Abstract

Nd:YAG laser capsulotomy may cause TIOL rotation as well as tilt and decentration, resulting in a change in the TIOL's corrective effect on corneal astigmatism. Although this change was clinically insignificant, it may be beneficial to consider that TIOL rotational misalignment may occur in patients undergoing early capsulotomy.
