Long-term outcome of custom toric intraocular lens for treating high astigmatism in case of cataract associated with pellucid marginal corneal degeneration

Pellucid marginal corneal degeneration (PMCD) is a progressive corneal ectasia that ultimately results in high regular astigmatism and correction of this astigmatism is always challenging. However, when a PMCD patient develops a cataract, it provides a golden opportunity to treat this coexisting ast...

description Pellucid marginal corneal degeneration (PMCD) is a progressive corneal ectasia that ultimately results in high regular astigmatism and correction of this astigmatism is always challenging. However, when a PMCD patient develops a cataract, it provides a golden opportunity to treat this coexisting astigmatism with toric intraocular lens (IOL) implantation. Regular toric IOLs would correct astigmatism only up to 6 diopters in the IOL plane but higher astigmatism would require customization of such IOLs. Our case report describes the long term outcomes of customized toric IOL to tackle this high astigmatism during cataract surgery in PMCD cases.
