Tina Patel, Contact Lens Opticianat Feel Good Contacts’ explains astigmatism as… Corneal: the cornea is not spherical Lenticular: the lens is affected rather than the cornea Astigmatism can also be described as regular or irregular. Regular astigmatismis more common. It occurs when the two curve...
Two different strategies were used for simulated treatments aiming to regularize irregular corneal optics: With both strategies correction of anterior corneal surface irregularities (corneal HOAs) were intended. Correction of total corneal astigmatism (TCA) and RA was intended as well with strategies 1 ...

All 66 patients had visually significant cataract and regular corneal astigmatism values measured with Scheimpflug imaging (Pentacam HR, Oculus) between 0.5 D and 4.5 D, including both anterior and posterior corneal surface using vector summation18. None of the patients had any ocular or systemic con...
64 The experts agreed that POCCI on the most curved meridian has the potential to correct preexisting regular astigmatism of up to 1.5 D and is more effective than performing a single CCI.61,64 However, the technique has not become popular due to its lack of predictability, absence of ...
