Accuracy of routine intraocular lens power calculation in a district general hospital.

چکیده
To assess the accuracy of routine preoperative biometry we reviewed all cases of extracapsular cataract extraction with posterior chamber implant performed at Queen Alexandra Hospital in 1985. Of 471 eyes included in the survey 67.9% were within 1.0 D of the expected refraction and 90.7% within 2.0 D. Factors influencing accuracy are discussed. The necessity of routine preoperative biometry is emphasised.

PURPOSE To investigate the accuracy of a new optical biometer for intraocular lens (IOL) power calculation in eyes undergoing cataract surgery. METHODS Consecutive eyes of patients undergoing cataract surgery with the same IOL model were enrolled in a prospective cohort study. Axial length (AL) and corneal power were measured with an optical biometer based on optical low-coherence interferome...
