The paper presents the results of development of the new method of the preoperation corneal division with the implantation of toric intraocular lens. The basis of the invention consists in the noncontact point defects of the corneal epithelium made with the aid of the YAG-laser with their subsequent staining with 3% aqueous solution of collargol. The effectiveness of the method proposed is studied in 22 patients (23 eyes) who were subjected to phacoemulsification or phacotrabeculotomy with the implantation of IOL AcrySof Toric, in whom the statistically reliable (p < 0,05) decrease of the value of general astigmatism is established after surgery.
