Purpose: To investigate the accuracy of three distinct postoperative toric intraocular lens (TIOL) rotational stability measurement methods.

Setting: Department of Ophthalmology and Optometry, Medical University of Vienna, Austria.

Design: Single-center, prospective, interventional clinical trial.

Methods: 128 eyes of 81 patients with age-related cataract received a hydrophobic acrylic TIOL Clareon CNW0T3-9. To evaluate rotational stability, three distinct assessment methods were used: (Rotix) comparing the TIOL axis at the end of surgery (EoS) to 1 week (1w) and 6 months (6m) postoperatively using reference vessels at the sclera, (Slit-lamp) comparing the intended axis (IA) with the axis at 1w and 6m using slit-lamp photography using the horizontal axis as a reference and (Casia) comparing the IA with the axis at 1w and 6m using the axis determination tool of a swept-source anterior segment optical coherence tomographer (Casia 2).

Results: Mean absolute rotation from EoS/IA to 6m differed significantly among Rotix (1.33± 1.99° [0.01;19.80]), Casia (2.88± 2.64° [0.00; 19.00]), and Slit-lamp (4.38± 3.38° [0.02;19.38]), as indicated by Friedman's test (X2=71.852, p<0.001). Bland-Altman coefficients (CoR) of repeatability indicated the closest agreement of results between Casia and Rotix, with a CoR of ±3.95°, followed by Slit-lamp and Casia (±6.82°), and lastly, between the Slit-lamp and Rotix (±7.19°).

Conclusion: When assessing true TIOL rotational stability, it is imperative to use fixed anatomical landmarks as reference and establish a baseline at the end of surgery. When assessing TIOL rotation along the horizontal axis, considering cyclorotation of the eye is crucial and must not be underestimated.

Background: To determine whether accounting for posterior corneal surgically induced astigmatism (SIA) would improve toric intraocular lens power calculation prediction error.

Methods: A total of 189 eyes of 148 patients undergoing routine cataract surgery were included in the study. Standard and posterior keratometry were measured pre- and postoperatively.

Purpose: To evaluate the 12-month rotational stability and outcomes of V4c toric Implantable Collamer Lenses (TICLs) (STAAR Surgical) located at two different lens orientations (horizontal or oblique).

Methods: This retrospective study included a total of 403 eyes with TICL implantation, enrolled between January 2021 and December 2022, that were divided into two groups based on the minimum intended angle off the horizontal axis: horizontal with 263 eyes at an angle ±22.5 degrees or less and oblique with 140 eyes at a minimum intended angle of greater than ±22.

Purpose: To evaluate the accuracy of toric intraocular lens (IOL) axis prediction between two preoperative measurement devices: the optical biometry (IOLMaster 500 or 700) and the dual Scheimpflug topography (Galilei G4).

Methods: Medical records of 64 eyes from 44 patients who underwent phacoemulsification and posterior chamber toric IOL (Zeiss AT TORBI 709M) implantation between July 2017 and January 2022 were reviewed. All patients underwent preoperative evaluation by optical biometry (IOLMaster 500 or IOLMaster 700) and Galilei G4.

Purpose: To explore the significance of changes in anterior chamber depth (ΔACD) and astigmatism between 4 and 8 weeks following uneventful phacoemulsification.

Patients And Methods: Anterior chamber depth (ACD, mm), autorefractometry and subjective refraction were monitored in pseudophakic eyes implanted with non-toric IOLs (group 1, SA60AT, n=36; group 2, SN60WF, n=34; group 3, ICBOO, n=16) and phakic control group (n=30, group 4a, for ACD and autorefractometry) over four weeks. Changes in subjective refractions were compared with repeatability in normal phakic eyes (n=30, group 4b).
