Our objective was to identify, review and objectively score smartphone apps applicable to toric IOL calculation and/or axis alignment. This review was divided into three phases. A review was conducted on four major app databases (phase I): National Health Service (NHS) Apps Library, Google Play Store, Apple App Store and Amazon Appstore. A systematic literature review (phase II) was conducted to identify studies for included apps in phase I of our study. Keywords used in both searches included: “toric lens”, “toric IOL”, “refraction”, “astigmatism”, “ophthalmology”, “eye calculator”, “ophthalmology calculator” and “refractive calculator”. Included apps were objectively scored (phase III) by three independent reviewers using the mobile app rating scale (MARS), a validated tool that ranks the quality of mobile health apps using a calculated mean app quality (MAQ) score. Phase I of our study screened 2428 smartphone apps, of which six apps for toric IOL calculation and four apps for axis marking were eligible and were selected for quantitative analysis. Phase II of our study screened 477 studies from PubMed, Medline and Google Scholar. Three studies validating two apps (toriCAM, iToric Patwardhan) in a clinical setting as adjunct tools for preoperative axis marking were identified. Phase III ranked Toric Calculator for iPhone (Apple iOS, MAQ 4.13; average MAQ 3.34 ± 0.54) as the highest-scoring toric IOL calculator, and iToric Patwardhan (Android OS, MAQ 4.13; average MAQ 3.41 ± 0.44) was the highest-scoring axis marker in our study. Our review identified and objectively scored ten smartphone apps available for toric IOL surgery adjuncts. Toric Calculator for iPhone and iToric Patwardhan were the highest-scoring toric IOL calculator and axis marker, respectively. Current literature, though limited, suggests that axis marking smartphone apps can achieve similar levels of misalignment reduction when compared to digital systems.

Impact of Material and Lens Design on Repositioning Surgery of Toric Intraocular Lenses: A Single-Arm Meta-Analysis. J Ophthalmol 2022; 2022:6699596. [PMID: 35223091 PMCID: PMC8881179 DOI: 10.1155/2022/6699596] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/10/2020] [Accepted: 12/22/2021] [Indexed: 11/29/2022] Open
Abstract
Aim To analyze the pooled incidence rate in repositioning surgery by considering different materials and designs. Methods All published studies investigating the repositioning surgery of toric intraocular lenses (IOLs) before September 1, 2020, were searched and evaluated. The R3.5.2 software was used to extract the data, and a single arm meta-analysis was performed. Results 19 cases from 18 published studies articles were included in the meta-analysis. The pooled incidence rate in repositioning surgery was 2% (I2 = 53%, Pheterogeneity<0.01). Plate and silicone IOLs had significantly higher incidence rates (6% for each) than loop (2%) and hydrophobic acrylate (2%). Incidence rates of Acrysof, Staar, TECNIS, PhysIOL SA, T-flex 623T, and Microsil 6116TU groups were 1% (95% CI [1%–2%]), 6% (95% CI [4%–9%]), 3% (95% CI [2%–4%]), 1.40% (1/71), 3.03% (1/33), and 4.76% (1/21), respectively. Conclusions The pooled incidence rate of repositioning surgery in IOLs was 2%. Materials and designs would be risk factors for the rotational stability of the toric IOLs. Pooled incidence rates of the hydrophobic acrylate and loop group were lower than those of the silicone and plate group. Product identity is the main driver of heterogeneity.

