Résumé
To compare visual and refractive outcomes of monofocal intraocular lenses (IOLs) with limbal relaxing incisions (LRI) with 'off-the-shelf' use of toric IOLs (TIOLs), with a fixed 2-dioptre cylinder (DC) correction, for cataract patients with pre-existing corneal astigmatism in a public-sector setting. Seventy-seven patients (77 eyes, first treated eye) with visually significant cataract and pre-operative corneal astigmatism ≥2.00 DC were randomised to receive either 'off-the-shelf' TIOLs, with a fixed 2.00 DC cylinder correction (39 eyes), or monofocal IOLs (38 eyes) with LRIs. The concept of fixing the cylindrical correction was to minimise costs, allow a full TIOL bank to be available and eliminate the need for individual TIOL ordering. Outcome measures were uncorrected distance visual acuity (UDVA), corrected distance visual acuity (CDVA) and refraction. Astigmatic changes were evaluated using the Alpins vector method. Mean UDVA improved from logMAR 0.88 (SD 0.56)[~20/150] pre-operatively to 0.18 (SD 0.19)[~20/30] post-operatively in TIOL group, versus 0.82 (SD 0.55)[~20/130] to 0.27 (SD 0.15)[~20/40] in monofocal/LRI group (P = 0.02; 95% CI: -0.17, -0.01). Mean CDVA improved from logMAR 0.40 (SD 0.26)[~20/50] to 0.01 (SD 0.12)[~20/20] in TIOL group, and 0.41 (SD 0.38)[~20/40] to 0.06 (SD 0.12)[~20/25] in LRI group (P = 0.07; 95% CI: -0.11, 0.01). Average post-operative refractive cylinder in TIOL group was 1.35 DC (SD 0.84 DC) and in LRI group 1.91 DC (SD 1.07 DC) (P = 0.01; 95% CI: -1, -0.12). Mean difference vector magnitude was 1.92 DC (SD 1.08 DC) in LRI group and 1.37 DC (SD 0.84 DC) in TIOL group (P = 0.02; 95% CI: 0.11, 0.99). TIOLs with a fixed 2.00 DC correction during cataract surgery may improve UDVA, reduce post-operative cylinder and result in a more reliable astigmatic correction compared with monofocal IOLs with LRIs.

BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES
To compare visual and refractive outcomes of monofocal intraocular lenses (IOLs) with limbal relaxing incisions (LRI) with 'off-the-shelf' use of toric IOLs (TIOLs), with a fixed 2-dioptre cylinder (DC) correction, for cataract patients with pre-existing corneal astigmatism in a public-sector setting.
SUBJECTS/METHODS
Seventy-seven patients (77 eyes, first treated eye) with visually significant cataract and pre-operative corneal astigmatism ≥2.00 DC were randomised to receive either 'off-the-shelf' TIOLs, with a fixed 2.00 DC cylinder correction (39 eyes), or monofocal IOLs (38 eyes) with LRIs. The concept of fixing the cylindrical correction was to minimise costs, allow a full TIOL bank to be available and eliminate the need for individual TIOL ordering. Outcome measures were uncorrected distance visual acuity (UDVA), corrected distance visual acuity (CDVA) and refraction. Astigmatic changes were evaluated using the Alpins vector method.
RESULTS
Mean UDVA improved from logMAR 0.88 (SD 0.56)[~20/150] pre-operatively to 0.18 (SD 0.19)[~20/30] post-operatively in TIOL group, versus 0.82 (SD 0.55)[~20/130] to 0.27 (SD 0.15)[~20/40] in monofocal/LRI group (P = 0.02; 95% CI: -0.17, -0.01). Mean CDVA improved from logMAR 0.40 (SD 0.26)[~20/50] to 0.01 (SD 0.12)[~20/20] in TIOL group, and 0.41 (SD 0.38)[~20/40] to 0.06 (SD 0.12)[~20/25] in LRI group (P = 0.07; 95% CI: -0.11, 0.01). Average post-operative refractive cylinder in TIOL group was 1.35 DC (SD 0.84 DC) and in LRI group 1.91 DC (SD 1.07 DC) (P = 0.01; 95% CI: -1, -0.12). Mean difference vector magnitude was 1.92 DC (SD 1.08 DC) in LRI group and 1.37 DC (SD 0.84 DC) in TIOL group (P = 0.02; 95% CI: 0.11, 0.99).
CONCLUSIONS
TIOLs with a fixed 2.00 DC correction during cataract surgery may improve UDVA, reduce post-operative cylinder and result in a more reliable astigmatic correction compared with monofocal IOLs with LRIs.
