Astigmatism Management in Cataract Surgery with the Acrysof Toric Intraocular Lens (IOL)

Purpose: To present clinical data on residual refractive astigmatism, uncorrected visual acuity (UCVA), and rotational misalignment of the Acrysof Toric IOL (SN60TT) after implantation in cataract surgery. Setting/venue: Department of Ophthalmology, Academic Hospital Maastricht. Methods: The AcrySof Toric IOL contains a toric component on the posterior surface of the optic, but is otherwise structurally identical to the AcrySof single-piece IOL. Three toric models were evaluated in cylinder powers of 1.50D (SN60T3, n=13), 2.25D (SN60T4, n=10), and 3.0D (SN60T5, n=11) at the IOL plane. An Acrysof Toric T3–5 IOL w…
