6. Toric Intraocular Lenses Why should you incorporate them into your practice?

7. We have to meet or exceed our patients demands for excellent vision Knowing what is available and how to use it is critical to your practice success Cataract surgery is your patients opportunity to enhance their vision lifestyle Astigmatism and premium IOLs are available to meet these expectations.

8. The Question now is…. Why is it in life that you would never give glasses without correcting the patients astigmatism, but when I do cataract (now) surgery I don’t fix it?

9. How do we treat it? So What About Astigmatism? Vision without astigmatism Vision with astigmatism 1.5D cyl @ 90 Vision with astigmatism 3.0D cyl @ 90

26. Benefits of AcrySof ® Aspheric Optics Clinical improvements demonstrated over spherical control lens: Improved Functional vision Increased Contrast Sensitivity Reduction of spherical aberration and total high order aberrations (HOAs)

27. This region of defocused light can reduce image quality. Spherical Aberration The Problem: Occurs when light rays are over-refracted at periphery of optics.

28. This results in enhanced clarity and image quality. Aspheric Optics The Solution: Negative spherical aberration aligns the light rays to compensate for positive spherical aberration.

29. Reduction in Spherical Aberrations AcrySof ® IQ Toric IOLs aspheric design** offers statistically significant reduction in both spherical and total higher order aberrations 4 .  Differences favor AcrySof ® IQ IOL overall and at each visit ( p <0.0001).

30. Contrast Sensitivity The aspheric design of AcrySof ® IQ IOL offers improved contrast sensitivity – vital for visual performance. AcrySof ® IQ IOL showed statistically significant improvement 4 in mesopic contrast sensitivity over the control lens in situations with and without glare at 6 cycles per degree (cpd) using the Vector Vision CSV-1000 § **. *Contrast sensitivity was measured using Vector Vision CSV-1000. §At 3 cpd, there was no significant change in mesopic contrast sensitivity.

34. Enhanced Image Quality IOLs that correct some (but not all) spherical aberration result in vision similar to a young, natural crystalline lens. Spherical aberration in human eyes: 0.08 microns for populations with normal vision 5 . AcrySof ® IQ IOL: Corrects about .20 microns of spherical aberration. Designed to leave a residual ~0.08 microns. AcrySof ® IQ Toric IOL is designed with a similar level of spherical aberration correction.

35. Contrast Sensitivity, continued AcrySof ® IQ IOL improves contrast sensitivity in both well-lit and low-light conditions 4 . Virtually the same image quality** whether aperture size is 3 or 5 mm. Image quality was characterized by measuring modular transfer function (MTF) in a model eye utilizing simulated cornea with typical adult human spherical aberration.

36. Improved Functional Vision The aspheric design of the AcrySof ® IQ IOL provides improved functional vision in challenging, low-visibility environments . Allows patients to more quickly detect and identify objects. Allows for greater reaction time. May increase patient safety.

37. Functional Vision Study Patients were tested monocularly in a night driving simulator in simulated city and rural settings under normal, glare and fog conditions. Patients with AcrySof ® IQ IOL performed functionally better than the control lens in 34 of 36 conditions tested 4 .

38. Functional Vision Study, cont’d AcrySof ® IOL aspheric design makes a difference, performing better in 34 of 36 conditions.

39. AcrySof ® IQ Toric Surgical Planning and Procedural Considerations

40. AcrySof ® Toric IOL Procedural Considerations Surgeon performs standard cataract procedure from capsulorhexis through phacoemulsification AcrySof ® Toric IOL implantation requires only minor variation from standard procedure: 1. IOL calculation 2. Marking of the eye 3. IOL alignment (on-axis)

41. Patient Selection (minimum criteria) Regular corneal astigmatism Intact capsule Continuous curvilinear capsulotomy (CCC) In the bag lens placement

42. IOL Calculation Step I: Determine required spherical power using preferred biometric method Step II: Utilize AcrySof ® Toric IOL Calculator to determine: The recommended IOL model, and Optimal axis location of the IOL in the capsular bag

43. AcrySof ® IQ Toric IOL Calculator Makes precise surgical planning easy! Intuitive input Patient data Keratometry IOL spherical power Surgically induced astigmatism Incision location Powerful output Recommended IOL model and spherical equivalent power Optimal axis placement Magnitude and axis of anticipated residual astigmatism

44. IOL Alignment I. Gross Alignment Rotate IOL clockwise to approximately 15 degrees short of desired position Completed while the IOL is unfolding in the capsular bag Can be rotated after IOL has unfolded, if needed, but take care to have capsular bag inflated with OVD

46. IOL Alignment II. Stabilize IOL During OVD Removal Take care to prevent IOL from rotating past intended axis during OVD removal 2 nd instrument Silicone I/A tip

48. IOL Alignment III. Final Alignment Carefully rotate IOL clockwise onto the intended axis of alignment Tap IOL down into capsular bag to seat lens in place

50. Discussion points Show them the astigmatism and take it out of the phoropter Use a vision questionnaire to determine their spectacle needs

51. They are your patient, they love you! This is an opportunity to educate them about their visual function and get to know them better. Use of a portable DVD in your practice is a great option! Educational DVDs are free Eyemaginations Financing options

52. 1.50 dioptors or more equals Toric in my practice (experience from multifocals)

53. Dealing with the unhappy patient I have very few in this group! Patients accept residual astigmatism 20/Happy!

54. Discussion points LASIK enhancements are an option Toric outcomes for FDA is much better than LASIK and PRK “ I would never give you a spectacle or contact lens prescription that did not treat your astigmatism.”

55. Practice builder for you…. 90% of LASIK patients buy an expensive pair of sunglasses Options of plano progressive lenses. If they are happy they are going to tell other patients about your practice! Reimbursement is $110.00/eye in addition to standard co-management reimbursement through insurance (~150.00).

56. Summary This astigmatism type Premium IOL is very forgiving! All you have to say is, “You have a lot of astigmatism! Your surgeon is going to discuss with you about your astigmatism and ways to address it.” Recommend!
