Abstract:
PURPOSE: To evaluate clinical outcome of refractive lens exchange with implantation of AT LISA Toric IOL implantation METHODS: Twenty one patients (42 eyes) were followed after clear lens extraction and binocular multifocal toric intraocular lens (IOL) implantation. Uncorrected distant visual acuity (UCDVA), uncorrected intermediate visual acuity (UCIVA) and uncorrected near visual acuity (UCNVA), spectacle independence, residual astigmatism, IOL misalignment, posterior capsular opacification (PCO) and visual disturbances were measured. Follow up was at least six months. RESULTS: Preoperative spherical equivalent reduced from +3,2±4,0D preoperatively to -0,25±0,75D postoperatively. Preoperative refractive cylinder was reduced from +2,00±0,75 D to -0,25±0,50 D after the surgery. UCDVA, UCIVA and UCNVA were satisfying with high percentage of spectacle independence; only two patients sometimes have to wear glasses for distance vision. IOL stability was good, only to one patient we had to do reposition of IOL. CONCLUSION: AT LISA Toric multifocal IOL provide safe, predictable and stable option for correction of combined presbyopia and astigmatism with low rate of misalignment and surgical repositioning.
