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 degrees) and steep and flat meridian deviations (not 90 degrees) were classified as 0, 1~9, 10~19, 20~29, 30~39, and over 30 degrees. Meridian deviation was measured with Sagittal map of rotating Scheimpflug camera (Pentacam®: Oculus, Wetzlar, Germany) using PicPickTools (NGWIN, Seoul, Korea). Results: Residual astigmatism (D) of the 0 (0.48±0.12, 0.53±0.12) and the 1~9 (0.59±0.15, 0.63±0.17) were significantly lower than those of 10~19 (0.85±0.21, 0.85±0.26), 20~29 (0.96±0.31, 0.99±0.34), and over 30 degrees groups (1.06±0.36, 1.02±0.38) both in steep meridian deviations and horizontal and vertical meridian deviations at 2 months (P< 0.05). Postoperative mean UCVA (logMAR) of 0 (0.08±0.03, 0.08±0.03) (logMAR) and 1~9 (0.09 ± 0.04, 0.08 ± 0.04) were significantly improved compared to those of 10~19 (0.13±0.04, 0.15±0.05), 20~29 (0.16±0.05, 0.17±0.05), and over 30 degrees groups (0.19±0.07, 0.18±0.06) both in steep meridian deviations and horizontal and vertical meridian deviations (P< 0.05).Conclusions: Correction of astigmatism with toric intraocular lens implantation is not accurate in cornea with steep meridian deviations and steep and flat meridian deviations of more than 10 degrees. Therefore, care should be taken when we perform toric intraocular lens implantation in patients with irregular corneal meridian.

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 Background: To evaluate the effect of toric intraocular lens implantation in cataract patient with corneal opacity and high astigmatism. Methods: 31 eyes of 31 patients who underwent cataract surgery with toric intraocular lens implantation were included. All patients had corneal opacity with astigmatism. Preoperative total corneal astigmatism was determined considering posterior astigmatism using a rotating Scheimpflug camera (Pentacam®: Oculus, Wetzlar, Germany). At 2 months after toric intraocular lens implantation, we evaluated residual astigmatism, uncorrected visual acuity (UCVA) and best corrected visual acuity (BCVA).Results: Postoperative UCVA and BCVA (0.30 ± 0.17, 0.22 ± 0.16LogMAR) were statistically improved compared to preoperative UCVA and BCVA (1.2 ± 0.34, 1.1 ± 0.30LogMAR, respectively) (P<0.01). Postoperative residual refractive astigmatism (1.2 ± 0.35D) was statistically reduced compared to preoperative refractive astigmatism (2.4 ± 0.65D) (P<0.05). Preoperative and postoperative total corneal astigmatism values were not statistically different. All eyes achieved postoperative visual acuity as good as or better than preoperative one. The size of corneal opacity covering pupil had significant negative correlation with postoperative UCVA and BCVA (logMAR) (R=0.91 P<0.05 and R=0.92 P<0.05, respectively)Conclusion: Toric intraocular lens implantation can improve UCVA, BCVA, and refractive astigmatism in cataract patient with corneal opacity. The size of corneal opacity covering pupil is the major prognostic factor for postoperative visual improvement. Therefore, toric intraocular lens implantation should be considered for cataract patients who have corneal opacity with high astigmatism.

The percentage of corneal opacity covering pupillary area had significant negative correlation with postoperative UCVA and BCVA (logMAR) (R=-0.88 P<0.00001 and R=-0.87 P<0.00001, respectively) Conclusion: Toric intraocular lens implantation can improve UCVA, BCVA, and refractive astigmatism in cataract patient with corneal opacity. The percentage of central corneal opacity covering pupillary area is the major prognostic factor for postoperative visual improvement. Therefore, toric intraocular lens implantation should be considered for cataract patients who have corneal opacity with high astigmatism.
