Introduction
Precise IOL power calculation is essential for optimal benefits.
IOL Power Calculation Errors can arise from
Keratometry – 1.0D = 0.9D error in IOL power
Axial length – 1mm = 2.5D error in IOL power
IOL Formula
![Page 3: IOL power calculation special situations](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022052312/58a232e11a28ab527c8b69a9/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
KeratometryUsed to measure the corneal curvature.
Done before axial length measurement.
Types of Keratometer
1. Manual Keratometer
2. Auto Keratometer, Keratometers incorporated in IOL Master
and Lenstar
3. Topography – Placido disc based or Elevation based
topography
![Page 4: IOL power calculation special situations](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022052312/58a232e11a28ab527c8b69a9/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Keratometry
Principle
1. Fixed object and variable image size
2. Fixed image and variable object size
Two types
1. Bausch and Lomb
2. Javel Schiotz
![Page 5: IOL power calculation special situations](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022052312/58a232e11a28ab527c8b69a9/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Manual Keratometer – Bausch and LombMeasures radius of curvature of anterior corneal surface and
converts into total corneal power (anterior + posterior) by
using standardized refractive index of 1.3375 instead of true
corneal refractive index 1.36.
Measures a larger zone away from the centre - 3.5mm zone
and calibrated to give central corneal power, Works well in
virgin regular corneas.
Limitation – In post RK and post keratorefractive corneas, the
central corneal power measurement is inaccurate.
![Page 6: IOL power calculation special situations](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022052312/58a232e11a28ab527c8b69a9/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Automated Keratometer
Principle- Focuses the reflected corneal image on to an
electronic photosensitive device, which instantly records
the size and computes the radius of curvature.
Zone of measurement- Central 3mm zone.
Slightly better than manual K in terms of the zone
measured.
![Page 7: IOL power calculation special situations](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022052312/58a232e11a28ab527c8b69a9/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Keratometry of Optical BiometerIOL MASTER –1. No of points tested – 6 points in hexagonal pattern2. Zone of cornea tested – Diameter of 2.3mm LENSTAR –1. No of points tested – 32 points in two circles (16 each)2. Zone of cornea tested – Inner circle diameter – 1.65mm Outer circle diameter – 2.3mm
BETTER IN TERMS OF MEASURING TRUE CENTRAL CORNEAL POWER
![Page 8: IOL power calculation special situations](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022052312/58a232e11a28ab527c8b69a9/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
TopographySim K – It is determined from the power of placido mires 7,8 and 9 of videokeratoscope for 128 equally spaced meridians within 3mm zone.EKR – EKR is determined by adding 0.7D to total corneal refractive power (TCRP) measured by Pentacam rotating Scheimpflug camera. This conversion factor is applicable after myopic refractive surgery because changes in TCRP are equal to changes in refraction in the 4mm zone.Flattest central K on topo – Standard keratometry tends to overestimate the corneal curvature and we expect a hyperopic shift post-RK. So flattest central K is used for IOL power calculation in post RK. Seo K, Young C et al. New equivalent keratometry reading calculation with a rotating Scheimpflug

Topography
Posterior corneal measurement in Oculyzer – Selecting toric
IOL based on anterior corneal measurement can lead to
overcorrection in eyes with WTR astigmatism and
undercorrection in eyes with ATR astigmatism.
Oculus Pentacam AXL – Utilise the anterior + posterior corneal
astigmatism and axial length on the same machine to calculate
toric IOL power.

Axial Length Measurement
1 mm error leads to 2.5D error in postoperative refraction
2 types
1. Optical
2. Ultrasound
![Page 11: IOL power calculation special situations](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022052312/58a232e11a28ab527c8b69a9/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
A-scan
PRINCIPLE- The ultrasound probe has a piezoelectric crystal
that electrically emits and receive high frequency sound
waves.
Measurement is from anterior corneal surface to internal
limiting membrane.
WAVES- One thin parallel sound beam is emitted from the
probe tip at a frequency of 10MHz, with an echo bouncing into
the probe tip as the sound beam strikes each interface.
![Page 12: IOL power calculation special situations](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022052312/58a232e11a28ab527c8b69a9/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
A-scan USE OF GAIN IN DIFFICULT SITUATIONS- Gain refers to
electronic amplification of the sound waves received by the
transducer. Increase in gain is required when height of echoes
achieved is inadequate as in dense cataracts. Decrease in gain
is required when artefacts are seen near the retinal echoes as
in silicone filled eyes, pseudophakic eyes.
IMMERSION ADVANTAGE- It is more accurate than contact
method as the corneal compression is avoided.
LIMITATIONS- Does not give accurate readings in silicone filled
eyes, posterior staphyloma.

Optical Biometer
PRINCIPLE OF IOL MASTER – Based on
‘Partial Coherence Interferometry (PCI)’. Diode laser (780nm)
measures echo delay and intensity of infrared light reflected
back from tissue interfaces– Cornea & RPE.
PRINCIPLE OF LENSTAR – Based on ‘Low coherence
optical reflectometry (LCOR)’. Superluminescent
diode laser of 820nm is used.
![Page 14: IOL power calculation special situations](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022052312/58a232e11a28ab527c8b69a9/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Optical Biometer
PRINCIPLE OF IOL MASTER 700 – Based on swept source OCT
technology. It provides an image-based measurement,
allowing to view the complete longitudinal section of eyeball.

