Purpose: To evaluate the Verion™ image guided system compared with the axis registration method for toric Intraocular Lens
(IOL) alignment in a Japanese population.
Methods: This retrospective, comparative case series study included eligible patients undergoing cataract surgery and toric IOL implantation (SN6AT3-6, Alcon) at a single Japanese surgical site (Miyata Eye Hospital, Miyazaki, Japan). Patients were divided into two groups based on the method used to determine axis alignment for toric IOL implantation; the image-guided group, with an intraoperative guidance system (Verion, Alcon), and the manual and topography-based axis registration group. At 1 month postoperatively, subjective cylindrical power and Uncorrected Distance Visual Acuity (UDVA) were evaluated.
