Effect of Centration and Circularity of Manual Capsulorrhexis on Cataract Surgery Refractive Outcomes

Postoperative refraction at 1 year was not related to centration or circularity of the capsulorrhexis. However, decentration by more than 0.4 mm was associated with a 0.25-D change in SE and incomplete capsulorrhexis-optic overlap was associated with a 0.50-D change in spectacle cylinder from 1 month to 1 year.
