Astigmatic management is an important step to achieve the best visual quality after refractive cataract surgery. Nowadays, along with progress in cataract surgery, the femtosecond laser can produce the arcuate incisions high precisely that help the astigmatic correction. In Vietnam, it has not yet any study about this issue, so we perform this study.
