The optimized method of marking the axis for toric intraocular lenses implantation in patient with uveal cataract (clinical case)

Purpose. The aim was to evaluate feasibility and efficacy of simultaneous marking of capsulorhexis and astigmatism axis for toric intraocular lenses implantation in patients with complicated uveal cataract and narrow pupil. Materials and methods. The surgery of a crystalline lens was performed to a patient B. with the toric iol implantation. The intraoperative marking was performed with application of original marker. Results and discussions. It has been revealed that anterior chamber deepened, angle became wider and the eye optical system became astigmatically neutral. Toric IOL is centered and totally makes up for initial corneal astigmatism. Reviewing obtained data one should note that this particular case illustrates feasibility of cataract surgery with implantation of toric IOLs in patients with narrow pupil.
