| Abstract;Purpose: Conventional methods (such as the SRK-II formula) do not accurately calculate the power of the intraocular lens (IOL) after refractive surgery. Therefore, we compared a new formula including a ray tracing method to the conventional method for foldable IOL lens implantation. Method: Foldable IOLs (MA 60 BM) were implanted in 26 patients (32 eyes) using the phakoemulsification technique. The power of the IOL was measured preoperatively using the SRK-II formula in all cases. From the results of postoperative refractive errors of these cases, the power of IOL calculated by the ray tracing method was compared to the SRK-II formula. Cataract patients first treated with photorefractive keratectomy (PRK) received IOL implants using our ray tracing method and their postoperative refraction was measured. Results: The average postoperative refractive error was 1.32 D in SRK-II formula, 0.95 D in the ray tracing method with Ray 1 used and 0.89 D with Ray 2 used. Postoperative refraction of both eyes first treated with PRK was -1.00 D. Conclusion: The average postoperative refractive error was reduced in the ray tracing method using Olsen's predicted ACD (Ray 2) compared to SRK-II formula. This new tracing method appears to be useful for determination of IOL power and it may be applied for IOL calculation for cataract surgery after refractive surgery. (author abst.) |
