This course aims to provide pragmatic and comprehensive information on surgical correction of astigmatism in cataract surgery. The new format will retain essential theoretical information, and provide more documented clinical-cases to evolve towards intermediate/advanced level. Debatable indications, unexpected refractive outcomes, complications and secondary corrections in toric surgery will be interactively presented and discussed.
