RESUMO

PURPOSE: To assess the repeatability and agreement of corneal power and astigmatism obtained from the Cassini point-source color light-emitting diode (LED) topographer, Humphrey Atlas 9000 Placido-based corneal topographer, and Lenstar LS-900 low-coherence reflectometer in normal eyes. SETTING: Cullen Eye Institute, Baylor College of Medicine, Houston, Texas, USA. DESIGN: Evaluation of diagnostic test or technology. METHODS: Consecutively enrolled patients with normal corneas were enrolled. Three sets of measurements were obtained using the color-LED topographer, the Placido topographer, and the reflectometer. Vector analysis was used in the astigmatism analysis. The repeatability was evaluated using the within-subject standard deviation, coefficient of variation (CoV), and intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC). Agreement was verified using Bland-Altman plots. The paired Student t test was used to assess statistical significance. RESULTS: Thirty-two eyes (32 patients) were evaluated. All devices provided highly repeatable corneal power and astigmatism measurements (ICC > 0.9) except for the Placido topographer with regard to J45 (ICC = 0.721). The color-LED topographer and the reflectometer obtained similar mean values of corneal power, astigmatism magnitude, J0, and J45 (P > .05), which was also true when comparing the color-LED topographer and the Placido topographer, except for the mean corneal power (P = .0007). The Bland-Altman plots showed a wide data spread for all analyzed variables. CONCLUSIONS: The color-LED topographer provided highly repeatable corneal power and astigmatism measurements. Even though it obtained values similar to those of the reflectometer and the Placido topographer, the wide data spread discourages their interchangeable use to assess corneal power and astigmatism.

RESUMO

Correction of corneal astigmatism is a key element of cataract surgery, since post-surgical residual astigmatism can compromise the patient's uncorrected visual acuity. Toric intraocular lenses (IOLs) compensate for corneal astigmatism at the time of surgery, correcting ocular astigmatism. They are a predictable treatment. However, accurate measurement of corneal astigmatism is mandatory for choosing the correct toric IOL power and for planning optimal alignment. When calculating the power of toric IOLs, it is important to consider anterior and posterior corneal astigmatism, along with the surgically induced astigmatism. Accurate toric lens alignment along the calculated meridian is also crucial to achieve effective astigmatism correction. There are several techniques to guide IOL alignment, including the traditional manual marking technique and automated systems based on anatomic and topographic landmarks. The aim of this review is to provide an overview on astigmatism management with toric IOLs, including relevant patient selection criteria, corneal astigmatism measurement, toric IOL power calculation, toric IOL alignment, clinical outcomes and complications.

O tratamento do astigmatismo corneal é um fator importante na cirurgia de catarata, uma vez que o astigmatismo residual pode comprometer a acuidade visual não corrigida do paciente após a cirurgia. Lentes intraoculares (LIOs) tóricas compensam o astigmatismo corneal no momento da cirurgia, corrigindo o astigmatismo ocular. Ademais, constituem um tratamento previsível. Entretanto, é necessário obter uma medida precisa do astigmatismo corneal para selecionar o poder correto da LIO tórica e para planejar o melhor alinhamento da mesma. No cálculo do poder da LIO tórica, é importante considerar o astigmatismo das superfícies anterior e posterior da córnea, além do astigmatismo induzido na cirurgia. O alinhamento da lente tórica no meridiano planejado é essencial para se obter uma correção efetiva do astigmatismo. Há várias técnicas para guiar o alinhamento da LIO, incluindo a técnica de marcação manual tradicional e sistemas que se baseiam em pontos de referência anatômicos e topográficos. O objetivo desse artigo de revisão é discutir o uso de LIOs tóricas no tratamento de astigmatismo corneal, incluindo os critérios de seleção dos pacientes, a medida do astigmatismo corneal, o cálculo do poder da LIO tórica, o alinhamento da LIO tórica, os resultados clínicos e as complicações.
