Characteristics of surgically induced astigmatism after standardized microincisional cataract surgery with a superior limbal incision.

Overall, we observed differences in K- and TK-derived SIA, and changes in SIA magnitude over time. For post-surgical interventions, postoperative astigmatism meridian values should be measured to base treatments. Astigmatism magnitude showed a tendency to decrease for steep-meridian incisions and to increase in flat-meridian incisions.
