Intraocular lens power calculation for planned ametropia: a clinical study.

نویسنده

  • J S Hillman
چکیده

A prospective series of 25 eyes received an intraocular lens (IOL) of power calculated for planned ametropia, by means of the formulae of R. D. Binkhorst, from data of axial length, corneal curvature, and postoperative anterior chamber depth. All the postoperative refractions were within the +/- 2 D range from the predicted refraction, confirming the clinical value of such calculation. A retrospective study of 100 eyes which had received a +19 D power Binkhorst IOL showed a wide range of change in refraction extending up to the +/- 6 D range, indicating that a 'standard' power IOL cannot be relied upon to reproduce the preoperative refraction. Calculation of IOL power from biometric data is essential when controlled postoperative ametropia is required.

Background and Objective: Proper method and machine for corneal evaluation is an important factor in many anterior segment interventions. This study was performed to compare the mean keratometry (K) readings obtained with an IOL Master and Pentacam for intraocular lens power calculation in normal subjects with no history of refractive surgery.

Orbscan II-assisted intraocular lens power calculation for cataract surgery following myopic laser in situ keratomileusis (an American Ophthalmological Society thesis).

PURPOSE This study tests the hypothesis that the keratometric value derived from Orbscan II mean power maps, when used in an intraocular lens (IOL) calculation formula, at a specific measurement zone, will accurately determine the power of an IOL for planned cataract surgery in patients who have undergone prior myopic laser-assisted in situ keratomileusis (LASIK). METHODS This is a two-part s...

Surgical options for correction of refractive error following cataract surgery

Refractive errors are frequently found following cataract surgery and refractive lens exchange. Accurate biometric analysis, selection and calculation of the adequate intraocular lens (IOL) and modern techniques for cataract surgery all contribute to achieving the goal of cataract surgery as a refractive procedure with no refractive error. However, in spite of all these advances, residual refra...
