Trifocal toric intraocular lens implantation for cataract in a young patient with congenital nystagmus

Abstract

We report a case of Trifocal Toric IOL implantation in a patient having cataract with congenital nystagmus. A detailed ocular assessment for pre- and postoperative uniocular and binocular visual acuity, nystagmus characteristics, abnormal head posture, fundus examination, IOP measurement, and biometry was carried out. Preoperative visual acuity was 6/12p and 6/18p in right and left eye, respectively, with binocular visual acuity of 6/12p. Postoperative visual acuity was 6/12 in right and 6/9 in the left eye, respectively. Binocular visual acuity was 6/9 for far and N6 at 40 cm for near after implantation of a trifocal toric IOL. No change in nystagmus characteristics was observed.
