Comparison of clinical outcomes between limbal relaxing incisions and toric int...
Freitas,Giuliano de Oliveira; Boteon,Joel Edmur; Carvalho,Mario Jose; Pinto,Rogério de Melo CostaObjective: To compare refractive and vectorial outcomes of limbal relaxing incisions (LRI) versus toric intraocular lenses (IOL) in the treatment of preexisting corneal astigmatism at the time of phacoemulsification. Methods: This longitudinal observational case series assessed 62 eyes of 31 consecutive cataract patients with preoperative corneal astigmatism between 0.75 and 2.50 diopters in both eyes. Patients...
Alpins and thibos vectorial astigmatism analyses: proposal of a linear regressi...
Freitas,Giuliano de Oliveira; Boteon,Joel Edmur; Carvalho,Mario Jose; Pinto,Rogerio de Melo CostaPURPOSE: To determine linear regression models between Alpins descriptive indices and Thibos astigmatic power vectors (APV), assessing the validity and strength of such correlations. METHODS: This case series prospectively assessed 62 eyes of 31 consecutive cataract patients with preoperative corneal astigmatism between 0.75 and 2.50 diopters in both eyes. Patients were randomly assorted among two phacoemulsifi...
