Introduction
  • high amount of corneal astigmatism after cataract
    surgery
  • delays visual recovery
  • compromises the ultimate optical outcome.
  • Spectacle correction
  • distortion due to meridional magnification,
  • difficulties with binocular function.
  • Contact lenses
  • not all patients can tolerate contact lenses

3
Introduction To reduce corneal astigmatism
  • Intraoperative method
  • variation in size, location, and type of incision
  • adjust suture depth
  • preplaced sutures to facilitate wound closure
  • use of surgical keratometers
  • suture adjustment technique
  • selective suture cutting
  • Postoperative method
  • Wound revision
  • Corneal wedge resection
  • Tensioning suture
  • Astigmatic keratotomy
  • Transverse keratotomy
  • Photorefractive keratectomy (PRK)
  • Laser in situ keratomileusis(LASIK)

4
Purpose
  • To evaluated the effect of laser assisted in
    situ keratomileusis (LASIK) procedure on eyes
    with residual astigmatism after cataract surgery.

5
Methods
  • Retrospectively reviewed the medical records of
    11 eyes of 11 patients who had undergone cataract
    surgery from March 2002 to November 2005.
  • Cataract Operation
  • 10 eyes Phacoemulsification PCL
    implanatation
  • 1 eye Extracapsular cataract extraction PCL
    transscleral fixation ant. vitrectomy
  • LASIK (11 eyes) was performed on 11 eyes
  • The ablation zone 6.0 mm
  • the transition zone 8.0 mm
  • minimum of 250 µm of the stromal bed was
    maintained

6
Methods
  • Inclusion criteria of astigmatic correction
  • refractive myopic or mixed astigmatism over 2.0D
  • Stable refraction (change less than 0.50 D
    between two consecutive examinations)
  • symptomatic anisometropia,
  • Inability to wear spectacles
  • Contact lens intolerance
  • no history of systemic collagen vascular disease
  • no history of ocular disease(e.g. glaucoma,
    retinopathy)
  • central corneal thickness greater than 500 µm

refactive surgery, best corrected visual acuity
was equal to or better than preoperatively

Spherical equivalent refraction and cylinderical
refraction
Spherical equivalent and cylinderical refraction
decreased significantly after LASIK. ( p

Postoperative visual acuity
UCVA and BCVA were improved at 2 weeks after
surgery and were stable until 6 months after
surgery. ( plt0.05)
The final BCVA was improved by 1 line in 4 eyes
(36.4) and was unchanged in 7 eyes (63.6) at 6
months.

  • an effective, predictable, stable procedure
    for correction of residual myopic or mixed
    astigmatism over 2.0 D with a low spherical
    component after cataract surgery.
