“…It has been reported that the toric pIOL has high efficacy, safety, and predictability for the correction of myopic astigmatism. [1][2][3] Moreover, recent studies 4,5 report that the toric pIOL has better efficacy and predictability than photorefractive keratectomy or laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) in eyes with high myopic astigmatism. However, unlike iris-fixated pIOLs, the toric pIOL does not hold the iris tissue; thus, there is a risk for loose fixation of the pIOL.…”

“…Another toric pIOL is the Visian Implantable Collamer Lens (Staar Surgical), which can be implanted behind the iris in the ciliary sulcus. Elies et al 30 report that 52.5% of eyes with this pIOL were within G1.0 D of the intended correction 6 months postoperatively.…”

“…However, the validity of use of ICL in lower degrees of myopia and myopic astigmatism as a primary treatment modality has already been verified 4. For the correction of myopic astigmatism in particular, both LASIK and toric implantable collamer lens (T-ICL) have been shown to be safe and effective in various studies 58. It was found that LASIK was effective for correction of astigmatism up to 4.5 D,6 while T-ICL provided safe and stable results with astigmatism up to 7 D in long-term studies 8…”
