Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This study aims to assess the rotational stability of the new collameric Nanoflex toric intraocular lens (T-IOL) by STAAR inserted in astigmatic patients after cataract surgery.

The purpose of this study is also to determine whether the use of a toric intraocular lens (T-IOL) improves visual acuity.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

A good rotational stability of toric intraocular lenses (T-IOL) allows an accurate refractive correction. However, many aspects -both pre-operative and post-operative- can interfere causing T-IOL rotation and misalignment.

Complete preoperative ocular evaluation is performed including slit-lamp examination, uncorrected distance visual acuity (UDVA), best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA), Javal keratometry, corneal Scheimplug tomography (Pentacam), optical biometry (IOL Master), Goldman applanation tonometry and fundus evaluation through dilated pupils. The spherical IOL power is calculated considering the axial length obtained with optical biometry, the magnitude of astigmatism derived from Javal keratometry and the steepest axis obtained with corneal tomography. The power of the toric IOL is determined with the online Staar Toric IOL calculator. The reference landmarks are also marked preoperatively with a sterile methylene blue fine point pen. The marking is rechecked in the operating theatre with the electronic toric marker ASICO.

Postoperative evaluation for IOL alignment and rotational stability is performed with slit-lamp photography on dilated pupils. Images are captured with Haag Streit slit lamp BQ 900 and are evaluated with the image-analysis software Protractor (Staar).

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Phacoemulsification with toric Nanoflex IOL implantation

Intervention Type PROCEDURE

A self-sealing incision is made with a 2.2mm knife at 110°. Phacoemulsification is performed. The foldable nanoFlex toric IOL is injected in the capsular bag using the nanoPoint single-use injector system (STAAR) or 1620 sofTip Injector (ASICO). The IOL is rotated to align the cylinder axis with the steep corneal meridian using Z align function by Callisto Eye. Every movement of the IOL axis marks are noted.