The Effect of Toric Intraocular Lens Implantation in Irregular Corneal Steep and Flat Meridian. J Ophthalmol 2021; 2021:3630668. [PMID: 34777858 PMCID: PMC8589528 DOI: 10.1155/2021/3630668] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/04/2021] [Accepted: 10/26/2021] [Indexed: 11/17/2022] Open
Abstract
Purpose To evaluate the effect of toric intraocular lens implantation in cataract patients with irregular corneal steep and flat meridian. Methods Data of 112 eyes of 78 patients who underwent toric intraocular lens implantation were analyzed retrospectively. Steep meridian deviations (not 180°) and steep and flat meridian deviations (not 90°) were classified as 0, 1–9, 10–19, 20–29, 30–39, and over 30°. Meridian deviation was measured with a sagittal map of a rotating Scheimpflug camera (Pentacam®: Oculus, Wetzlar, Germany) using PicPickTools (NGWIN, Seoul, Korea). Results Residual astigmatism (D) of 0 (0.51 ± 0.13, 0.55 ± 0.15) and 1–9 (0.61 ± 0.16, 0.66 ± 0.19) groups were significantly lower than that of 10–19 (0.92 ± 0.24, 0.90 ± 0.28), 20–29 (0.10 ± 0.32, 1.01 ± 0.35), and over 30° groups (1.12 ± 0.37, 1.14 ± 0.40) both in steep meridian deviations and horizontal and vertical meridian deviations at 6 months (P < 0.05). Postoperative mean UCVA (logMAR) of 0 (0.09 ± 0.04, 0.09 ± 0.05) (logMAR) and 1–9 (0.10 ± 0.04, 0.11 ± 0.08) groups was significantly improved compared to that of 10–19 (0.14 ± 0.05, 0.17 ± 0.10), 20–29 (0.18 ± 0.08, 0.21 ± 0.10), and over 30° groups (0.20 ± 0.09, 0.22 ± 0.11) both in steep meridian deviations and horizontal and vertical meridian deviations at 6 months (P < 0.05). Conclusions Correction of astigmatism with toric intraocular lens implantation is not accurate in corneas with steep meridian deviations and steep and flat meridian deviations of more than 10°. Therefore, care should be taken when we perform toric intraocular lens implantation in patients with irregular corneal meridian.

Abstract
PURPOSE To evaluate the associations between anterior segment parameters and the rotational stability of a plate-haptic toric intraocular lens (IOL). SETTING Eye and Ear, Nose, Throat Hospital of Fudan University. DESIGN Retrospective case series. METHODS Patients who underwent uneventful phacoemulsification and plate-haptic toric IOL (AT TORBI 709M IOL) implantation were included. Preoperative axial length (AL) and anterior segment parameters, including the white-to-white (WTW) distance, anterior chamber depth (ACD), lens thickness (LT), and anterior segment length (ASL; the sum of ACD and LT) were recorded. IOL rotation, residual astigmatism (RAS), and visual acuity were evaluated 1 month postoperatively. The associations between the anterior segment parameters and IOL rotation were evaluated. RESULTS A total of 102 eyes of 102 patients were included. The mean AL was 26.43 ± 2.65 mm (range 21.71-34.60 mm). The mean IOL rotation was 4.59 ± 3.18 degrees, and RAS was 0.62 ± 0.39 D postoperatively. No correlation was detected between AL, ACD, or LT and the rotation of the plate-haptic toric IOL (all P > .05). However, its rotation correlated positively with the WTW distance (r = 0.250, P = .011) and ASL (r = 0.214, P = .030). Backward stepwise multiple linear regression revealed that the WTW distance (β = 2.142, P = .014) and ASL (β = 2.060, P = .037) were independent predictors of plate-haptic toric IOL rotation. CONCLUSIONS Plate-haptic toric IOLs rotate more in eyes with larger WTW distances and longer ASLs; therefore, toric IOL implantation should be performed with caution in eyes with these characteristics.

Abstract
PURPOSE To evaluate the clinical outcomes and quality of life following implantation of PanOptix toric intraocular lens (IOL) and to compare the outcomes following femtosecond laser assisted cataract surgery (FLACS) and standard cataract surgery (SCS). METHODS This comparative retrospective study included 79 eyes of 55 patients underwent cataract or refractive lens exchange surgery between April 2017 and January 2020 in Bayindir Hospital and Kaskaloglu Eye Hospital. Corneal (CA) and refractive astigmatism (RA), uncorrected visual acuities for distant, intermediate, and near (UDVA, UIVA, and UNVA), low contrast distance visual acuity, rotational stability, defocus curves, photopic and mesopic contrast sensitivity (CS), visual function-14 (VF-14) test, presence of dysphotopsia, and need for spectacles were evaluated at postoperative third month. Outcomes were compared between FLACS and SCS group. RESULTS The mean UDVA, UIVA, and UNVA were 0.05 ± 0.07, 0.08 ± 0.08, and 0.06 ± 0.07 logMAR, respectively. All patients achieved ⩾0.3 logMAR uncorrected visual acuity for all distances. UDVA was found significantly better in FLACS group (p = 0.03). All eyes had ⩽1 D of subjective postoperative RA. Defocus curve had two peaks at 0 and -1.50 D. Spectacle independence was achieved in 88.7% of patients. Photopic and mesopic CS was within normal range in all patients. The mean VF-14 score was 98 ± 2. The mean IOL axis rotation was 2.1° ± 2.3°. Only one patient reported seeing disturbing halos. CONCLUSIONS This trifocal toric IOL effectively reduced refractive astigmatism and provided excellent visual outcomes with high spectacle independence, patients' satisfaction, and good rotational stability. FLACS might have an impact on optimal postoperative results.

