Abstract Details

Purpose:

To evaluate the efficacy and short-term stability of customized toric IOL implantation (Acriva BB Toric, VSY, Turkey) in 3 eyes of 3 patients with cataract and high corneal astigmatism associated with pellucid marginal degeneration (PMD)

Setting:

Istanbul Training and Research Hospital

Methods:

Retrospective review of patients who had a diagnosis of PMD based on the slit-lamp findings and corneal topography. The manifest refraction, cylinder power of toric IOL, rotation, best corrected and uncorrected visual acuities (BCVA, UCVA) were noted.

Results:

The manifest refraction significantly decreased from +4.0 -8.75 x 90 to -0.50 -3.00x45 by +10 D cylinder toric IOL in case 1, from +2.0 -7.75 x 85 to -0.25 -2.50x90 with +11 D cylinder toric IOL in case-2 and from +5.75 -7.75 x 80 to -0.25x85 by IOL with 10.5 cylinder power at postoperative 6 month. In all eyes, UCVA and BCVA significantly improved. No rotation that required surgery for realignment was occurred.

Conclusions:

Customized toric IOL implantation may be effective option to correct astigmatism in patients with PCD. FINANCIAL DISCLOUSRE: NONE
