Cataract surgery has become a refractive procedure in which emmetropia is the goal, with the implantation of extended depth-of-focus or multifocal intraocular lenses (IOLs) being the commonly selected option to restore vision beyond the far distance. The selection criteria for implanting these lenses can differ from those for monofocal IOLs and even between technologies, as eye characteristics can affect postoperative visual performance. Corneal astigmatism is an eye characteristic that can affect visual performance differently, depending on the implanted IOL. The magnitude of corneal astigmatism, the tolerance of the IOL to this astigmatism, economic aspects, comorbidities, and the efficacy of astigmatism treatment are factors that can make surgeons’ doubt as to what astigmatism treatment should be applied to each patient. This review aims to summarize the current evidence related to low astigmatism tolerance in presbyopia-correcting lenses, the efficacy achieved through corneal incisions, and their comparison with the implantation of toric IOLs.

We report a case of full-thickness penetration of an arcuate incision during femtosecond-assisted cataract surgery. A 78-year-old female underwent femto-cataract surgery with femto-arcuate incision. She presented with decreased vision and corneal edema 3 weeks later and was found to have full-thickness penetration of the arcuate incision with an internal wound gape. The patient was managed with closure of the internal wound gape using full-thickness corneal sutures. This resulted in a clear cornea with complete visual recovery. Careful depth setting via optical coherence tomography at the time of femto-cataract surgery is vital for minimizing the risk of this complication.
