Purpose: To present clinical results of toric intraocular lens (IOL) implantation for preexisting astigmatism correction and determine the time of any postoperative rotation.
Patients And Methods: Twenty-nine eyes of 19 patients underwent uncomplicated phacoemulsification and were implanted with an Acrysof ((c)) toric IOL. Uncorrected visual acuity, residual astigmatism, and postoperative rotation of the IOL were estimated one and six months after the operation.
Results: Uncorrected visual acuity was >/=0.5 in 26 of 29 eyes (89.7%) and >/=0.8 in 19 of 29 patients (65.5%). The mean toric IOL axis rotation was 2.2 +/- 1.5 degrees (range 0.6-7.8 degrees ) one month postoperation and 2.7 +/- 1.5 degrees (range 0.9-8.4 degrees ) six months postoperation.
Conclusion: Implantation of one-piece hydrophobic acrylic toric IOLs appears to have acceptable stability, which encourages visual outcome and emerges as an attractive alternative for correction of refractive astigmatism.

Article Synopsis
- The study evaluated visual outcomes and patient satisfaction up to 3 months after cataract surgery using hydrophobic acrylic intraocular lenses (IOLs).
- It included 28 patients and found excellent distance and intermediate visual acuity, with 98% of patients achieving good intermediate vision (20/25 or better).
- The results demonstrated high levels of patient satisfaction (88%) and successful lens delivery by surgeons (89% success rate), indicating the effectiveness of the Clareon IOL and Monarch IV system for cataract surgery.
