Popis: To evaluate the visual outcomes, refractive outcomes and rotational stability of a toric piggyback intraocular lens (1stQ AddOn, GmbH, Mannheim, Germany) for astigmatic refractive error in pseudophakic eyes.Visual and refractive outcomes were assessed based on the standard graphs for reporting refractive surgery outcomes. Rotational stability was assessed according to the Intraocular Lens (IOL) standards of the International Organisation for Standards.Twenty-two eyes of 17 patients (age: 65.1 ± 9.3 years) underwent toric piggyback IOL insertion. After a minimum follow-up of 3 months, 18 eyes (82%) achieved an uncorrected distance visual acuity (UDVA) of 0.00 logMAR (20/20) or better and all eyes achieved 0.1 logMAR (20/25). Mean UDVA improved from 0.27 ± 0.03 to 0.12 ± 0.03 and 0.04 ± 0.04 at one and 3 months (allIn this cohort of patients, the 1stQ AddOn toric monofocal piggyback IOL resulted in very good visual and refractive outcomes and showed reasonable rotational stability. This IOL appears to be an effective treatment option for residual astigmatic refractive error in pseudophakic eyes.
