    Abstract Residual astigmatism and anisometropia significantly affect patients' vision and quality of life even in clear grafts after corneal transplant. This study reviewed and summarized the role of toric intraocular lenses (IOLs) in phakic and pseudophakic eyes after penetrating keratoplasty (PKP) and deep anterior lamellar keratoplasty in correcting residual astigmatism. 342 eyes from 20 studies with iris-clipped toric IOL, ciliary sulcus toric implantable collamer lens, piggyback sulcus toric IOL, or posterior chamber toric IOL implantations for phakic, pseudophakic, or eyes undergoing cataract surgery after keratoplasty were included. Visual, refractive, and predictability outcomes were encouraging. Secondary realignment rate and complications were low. Endothelial cell loss secondary to phakic toric IOLs might be a concern over the long-term, particularly in iris-clipped IOLs in PKP eyes. Toric IOLs represent a viable option in the treatment of residual astigmatism in postkeratoplasty eyes, resulting in improved visual acuity and reduced anisometropia.

    Abstract Aim: To compare the safety, efficacy, and predictability outcomes of combined sub-Bowman's keratomileusis (thin flap laser in situ keratomileusis [LASIK]) and accelerated crosslinking (CXL) using two different irradiation durations.
    Methods: A retrospective comparative study of patients with percent tissue altered ≥35%, undergoing simultaneous CXL during sub-Bowman's keratomileusis were recruited. Following riboflavin application, they underwent ultraviolet-A (UVA) irradiation (18 mW/cm
    Results: The baseline characteristics were similar between the 40 eyes/patients treated using the 2-min protocol and the 33 eyes/patients treated with the 3-min protocol (
    Conclusions: A comparable volume of crosslinked corneal tissue can be achieved by using a shorter UVA irradiation duration. Additional duration of UVA irradiation could lead to delay in visual rehabilitation after simultaneous sub-Bowman's keratomileusis and CXL.

    Abstract Purpose: To evaluate the outcomes of cataract surgery in patients with cytomegalovirus (CMV) anterior uveitis and factors associated with final visual outcome.
    Setting: Hong Kong Eye Hospital, Hong Kong.
    Design: Retrospective case series.
    Methods: History, clinical characteristics, corrected distance visual acuity (CDVA), medications, and complications of CMV anterior uveitic eyes that underwent cataract surgery between 2010 and 2020 were reviewed.
    Results: This study included 26 eyes of 26 patients undergoing phacoemulsification. The median duration of disease was 4.8 years, and the median quiescent period preoperatively was 2.3 years. None required pupil manipulation or had significant intraoperative complications. The median CDVA improved from 20/100 (interquartile range [IQR] 20/200 to 20/50) preoperatively to 20/30 (IQR 20/40 to 20/25) at 1 year and 20/35 (IQR 20/50 to 20/30) at the last follow-up at a median of 4.9 years postoperatively ( P < .001). CDVA improved in 19 eyes (73.1%) and was ≥20/40 in 18 eyes (69.2%). In the multivariate regression model, preoperative use of topical 0.15% ganciclovir (β = 0.33, 95% CI 0.17 to 0.48, P < .001) and adjunctive intraoperative intracameral dexamethasone 0.4 mg (β = 0.19, 95% CI 0.01 to 0.36, P = .043) were associated with a better final CDVA. Loss of CDVA and poor postoperative CDVA visual acuity were mostly attributed to uveitic glaucoma, but preoperative glaucoma or the number of antiglaucoma medications did not affect final CDVA.
    Conclusions: Cataract surgery in eyes with CMV anterior uveitis was safe and CDVA significantly improved and remained sustained postoperatively. Topical ganciclovir 0.15% preoperatively and intracameral corticosteroid intraoperatively seem to maximize the final visual outcome.

    Abstract Introduction: To compare intrasession agreement and repeatability of wavefront aberration measurements from three different aberrometers obtained using Hartmann-Shack, ray tracing and automated retinoscopy methods, as well as their interdevice agreement.
    Methods: Three consecutive measurements were obtained using the Pentacam AXL Wave, the iTrace and the OPD-Scan III in 47 eyes of 47 patients. Wavefront refractions, root mean square of total aberrations (RMS total), RMS of higher-order aberrations (HOA) and second-, third- and fourth-order HOAs were exported for 4-mm pupils. Wavefront refractions were converted into vector components: M, J
    Results: The intrasession agreement and repeatability of RMS HOA were comparable between the three devices; both the Pentacam AXL Wave and the OPD-Scan III had better intrasession agreement and repeatability for the RMS total than the iTrace (p ≤ 0.02). Intrasession repeatability for the majority of second- and third-order aberrations was better on the Pentacam AXL Wave than on the iTrace (p ≤ 0.01) and OPD-Scan III (p ≤ 0.04), although their agreement and repeatability in spherical aberration were comparable (p ≥ 0.24). Significant systematic differences and proportional bias were detected for almost all refraction power vectors and Zernike coefficients among the three devices.
    Conclusions: In this study, all three devices provided good-to-excellent agreement for aberration measurements. Most of the individual Zernike's components were not exchangeable between different aberrometers. Their relative intrasession performance in agreement and repeatability varied significantly across different ocular aberration parameters.