Abstract
PURPOSE To compare the axis position of the measured total corneal astigmatism (TCA) with the axis of the anterior keratometry and the calculated axis position of different toric intraocular lens (IOL) calculators. METHODS A total of 163 astigmatic eyes of 163 patients were retrospectively analyzed. The axis of the actual TCA, measured with anterior segment optical coherence tomography, was compared to the anterior keratometric value (Group I) and three different methods of TCA calculation for toric IOL power determination: Abulafia-Koch regression formula (Group II), Barrett Toric Calculator V2.0 (Group III), and Barrett Toric Calculator V2.0 including measured posterior keratometric value (Group IV). Eyes were assigned to three subgroups: with-the-rule, against-the-rule, and oblique astigmatism. RESULTS The mean deviation calculated from measured TCA was +0.56° (Group I), -0.32° (Group II), -0.37° (Group III), and -1.00° (Group IV). For with-the-rule astigmatism, the TCA axis agreed most with Group I (6.5% outliers > 5° deviation). For against-the-rule astigmatism, Group IV and Group II were closest to the measured TCA axis (1.5% and 3% outliers with > 5° deviation). CONCLUSIONS The means of the calculated axis were similar to the measured TCA, but the proportion of outliers with an axis deviation of greater than 5° showed remarkable differences. Isolated anterior keratometric value measurements showed the fewest outliers in with-the-rule astigmatism. In against-the-rule astigmatism, Abulafia-Koch calculation should be used for axis determination. [J Refract Surg. 2021;37(9):642-647.].

Abstract
PURPOSE To assess rotational stability, axial stability, decentration, and tilt of the Rayner RAO800C single-piece hydrophobic acrylic intraocular lens (IOL) (Rayner Intraocular Lenses Ltd) from end of surgery to 4 to 7 months postoperatively. METHODS Surgeries were performed at the Department of Ophthalmology at the Medical University of Vienna. A total of 130 eyes of 68 patients received an aspheric hydrophobic Rayner RAO0800C IOL. IOLs were randomly implanted to the 0 ± 10, 45 ± 10, 90 ± 10, or 135 ± 10 degree axis. Baseline measurement was performed with the patient still supine on the operating table. Axis alignment after 1 hour, 1 week, 1 month, and 4 months was evaluated by retroillumination pictures. Postoperative IOL decentration, tilt, and aqueous depth at 4 months were assessed using an anterior segment swept-source optical coherence tomography. RESULTS Absolute median IOL rotation from end of surgery to 4 months was 2.4 degrees (range: 0.0 to 85.0 degrees). Median IOL rotation from end of surgery to 1 hour, 1 hour to 1 week, 1 week to 1 month, and 1 month to 4 months was 1.6 (range: 0.0 to 86.2), 1.1 (range: 0.0 to 28.8), 0.6 (range: 0.0 to 5.2), and 0.7 (range: 0.0 to 2.6) degrees. Respective proportions of IOLs rotating more than 5, 10, and 20 degrees from end of surgery to 4 months were 23.9%, 11.0%, and 6.4%. Horizontal and vertical decentration at 4 months was -0.09 ± 0.14 and 0.09 ± 0.14 mm, respectively. Horizontal and vertical tilt at 4 months was -4.78 ± 1.36 and -1.58 ± 1.10 degrees, respectively. A posterior axial shift of 0.052 ± 0.055 mm was observed from 1 week to 4 months. CONCLUSIONS Although median IOL rotation appeared to be low, a significant proportion of IOLs rotated postoperatively. Decentration and tilt values were generally low. A minimal posterior optic shift was observed after 1 week. [J Refract Surg. 2021;37(2):112-118.].

