چکیده

AIM To evaluate optimal standard intraocular lens power for Nepalese eye camp cataract patients. METHOD A retrospective case series of 5109 preoperative cataract patients. RESULTS Average axial length of 23.08 (SD 1.26). Average dioptre intraocular lens power 21.37 (3.04). CONCLUSION An increase in the intraocular lens power used at Nepalese eye camps from +21.0 to 22.5 dioptres would improve overall visual outcome.

Intraocular lens power calculation following laser refractive surgery

Refractive outcomes following cataract surgery in patients that have previously undergone laser refractive surgery have traditionally been underwhelming. This is related to several key issues including the preoperative assessment (keratometry) and intraocular lens power calculations. Peer-reviewed literature is overwhelmed by the influx of methodology to manipulate the corneal or intraocular le...
