ABSTRACT
PURPOSE:
To determine whether cyclotorsion occurs when a patient moves from the seating to supine position fixating with one eye.METHODS:
The axis of astigmatism was measured with the handheld automated refractometer (Retinomax K-plus, Nikon, Japan) in 33 eyes having more than -1.0D cylinder in seated and supine positions under monocular fixation.RESULTS:
There was a cyclotorsional deviation in 30 eyes (90.90%). Excyclotorsion was shown in 22 eyes (66.67%) and incyclotorsion in 8 (24.24%). Seventeen eyes (51.50%) had a torsional deviation less than 4 degrees, 5 eyes (15.15%) from 5 to 6 degrees, 7 eyes (21.21%) from 7 to 14 degrees and one eye greater than 15 degrees.CONCLUSIONS:
Positionally induced cyclotorsion occurs under fixation with one eye simulating refractive surgery. Surgeons should therefore make an effort to align the wavefront measurement to the ablation onto the cornea.