Abstract
Objective: To describe the results of toric intraocular lens (IOL) implantation in three atypical cases (four eyes) with cataract and corneal astigmatism: one with bilateral keratoconus, one with pellucid marginal degeneration and one with buphthalmos due to congenital glaucoma. Methods: Three patients (four eyes) with corneal astigmatism (one with bilateral keratoconus, one with pellucid marginal degeneration and one with buphthalmos due to congenital glaucoma) underwent cataract surgery by standard phacoemulsification and the implantation of toric IOLs in the capsular bag. The presence of corneal astigmatism was identified by automated keratometry and confirmed by Scheimpflug-based corneal tomography. The toric IOL implanted in all cases was a single-piece AcrySof Toric IOL (Alcon Laboratories, Inc.). Postoperative visual acuity, the reduction in the refractive astigmatism, the spherical equivalent (SE) and the rotational stability of the toric IOL were recorded for all the patients. Results: Visual acuity increased and the refractive astigmatism decreased in all cases. In Case 1, the right eye achieved a postoperative uncorrected visual acuity (UCVA) of 20/ 20, a decrease in the refractive astigmatism from -3 DCyl to -0.75 DCyl and a spherical equivalent (SE) of -0.25. The left eye presented with a best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) of 20/ 20, a decrease in the refractive astigmatism from -1.50 DCyl to -1.25 DCyl and a SE of -0.25. In Case 2, the postoperative UCVA was 20/ 20, with a decrease in the refractive astigmatism from -5.5 DCyl to -1 DCyl and a SE for the right eye of 0.00 D. In Case 3, the postoperative BCVA was 20/ 20, with a decrease in the refractive astigmatism from -4.75 DCyl to -1.50 DCyl and a SE of +1.25. No misalignment of the axis of the toric IOL was observed in any patient at subsequent follow-ups. The postoperative visual acuity was satisfactory for all the patients. Conclusions: Toric intraocular lenses can be an effective option for implantation in patients with cataract and corneal astigmatism in atypical situations such as mild to moderate keratoconus, pellucid marginal degeneration and buphthalmos due to congenital glaucoma. Predicting the refractive outcome is difficult in atypical cases and the surgeon should have accuracy and consistency in the preoperative measurements, for achieving satisfactory postoperative results.

Abstract
PURPOSE To compare clinical outcomes after cataract surgery and bilateral implantation of 2 diffractive trifocal toric intraocular lenses (IOLs). SETTING Hospital da Luz, Lisbon, Portugal. DESIGN Double-arm, randomized, prospective case series. METHODS A total of 60 patients were randomly allocated to receive bilateral implantation of either the FineVision Pod FT toric IOL (PhysIOL) or the AcrySof IQ PanOptix toric IOL (Alcon). Visual and refractive outcomes, contrast sensitivity, IOL misalignment, and quality of vision outcomes (QoV questionnaire) were evaluated at 3 months postoperatively. Surgically induced astigmatic changes were evaluated by vector analysis. RESULTS Each group (FineVision toric and AcrySof IQ PanOptix toric) comprised 30 patients (60 eyes). No significant differences between groups were found regarding uncorrected and corrected distance and near visual outcomes (P ≥ .333). Mean postoperative distance-corrected intermediate visual acuity at 60 cm was 0.04 ± 0.09 logarithm of the minimum angle of resolution (logMAR) and 0.09 ± 0.11 logMAR in the PanOptix and Pod FT group, respectively (P = .032). Mean IOL axis misalignment was 1.59 degrees ± 2.15 degrees (PanOptix group) and 1.89 degrees ± 3.31 degrees (Pod FT group) (P = .821). Mean magnitude of error of astigmatic correction was -0.09 diopters (D) and -0.11 D in the PanOptix group and Pod FT group, respectively (P = .333). Contrast sensitivity, QoV scores for the presence of photic phenomena, and the level of spectacle independence were similar in both groups (P > .05). CONCLUSIONS Both trifocal toric IOLs allowed complete patient visual restoration, and good spectacle independence and good visual quality outcomes. The PanOptix IOL provided superior intermediate visual acuity for distances around 60 cm.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The objective of this study was to assess the impact of 0.50 diopter (D) positive or negative defocus on visual function in patients implanted with trifocal and trifocal toric intraocular lenses (IOLs). METHODS The study included patients implanted with the AcrySof IQ PanOptix IOL or the PanOptix Toric. Visual acuity (VA) at high (100%), medium (50%) and low (10%) contrast, contrast sensitivity function (CSF), and halo perception were assessed three months after surgery. Explorations were performed with corrected distance visual acuity (CDVA), with a positive defocus of +0.50D (myopization) and with a negative defocus of -0.50D (hyperopization). RESULTS The study included 60 eyes of 60 patients (30 eyes with PanOptix and 30 eyes with PanOptix Toric). For both groups, VA was better for all contrast settings at the CDVA situation (P<0.05 in all cases). For low spatial frequencies, no differences in CSF were found among the three refractive situations in either group. For higher frequencies, the results showed an overall trend for better CSF results for the CDVA situation. The halo effect was lower for the CDVA situation if compared to myopization and hyperopization in both the PanOptix and the PanOptix Toric groups (P<0.05 for all cases). CONCLUSIONS There is an impact on visual quality and halo perception in patients implanted with trifocal or trifocal toric IOLs even for low residual refractive errors.

