Rotational Stability of Toric Presbyopia-Correcting IOLs

In this interview from AAO 2019, Dr. David Chang compares the rotational stability of 2 commonly used toric presbyopia-correcting IOLs. His retrospective study, performed with his collaborator Bryan Lee, MD, compared the rotational stability of the toric Symfony versus the toric ReSTOR +3. Compared with the Symfony, the toric ReSTOR was more likely to be within 5 degrees or 10 degrees of target, and significantly less likely to require a return trip to the operating room to correct malrotations. The findings suggest a difference in underlying IOL platform stability.
