Ultrasound measurement of ocular dimension is the chosen method for assessing axial length when determining dioptric power for intraocular lens. From the current results of 30 cases studied, the mean axial length ranges from 22 to 23 mm. Despite the limitation of the accuracy of the ultrasonic measurements with the 7.5 mHz transducer, the power of intraocular lens can. be determined satisfactor...

PURPOSE To evaluate the visual and refractive outcomes, lens power calculation accuracy, and safety of negative power intraocular lenses (IOLs) implanted in highly myopic eyes at the time of cataract surgery. DESIGN Interventional case series. METHODS Sixteen consecutive highly myopic eyes implanted with IOLs from -1 D to -6 D were identified. IOL power; preoperative and postoperative best-...

AIM To evaluate the prediction error in intraocular lens (IOL) power calculation for a rotationally asymmetric refractive multifocal IOL and the impact on this error of the optimization of the keratometric estimation of the corneal power and the prediction of the effective lens position (ELP). METHODS Retrospective study including a total of 25 eyes of 13 patients (age, 50 to 83y) with previo...

PURPOSE To determine the accuracy of Pentacam Scheimpflug system Holladay equivalent keratometry (K) readings (EKRs) in calculating intraocular lens (IOL) power after corneal refractive surgery, including laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK), photorefractive keratectomy (PRK), and radial keratotomy (RK). SETTING Jules Stein Eye Institute, David Geffen School of Medicine at University of Calif...

purpose: to evaluate visual function in patients with different types of light-filtering intraocular lenses (iols) methods: in this prospective comparative clinical study cataract patients with different types of iols in khatam-al-anbia eye hospital, mashhad were enrolled and followed for three months postoperatively. corrected distance visual acuity (cdva), color discrimination under photopic ...

This retrospective study evaluates visual (functional) and refractive outcome of correcting hyperopia (i.e. 2.5 D or more) by means of a cataract procedure and simultaneously the pre-existing clinical significant astigmatism (1.5 D or more with the rule; 1 D or more against the rule), if present, by means of an arcuate keratotomy. Nine eyes undergoing clear lens extractions with intraocular len...