Effect of femtosecond laser-assisted steepest-meridian clear corneal incisions on preexisting corneal regular astigmatism at the time of cataract surgery. Int J Ophthalmol 2020; 13:1895-1900. [PMID: 33344187 DOI: 10.18240/ijo.2020.12.08] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/25/2019] [Accepted: 06/10/2020] [Indexed: 11/23/2022] Open
Abstract
AIM To investigate the clinical efficacy and safety of femtosecond laser-assisted steepest-meridian clear corneal incisions for correcting preexisting corneal astigmatism performed at the time of cataract surgery. METHODS This prospective case series study comprised consecutive age-related cataract patients with corneal regular astigmatism (range: +0.75 to +2.50 D) who had femtosecond laser-assisted steepest-meridian clear corneal incisions (single or paired). Corneal astigmatism was performed with the Pentacam preoperatively and 3mo postoperatively. Total corneal astigmatism and steepest-meridian measured in the 3-mm central zone were used to guide the location, size and number of clear corneal incision. The vector analysis of astigmatic change was performed using the Alpins method. RESULTS Totally 138 eyes of 138 patients were included. The mean preoperative corneal astigmatism was 1.31±0.41 D, and was significantly reduced to 0.69±0.34 D (equivalent to difference vector) after surgery (P<0.01). The surgically-induced astigmatism was 1.02±0.54 D. The correction index (ratio of target induced astigmatism and surgically-induced astigmatism: 0.72±0.36) as well as the magnitude of error (difference between surgically-induced astigmatism and target induced astigmatism: -0.29±0.51) represented a slight under correction. For angle of error, the arithmetic mean was 1.11±13.70, indicating no significant systematic alignment errors. CONCLUSION Femtosecond-assisted steepest-meridian clear corneal incision is a fast, customizable, adjustable, precise, and safe technique for the reduction of low to moderate corneal astigmatism during cataract surgery.

J Cataract Refract Surg 2020; 45:1340-1345. [PMID: 31470944 DOI: 10.1016/j.jcrs.2019.03.030] [Citation(s) in RCA: 23] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/20/2018] [Revised: 03/08/2019] [Accepted: 03/25/2019] [Indexed: 12/28/2022]
Abstract
This meta-analysis studied toric intraocular lens (IOL) alignment accuracy using image-guided and manual marking methods by comparing the axis misalignment of toric IOLs, percentage of eyes with toric IOL axis misalignment within ±5 degrees, postoperative astigmatism, difference vector, and postoperative uncorrected distance visual acuity. The methodological quality was assessed using the modified Quality Assessment of Diagnostic Accuracy Studies-2 tool. Continuous variables were analyzed using weighted mean differences, and dichotomous variables were compared using the odds ratio. Five studies comprising a total of 257 eyes were analyzed. For heterogeneity, neither sensitivity analysis nor the Egger test detected statistical findings. The image-guided marking group had smaller toric IOL axis misalignment (P < .00001), less postoperative astigmatism (P = .003), and a smaller difference vector (P < .00001) than the manual marking group. The overall evidence from the studies indicates that image-guided marking is better than manual marking, resulting in less axis misalignment, a smaller difference vector, and less postoperative astigmatism.

Abstract
Purpose To evaluate the rotational stability, visual acuity and refractive error after sulcus implantation of a secondary toric IOL. Setting One clinical practice in Haugesund, Norway. Design Non-interventional single-arm diagnostic study. Methods Eligible subjects who had previous successful primary cataract or refractive lens exchange surgery in one or both eyes and the AddOn® secondary toric IOL implanted in the sulcus were evaluated at a single postoperative diagnostic visit to measure visual outcomes. Subjects with surgical complications (either primary or secondary) or pathology that would affect best-corrected visual acuity (eg, amblyopia) were excluded. Clinical evaluations at the diagnostic visit included measurement of visual acuity, manifest refraction and IOL orientation. Results Eighteen eyes were evaluated. After secondary IOL implantation, mean residual refractive astigmatism was significantly reduced (1.66 ± 0.92 to 0.32 ± 0.25 D). There was no appreciable change in the spherical equivalent refraction. Sixteen of 18 eyes (89%) had residual refractive astigmatism ≤0.50D, and no eye had more than 0.75D after secondary IOL implantation. Mean UCVA was 0.00 ± 0.03 logMAR, with no eyes worse than 0.10. Mean BCVA was −0.05 ± 0.03 logMAR (20/20+2), with all eyes having BCVA of 0.00 logMAR. The mean change in orientation was near zero, with a mean absolute change of 4.9 ± 3.7 degrees. Sixteen of 18 eyes (89%) had a lens orientation ≤10 degrees from intended, with no eye oriented more than 13 degrees from intended. Conclusion The AddOn® toric sulcus IOL significantly reduced postoperative refractive astigmatism in patients with high astigmatism after their primary cataract or RLE surgery, providing very good uncorrected distance vision.

