Table 3
Best corrected visual acuity change and vector corrected change in astigmatism after suture removal. There was no significant difference in the vector corrected change in astigmatism between patients where visual acuity decreased and did not decrease (remained same or improved) following suture removal
| Visual acuity |
Refraction Mean (SD) |
Keratometry Mean (SD) |
Topography Mean (SD) |
| Decreased (n=6) | 4.61 (2.83) | 4.22 (1.81) | 3.08 (1.42) |
| Not decreased (n=31) | 5.05 (3.49) | 4.73 (3.04) | 4.11 (2.63) |
| Statistical significance | NS | NS | NS |

NS = not significant.
