Table 1

Difference vectors in diopters (D) are shown for preoperative and aimed corneal astigmatism assessed with keratometry.

Difference vector in D	4-month group	1-year group
Preoperative	1.28 D (SD: 0.77; range 0.16 to 4.50)	1.54 (SD: 1.13; range: 0.27 to 5.16)
Target astigmatism	0.94 D (SD: 0.52; range: 0.11 to 2.18)	1.10 (SD: 0.61; range: 0.08 to 2.75)
