EyeToric vs Angle Alpha Patwardhan

I have found toric IOLs invaluable for managing astigmatism for my cataract patients. The online calculators are great, but do require you to be in front of a computer to choose the lens and don’t easily allow you to try different wound locations or astigmatic combinations. EyeToric allows you to dynamically change the wound position to see the effect on lens power and placement. For anyone who has worked at a hospital where not all toric powers are routinely stocked, occasionally the lens you want is not available, or you have enlarged the main wound and need to compensate for greater astigmatism – EyeToric has this covered. It is possible to change the predicted lens power and axis placement and see the effects this has on postop astigmatism. If you get an unexpected postop result you are able to determine if this is due to unexpected lens positioning or inaccurate preop Ks – useful in planning further surgery. I think the application is quite intuitive, particularly if you have used the online calculator. Feedback is welcome.

Angle Alpha is a clinical planning tool for eye-care professionals performing toric IOL and cataract surgery. Photograph the patient's eye with the camera (or import an existing image), overlay a scaled protractor and reference grid, and read off the ophthalmic measurements you need for accurate toric lens alignment — right on your phone, with no extra hardware. Conceived and owned by Dr. Sourabh D. Patwardhan and developed by ScriptLanes. WHAT YOU CAN MEASURE • White-to-white (WTW) diameter as the scaling reference • Pupil diameter • Alpha and Kappa distances • X / Y offsets in millimetres • A draggable axis-of-placement / mark-rotation line for toric alignment HOW IT WORKS 1. Capture the eye with the camera or pick an image from your gallery. 2. Enter the white-to-white (WTW) value to calibrate the on-screen scale. 3. Align the overlay grid and read the live measurements. 4. Drag the placement-axis line to plan or verify toric marking. 5. Save the annotated result against a patient record for later review.
