Intraoperative biometry for intraocular lens (IOL) power calculation at silicone oil removal.

چکیده
PURPOSE Cataract development is common following retinal detachment surgery that necessitates silicone oil injection. Intraocular lens (IOL) power calculation in the presence of silicone oil is challenging for many reasons. The authors evaluated the accuracy of intraoperative biometry during cataract surgery in silicone-filled eyes. METHODS Twelve cases of cataract in eyes filled with silicone oil after retinal detachment surgery were included. Preoperatively, keratometric readings were documented. Intraoperative axial length was measured following removal of silicone oil using a sterile probe of the Nidek Echoscan US800 unit. IOL power calculation was computed using the SRK/T formula. This was followed by phacoemulsification and foldable lens implantation. Postoperative refraction allowed evaluation of the accuracy of intraoperative biometry. The predictability of three different formulas was also compared (Holladay, SRK/T, and SRK II). RESULTS Seven men and five women with a mean age of 50.2 years were included in the study. The mean postoperative spherical equivalent using the described technique was 6.77 +/- 0.43 diopters. SRK/T and Holladay formula had the best predictability for high axial length eyes, whereas the three studied formulas showed no significant differences in predictability in eyes with normal axial length. CONCLUSIONS Intraoperative biometry proved to have good predictability for the absolute postoperative refractive error in cataract surgery for eyes at the time of silicone oil removal. This predictability was accurate independent of axial length.

متن کاملLimitations of Intraoperative Aphakic Refraction Technique for Intraocular Lens Power Calculation
Intraocular lens (IOL) power calculations are known to be difficult in eyes that have had corneal refractive surgery and several methods have been proposed to estimate IOL power. Among the methods not requiring preoperative data, the apahakic refraction technique has been successfully used to calculate IOL power in post-refractive cases and other conditions that cause unreliability in standard ...
