First, preoperative reference marks were placed at 6 o’clock and 3 or 9 o’clock position under slit-lamp biomicroscope in the outpatient department using the manual method. Using the reference unit of IGS, the ocular surface data were captured and overlaid. The difference was then measured (preoperative axis misalignment). In the operating room, the orientation of the steep meridian of the manual method was determined based on this reference mark under the surgical microscope. Just before surgery, the digital degree gauge of IGS was overlaid on the ocular surface, and the difference was then measured (total axis misalignment). We calculated the intraoperative axis misalignment by subtracting preoperative axis misalignment from the total axis misalignment.Results: Mean absolute preoperative, intraoperative, and total axis misalignment values were 3.87± 3.95 degrees, 5.46± 4.42 degrees, and 4.98± 4.49 degrees, respectively. In preoperative, intraoperative, and total misalignment, the ratios of 10 degrees or greater were 10 (14.7%), 12 (17.6%), and 20 (19.8%) eyes, respectively.Conclusion: The manual method that determines the fixed position of the toric intraocular lens (IOL) may cause large misalignment compared with the IGS, suggesting that using manual method could sometimes result in a large misalignment of toric IOL implantation.Keywords: cataract surgery, image-guided system, steep meridian, manual methodOhashi TKojima TDove Medical Pressarticlecataract surgeryimage-guided systemsteep meridianmanual methodOphthalmologyRE1-994ENClinical Ophthalmology, Vol Volume 14, Pp 4135-4144 (2020)
