Objective To assess the clinical outcomes and rotational stabilility of toric intraocular lenses (IOL) for the correction of preexisting corneal astigmatism in cataract patients with myopia.Methods Forty-seven eyes of 32 patients were enrolled in this prospective study.Preoperative corneal astigmatism was more than 1.0 diopter (D) for all eyes.All patients underwent similar phaeoemulsification combined with toric IOL implantation.Uncorrected visual acuity (UCVA),best corrected visual acuity (BCVA),preoperative corneal astigmatism,anticipated residual astigmatism,postoperative residual astigmatism and toric lens axis were measured.The postoperative IOL position was assessed at 1 day,1 week,1 month and 3 months using digital pictures under a slit lamp.Data were analyzed using chi-square test and paired t test.Results At 3 months following surgery,91% of the eyes had 0.5 or better UCVA,much higher than preoperative BCVA (x2=80.67,P<0.05).Mean preoperative corneal astigmatism was 2.11±0.83 D and postoperative refractive cylinder was 0.47±0.35 D,indicating a significant decrease in refractive cylinder after surgery (t=12.48,P<0.05).The mean rotation of the toric IOLs was 3.75°±1.39° after 3 months postoperatively.Only 3 eyes had more than 5° of rotation after the operation and none eye had more than 10° of rotation.Conclusion Toric IOLs provide cataract patients with better UCVA,good rotational stability and predictability in the correction of corneal astigmatism.The combined procedure of phacoemulsification and posterior chamber toric IOL implantation is an effective option for the correction of preexisting corneal astigmatism in cataract patients with myopia.
