The mean deviation between the target and actual TIOL axis was 2.10°±1.65°. The axial deviation was 0.70°±0.80° from postoperative day 1 to week 1, and 0.25°±0.44° from week 1 to month 1. The mean postoperative horizontal and vertical IOL tilt angles were 4.38°±2.47° and 4.36°±1.95°, and the mean Kappa angle and Alpha angle were (0.41±0.33) mm and (0.35±0.24) mm, respectively. The other postoperative complications were mild and controllable. <b>Conclusions:</b> The scleral suture fixation of single-focus or multifocal TIOLs can significantly reduce astigmatism and improve visual acuity, with favorable positional and axial stability during the follow-up period.</p>","PeriodicalId":39688,"journal":{"name":"中华眼科杂志","volume":"62 10","pages":"816-823"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2026-10-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"149148843","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
