Inclusion criteria
* Cataract * Age 21 and older * Regular corneal astigmatism ≥ 1.5 D * written informed consent prior to surgery
Exclusion criteria
* Relevant other ophthalmic diseases such as: pseudoexfoliation, traumatic cataract corneal scars, and other co-morbidity that could affect capsule bag stability ( e.g. Marfan syndrome) * High myopia (\> 29 mm AL) * Irregular corneal astigmatism on corneal topography * In case of pregnancy (pregnancy test will be taken preoperatively in women of reproductive age)
Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Comparison of toric IOL rotation between both groups (mean ≠ SD) | 1 Year | Aim is to see if the lying down after the operation lowers the risk of toric IOL rotation compared to sitting down |
