ABSTRACT
Purpose:
To evaluate the visual and refractive outcomes of astigmatic cataract patients following opposite clear corneal incision (OCCI) combined with rotationally asymmetric multifocal intraocular lens (IOL) implantation.Setting:
Department of Ophthalmology, Zhongshan Hospital (Xiamen), Fudan University, People's Republic of China.Design:
Retrospective cohort study.Methods:
This study comprised 58 cataract eyes of 54 patients with corneal astigmatism who underwent phacoemulsification and rotationally asymmetric multifocal IOL implantation which received either OCCI (OCCI group) or a single clear corneal incision (SCCI group). The follow-up period was 3 months after surgery. Distance, intermediate and near visual acuity, refractive outcomes, and corneal anterior keratometry were compared between the two groups. Vector analysis was used to evaluate astigmatism correction.Results:
Three months after surgery, the distance, intermediate and near visual acuity, and sphere remained comparable between the two groups, but a significant difference was detected in residual astigmatism and anterior corneal keratometric astigmatism. In the OCCI group, the residual astigmatism and keratometric astigmatism were -0.60 ± 0.29 D and 0.59 ± 0.28 D, respectively, which were lower than those in SCCI groups (-1.18 ± 0.47 D and 1.15 ± 0.45 D, both p < 0.05). In vector analysis, the difference vector (DV), angle of error (AoE), absolute AoE, index of success (IoS) and correction index (CI) were statistically significantly different between the two groups (p < 0.05).Conclusion:
OCCI combined with rotationally asymmetric multifocal intraocular lens implantation showed predictable and desirable efficacy in treating cataract patients with astigmatism.
