Levron A, El Chehab H, Agard E, et al. - In this monocentric retrospective comparative study, researchers compared the visual and refractive outcomes of total keratometry (TK) vs anterior keratometry (AK) measurements of the IOLMaster 700 (Carl Zeiss Meditec AG, Jena, Germany) in surgery for age-related cataract with preexisting corneal astigmatism. The whole cohort consisted of 405 eyes distributed as follows after 2:1 matching: 158 eyes in the AK group and 79 eyes in the TK group. There was no significant difference between the AK and TK groups in mean absolute error in predicted residual astigmatism and mean centroid error in predicted residual astigmatism. TK of the IOLMaster 700® provides excellent refractive and visual results, similar to those obtained in AK mode, without demonstrating its superiority for corneas with regular astigmatism.
