Keratometry First & then Counseling Screen the patient for Keratometry first and then counsel patient for cataract surgery Patients having 1D Cyl are candidate for toric IOL
PERSONAL CONFIDENCE
Implanted AcrySof ReSTOR bilaterally in father and unilaterally in mother (other eye awaiting surgery) Post Op VA 6/6 and N5 Both are satisfied and spectacle free (Do not use computers)

PURPOSE
To evaluate visual outcome and astigmatic correction following implantation of the first 100 AcrySof Toric IOLs at our centre Patients with cataract and coexistent regular Corneal Astigmatism of >1.25D All cases (except one under GA) underwent topical phacoemulsification with AcrySof toric IOL or Acrysof Restor Toric (n=5) implantation
VISUAL OUTCOME
Visual acuity and Refraction checked at 1st postop day, 2 weeks and 6 weeks Final correction at 6 weeks IOL rotation also checked at 6 weeks correlating with incision placed at steep axis
RESULTS
No. of AcrySof toric IOLs used since 2008 100 (87 patients) 74 cases were unilateral; 13 had bilateral toric IOL Gender distribution
58 29
Male Female
075-1.0D
DISCUSSION
In our series, 65% patients achieved 0.5D astigmatism and 95% patients achieved postoperative astigmatism within 0.75D 95% patients achieved an unaided visual acuity of 6/12 or better markedly decreasing their spectacle dependence for distance vision
DISCUSSION/CONCLUSION
One patient had CME (BCVA 6/12) One 8 year old child had surgery for developmental cataract and achieved postoperative BCVA of 6/12 (amblyopia) Only 1 patient had IOL rotation > 5 (postoperative cylinder - 0.75D) AcrySof Toric IOL shows excellent rotational stability, if placed accurately during surgery due to its sticky surface
45 years patient, high hypermetropia Refractive Error (+ 16.0 D with 1.50 D Cyl at 170 degree) K Reading : 44.00/45.50 (1.50 D Cyl at 170 degree) Early lenticular changes Post Op UAVA 6/9 (Near N5 with plus2.5 D Add)
