IOL power calculation after keratorefractive surgery is an important applied aspect of cataract surgery. The probability refractive error especially high when calculating in patients with a history radial keratotomy. There no unified approach to the tactics and methodology for this category at moment. studies were conducted group 17 (26 eyes) RK. Haigis formula, which does not use keratometry p...

Purpose To compare the performance of OKULIX ray-tracing software with SRK-T and Hoffer Q formula in intraocular lens (IOL) power calculation in patients presenting with cataract. Methods In this prospective study, 104 eyes of 104 patients with cataract who underwent phacoemulsification and IOL implantation were recruited. Three IOL brands were used and for all eyes, IOL power calculation was...

By Thomas Olsen, MD, PhD The calculation of IOL power in an eye that has undergone corneal refractive surgery is not a straightforward task. However, if you understand why the calculation may go wrong, you will have a fair chance of getting a good result using modern technology. It is important to understand that the calculation errors of post-LASIK eyes are the sum of the traditional errors pl...

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 retros...

purpose: to describe the biometric changes and their effect on intraocular lens (iol) power calculation after trabeculectomy and to compare the accuracy of four formulas namely srk/ii, srk/t, holladay and hoffer q for iol power calculation in these patients. methods: thirty-four eyes of 31 glaucoma patients who were scheduled for primary trabeculectomy were enrolled. a non-contact biometry devi...

PURPOSE To compare the accuracy of four different intraocular lens (IOL) power calculation formulas for eyes with mean keratometry values greater than 46 diopters (D). METHODS Forty five eyes from 45 patients who were candidates for senile cataract surgery with mean keratometry values greater than 46 D were included. Calculation of the IOL power was performed by the Lenstar. The implanted IOL...

PURPOSE To describe the different formulas that try to overcome the problem of calculating the intraocular lens (IOL) power in patients that underwent corneal refractive surgery (CRS). METHODS A Pubmed literature search review of all published articles, on keyword associated with IOL power calculation and corneal refractive surgery, as well as the reference lists of retrieved articles, was pe...
