| Abstract: | BackgroundA prospective study to evaluate the rotational stability of toric intraocular lenses (IOLs).MethodsA prospective study of 30 eyes in 29 patients. All patients with regular astigmatism of range 0.75–4 D were included in the study. Exclusion criteria included irregular corneal astigmatism, post-refractive surgery and corneal dystrophies. All patients underwent uncomplicated phacoemulsification cataract surgery by the same surgeon. Three eyes with corneal astigmatism of 0.75–1.5 D were implanted with the AcrySof SA60T3 IOL, eight eyes with astigmatism between 1.5 and 2.0 D received the SA60T4 IOL and eight eyes with astigmatism between 2.0 and 2.50 D received the SA60T5 and rest with astigmatism of 2.5 D and higher received SA60T6 and above models. Main outcome measure was the post-operative position of the lens, assessed at day 1, 1 week, 1 month and 6 months, using toric marker and the slit lamp.ResultsThere was no significant rotation of IOL observed during a follow-up period of 6 months. Overall, the post-operative rotation was within 5° in 95% of cases. There was no trend for either clockwise or anti-clockwise rotation. However, IOL rotation happens mostly within the first month of surgery, and if it is significant, it requires early repositioning.ConclusionToric IOLs are very effective and consistent in correcting astigmatism during the cataract surgery. Once placed to its position, toric IOLs demonstrate rotational stability in the capsular bag. |
