Abstract
An apparatus for determining the angular error in the placement of fiducial marks on a toric intraocular lens with respect to the true location of a meridional axis of the intraocular lens, the fiducial marks defining an estimate of the angular orientation of the meridional axis of the intraocular is disclosed. The apparatus includes a rotatable intraocular lens holder coupled to drive assembly and an actuator which are mounted into an optical measurement cell receptacle of a wavefront measuring instrument or an angular error measuring instrument. A method for determining the angular error in the placement of fiducial marks on a toric intraocular lens with respect to the true location of a meridional axis of the intraocular lens is also disclosed.
