Visual performance of the intraindividual implantation of a trifocal intraocular lens in the bag and a +4.0 D bifocal intraocular lens in the sulcus with optic capture created by femtosecond laser-assisted cataract surgery

AbstractThis study evaluated the accuracy of total keratometry (TK) and standard keratometry (K) for intraocular lens (IOL) power calculation in eyes treated with femtosecond laser-assisted cataract surgery. The retrospective study included a retrospective analysis of data from 62 patients (91 eyes) who underwent uneventful femtosecond laser-assisted cataract surgery with Artis PL E (Cristalens Industrie, Lannion, France) IOL implantation by a single surgeon between May 2020 and December 2020 in Severance Hospital, Seoul, South Korea. The new IOLMaster 700 biometry device (Carl Zeiss Meditec, Jena, Germany) was used to calculate TK and K. The mean absolute error (MAE), median absolute error (MedAE), and the percentages of eyes within prediction errors of ± 0.25 D, ± 0.50 D, and ± 1.00 D were calculated for all IOL formulas (SRK/T, Hoffer-Q, Haigis, Holladay 1, Holladay 2, and Barrett Universal II). There was strong agreement between K and TK (intraclass correlation coefficient = 0.99), with a mean difference of 0.04 D. For all formulas, MAE tended to be lower for TK than for K, and relatively lower MAE and MedAE values were observed for SRK/T and Holladay 1. Furthermore, for all formulas, a greater proportion of eyes fell within ± 0.25 D of the predicted postoperative spherical equivalent range in the TK group than in the K group. However, differences in MAEs, MedAEs, and percentages of eyes within the above prediction errors were not statistically significant. In conclusion, TK and K exhibit comparable performance for refractive prediction in eyes undergoing femtosecond laser-assisted cataract surgery.

Abstract Objectives To compare the efficacy of astigmatic correction between simultaneous femtosecond laser-assisted intrastromal arcuate keratotomy (AK) combined with femtosecond laser-assisted cataract surgery (FLACS) and toric intraocular lens (IOL) implantation during cataract surgery in moderate astigmatism. Design: Retrospective observational study, tertiary care medical center Methods We retrospectively reviewed medical records of patients who underwent astigmatic correction via femtosecond laser-assisted intrastromal AK (AK group; 27 eyes of 27 patients) with FLACS or toric IOL implantation (toric IOL group; 21 eyes of 21 patients). All patients had senile cataracts with corneal astigmatism ranging from + 1.00 to + 2.00 diopters (D) before cataract surgery. We measured visual acuity, intraocular pressure, automated keratometry, manifest refraction and topography preoperatively and at 1-day, 1-month, 3-month, and 6-month postoperatively. Results Refractive astigmatism was significantly decreased in both groups. The mean preoperative and 6-month postoperative refractive astigmatism were 1.85 ± 1.07 and 0.99 ± 0.51 D, respectively, in the AK group (P = 0.028), and 1.84 ± 0.81 and 0.68 ± 0.21 D, respectively, in the toric IOL group (P < 0.001). There was no significant difference in refractive astigmatism between the two groups at 6-month postoperatively (0.99 ± 0.51 vs 0.68 ± 0.21 D, P = 0.057). At 6-month postoperatively, parameters for vector analysis of refractive astigmatism showed no statistical difference between the two groups. Corneal astigmatism was significantly decreased in the AK group. There was significant difference in corneal astigmatism from topography and automated keratometer between the two groups at 6-month postoperatively (0.94 ± 0.40 vs 1.53 ± 0.46 D, P = 0.018 for topography and 0.98 ± 0.69 vs 1.37 ± 0.41 D, P = 0.032 for automated keratometer). Conclusions Femtosecond laser-assisted intrastromal AK in FLACS could be an effective procedure for reducing astigmatism as well as toric IOL implantation in cataract surgery.