Management of Cataract in Patients with Irregular Astigmatism with Regular Central Component by Phacoemulsification Combined with Toric Intraocular Lens Implantation. J Ophthalmol 2020; 2020:3520856. [PMID: 32411427 PMCID: PMC7210554 DOI: 10.1155/2020/3520856] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/17/2019] [Accepted: 03/23/2020] [Indexed: 12/15/2022] Open
Abstract
Purpose To evaluate visual acuity (VA) and refractive status in patients with cataract and irregular astigmatism with a regular central component after phacoemulsification with implantation of a toric intraocular lens (IOL). Methods Patients with cataract associated with irregular astigmatism with a regular central component were enrolled. All patients underwent phacoemulsification and toric IOL implantation. Postoperative visual acuity, residual astigmatism, toric IOL rotation, higher-order aberration, and objective and subjective visual quality were measured 3 months after surgery. Results Twenty-three eyes were included in the study. The logMAR corrected and uncorrected distance visual acuity values were decreased at 3 months postoperatively (p < 0.005). The preoperative average corneal astigmatism and postoperative residual astigmatism were 1.15–6.97 D (1.99 ± 1.26 D) and 0–2.75 D (0.65 ± 0.57 D), respectively. The average IOL rotation was 3.17 ± 2.01°. Some objective indicators of visual quality, including the modulation transfer function (p < 0.05), Strehl ratio (p < 0.005), 100% VA (p < 0.005), 20% VA (p < 0.005), and 9% VA (p < 0.005), were significantly higher than the corresponding preoperative values. The objective scatter index (p < 0.005) was significantly lower than that before surgery. The postoperative VF-14 scale score was 83.99 ± 14.58. Conclusion Toric IOL implantation has a good corrective effect on certain specific types of corneal irregular astigmatism with cataract. This effect can be attributed to its ability to correct the regular component of irregular astigmatism. The indications for toric IOL implantation could be expanded to some extent, thereby bringing benefit to more patients.

Abstract
Purpose To describe the results of phacoemulsification and implantation of toric intraocular lenses (IOLs) in patients with cataract and keratoconus. Patients and methods Prospective study of 4 patients (4 eyes) with cataract and keratoconus who underwent phacoemulsification with implantation of a toric IOL. Two different toric IOLs were used: AcrySof IQ SN6AT9 and AT Torbi 709M(P). Corneal tomography was performed preoperatively using Scheimpflug technique with Pentacam. Astigmatism was regular or slightly irregular in all patients. Postoperatively, best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA), astigmatism, spherical equivalent, and complications were recorded for all patients. Follow-up time was between 4 weeks and 7 months. Results BCVA increased and astigmatism decreased in all patients. BCVA increased from 20/50 to 20/40 in patient 1, from 20/63 to 20/20 in patient 2, from 20/40 to 20/32 in patient 3, and from hand motion to 20/40 in patient 4. Astigmatism decreased from −6.12 to −3.75 D in patient 1, from −4.62 to −1.75 D in patient 2, from −9.0 to −3.0 D in patient 3, and from −8.0 to −2.75 D in patient 4. One patient developed pseudophakic cystoid macular edema, but at last follow-up after 6 months the edema had resolved. Another patient developed posterior capsular opacification after 2 months. No misalignment of the axis of the IOL was observed. Conclusion Correction of both astigmatism and cataract with phacoemulsification and implantation of a toric IOL can be an effective and safe choice for patients with cataract and keratoconus. However, predicting the refractive outcome in cataract surgery is difficult in patients with keratoconus, and the surgeon should be aware of different sources of biometric errors and the possible consequences.
