Reduction of Corneal Astigmatism With Toric Intraocular Lens Implantation in Congenital Cataract

N/ACompletedNCT02040129

Kyungpook National University Hospital4 enrolled

Overview

This study was conducted to evaluate changes of reduction of corneal astigmatism with toric intraocular lens(IOL) in congenital cataract.

This retrospective study included 6 eyes from 4 patients (mean age 7.2 years) with congenital cataract who had an astigmatism of 2.5 to 4.0 D prior to cataract surgery. Review of preoperative and postoperative visual acuity (UCVA), refraction, toric axis was performed.
