- Abstract:
- Astigmatism is the most frequent refractive error worldwide followed by hyperopia and myopia. Internal astigmatism has to be differentiated from external astigmatism. Furthermore, external astigmatism can be divided into "with the rule", "against the rule" and "oblique". The summation of internal and external astigmatism results in the refractive cylinder. Astigmatism has for a long time been regarded as a two-dimensional phenomenon; however, only a three-dimensional consideration expanded the view on existing analytical methods (topography and tomography). Alpins' vector analysis is a commonly used method for treatment planning. Multiple options exist for treatment of astigmatism with conservative approaches, such as eyeglasses or toric contact lenses as well as various surgical procedures, such as photorefractive keratectomy, femtosecond laser-assisted keratotomy, laser in-situ keratomileusis, small incision lenticule extraction and toric intraocular lens implantation.
