Comparison of penetrating femtosecond laser-assisted astigmatic keratotomy and toric intraocular lens implantation for correction of astigmatism in cataract surgery

Abstract This study tried to compare the clinical outcomes of femtosecond laser-assisted astigmatic keratotomy (FSAK) and toric intraocular lens (IOL) implantation for astigmatism correction and identify factors affecting the efficacy of FSAK and toric IOL implantation in astigmatism correction.

Thirty-one eyes underwent toric IOL implantation and 35 eyes underwent FSAK. The refractive astigmatism was significantly decreased in both toric IOL (P = 0.000) and FSAK group (P = 0.003). The correction index (CI) of refractive astigmatism was 0.84 ± 0.39 in the toric IOL and 0.71 ± 0.60 in the FSAK group. There was no difference between the two groups (P = 0.337). The CI of the FSAK group was significantly lower than in the toric IOL group when TIA was more than 1.5 D (P = 0.006), when correcting against-the-rule (P = 0.017), and limbus-to-limbus astigmatism (P = 0.008). In conclusion, toric IOL implantation is an effective and safe procedure for correcting preoperative astigmatism in cataract surgery in the short-term observation.Hoon NohYoung-Sik YooKyoung Yoon ShinDong Hui LimTae-Young ChungNature PortfolioarticleMedicineRScienceQENScientific Reports, Vol 11, Iss 1, Pp 1-10 (2021)
