Comparison of Toric Foldable Iris-Fixated Phakic Intraocular Lens Implantation and Limbal Relaxing Incisions for Moderate-to-High Myopic Astigmatism
PURPOSE To compare the effectiveness of toric foldable iris-fixated phakic intraocular lens (pIOL) implantation and non-toric foldable iris-fixated pIOL implantation with limbal relaxing incisions (LRIs) for correcting moderate-to-high astigmatism in myopic eyes. MATERIALS AND METHODS The medical records of 146 patients (195 eyes) with myopic astigmatism who underwent toric foldable iris-fixa...
متن کاملComparison of Contrast Sensitivity in Eyes with Toric and Aspheric Intraocular Lenses
Approximately 15–20% of patients with cataracts have more than 1.5 diopters (D) of pre-existing astigmatism1. Reducing this preoperative astigmatism can improve visual outcomes after cataract surgery. The astigmatism can be reduced with the phacoemulsification incisions, with corneal or limbal relaxing incisions and with excimer laser keratectomy. Another alternative for astigmatism correction ...
متن کاملHigh-cylinder toric intraocular lens implantation versus combined surgery of low-cylinder intraocular lens implantation and limbal relaxing incision for high-astigmatism eyes
Clinical outcomes were compared between high-cylinder toric intraocular lens (IOL) implantation and the combined surgery of low-cylinder toric IOL implantation and limbal relaxing incision (LRI) for correcting preexisting high-amplitude corneal astigmatism. Fifty-seven eyes with preexisting corneal astigmatism of 2.5 diopter (D) or greater were divided into the following two groups: (1) eyes th...
متن کاملLimbal Relaxing Incision during Phacoemulsification for the Correction of Astigmatism
.................................. Purpose: To determine the difference in mean post-operative astigmatism of patients having limbal relaxing incisions with phacoemulsification as compared to phacoemulsification alone for the correction of pre-existing corneal astigmatism. Material and Methods: This study was conducted in the Civil Hospital Karachi Eye Unit II, from 1 st December 2009 1 st Dece...
متن کاملManagement of Corneal Astigmatism by Limbal Relaxing Incisions during Cataract Surgery
Purpose: To evaluate the safety and efficacy of limbal relaxing incisions (LRIs) for corneal astigmatism correction during phacoemulsification Methods: 24 eyes of 24 patients with the mean age of 65.71 years (range: 55 to 83 years) with senile cataracts and mean corneal astigmatism of 1.9±0.83 diopters (D) (range: 1.5 to 3.5 D) were included in this study. All LRIs were performed during phacoem...