![Page 15: IOL power calculation special situations](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022052312/58a232e11a28ab527c8b69a9/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Optical BiometerADVANTAGES OF LENSTAR OVER IOL MASTER V5 –
- Lenstar measures ACD using optical biometry as compared to
IOLMaster which measures ACD using slit imagery.
- Measures ACD from posterior surface of cornea which is
important in short anterior chambers and thicker corneas.
- Takes two sets of readings so covers more central area.
- Pachymetry, Pupillometry, Retinal thickness.
- Lens thickness is measured which is one of the factors in latest
- formulas like Holladay II.Hill W, Angeles R, Otani T. Evaluation of a new IOLMaster algorithm to measure axial length. J Cataract Refract Surg 2008;34:6:920-4.
![Page 16: IOL power calculation special situations](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022052312/58a232e11a28ab527c8b69a9/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Optical Biometer
ADVANTAGES OF IOL MASTER 700 OVER LENSTAR-
- In PSC cataracts, opacity are located nearer to the nodal point
of the lens, so more light rays are affected and thus AL
measurement becomes difficult with LENSTAR. IOL MASTER
700 overcomes this problem.
- Unusual eye geometries like tilt or decentration of lens can be
detected.
![Page 17: IOL power calculation special situations](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022052312/58a232e11a28ab527c8b69a9/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
IOL Formulae
3RD and 4th generation formulae are superior to earlier formulae.
These are a merger of linear regression methods with theoretical
eye models.
They predict better ELP.
Haigis uses multiple A-constant.
Holladay uses multiple parameters including lens thickness
measured by LENSTAR.
![Page 18: IOL power calculation special situations](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022052312/58a232e11a28ab527c8b69a9/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)

Aphakic eyes
![Page 22: IOL power calculation special situations](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022052312/58a232e11a28ab527c8b69a9/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Aphakic eyes
Two lens spikes are replaced by a single spike - Anterior
vitreous face and Posterior lens capsule.
Immersion technique is the method of choice.
In present Biometers, options are available for aphakic mode
where in the calculation compensate for the change in speed
of the sound waves in cataract lens or aqueous or vitreous.
In ACIOL or Scleral fixated IOL, the appropriate A constant is
used.
![Page 23: IOL power calculation special situations](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022052312/58a232e11a28ab527c8b69a9/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Keratoconus eyes
![Page 24: IOL power calculation special situations](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022052312/58a232e11a28ab527c8b69a9/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Keratoconus eyes
As cornea with keratoconus is steep, using K reading of such eyes
will yield an overestimated reading due to ELP calculation error.
Formulas which consider only axial length and not Keratometry to
calculate ELP gives better prediction of true IOL power.
K reading has less of this effect in the Hoffer Q formula.
Also, overestimation is not a factor with the Haigis formula as it
does not use the K reading in estimating the lens power.
![Page 25: IOL power calculation special situations](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022052312/58a232e11a28ab527c8b69a9/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Eyes with silicone oil
![Page 26: IOL power calculation special situations](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022052312/58a232e11a28ab527c8b69a9/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Eyes with silicone filled vitreous/vitrectomized eyesThe refractive index of the oil is much less than that of the
vitreous.
Usage of a standard sound velocity can give an error of upto 8
mm.
Difficulty of measuring the AL can be overcome by increasing
the ‘system gain’.
![Page 27: IOL power calculation special situations](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022052312/58a232e11a28ab527c8b69a9/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Eyes with silicone filled vitreous/vitrectomized eyesError in AL measurement occurs as ultrasound travels slower in
silicon oil compared to vitreous and thus taking a longer time to
reach the probe which is interpretated as longer wavelength.
Usually a factor of (0.72) gives a rough estimate of the power.
TAL = 1133/1550 × AAL.
As silicone oil alters the optics of the eye due to its refractive index,
further adjustments in IOL power are required. However it is less
affected in optical biometer
Usually, IOL required is 2 – 3 D stronger than indicated by standard
power calculation.
![Page 28: IOL power calculation special situations](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022052312/58a232e11a28ab527c8b69a9/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
High myopic eyes
![Page 29: IOL power calculation special situations](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022052312/58a232e11a28ab527c8b69a9/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Eyes with high myopiaAccurate axial measurement is critical for IOL power
calculation
Paraxial measurement in ultrasonic measurement due to posterior staphyloma is likely to give a refractive surprise
It is partly overcome by optical biometer using a fixation target
Most of it is taken care in IOL master 700 by directly visualising fovea on the OCT image during measurement
![Page 30: IOL power calculation special situations](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022052312/58a232e11a28ab527c8b69a9/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Eyes with high myopia
IOL formula needs to be chosen accordingly
Minus IOL powers have to be chosen carefully by reducing amount of minus power
The surgeon should aim for a -0.50 D to -1.00 D postoperative refraction as most elderly will prefer being near-sighted
![Page 31: IOL power calculation special situations](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022052312/58a232e11a28ab527c8b69a9/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Pediatric eyes
![Page 32: IOL power calculation special situations](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022052312/58a232e11a28ab527c8b69a9/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Pediatric biometryAs myopia increases rapidly in pediatric age group, goal should
be undercorrection.
Undercorrection of 60-75% is recommended depending upon
the child’s age.
Younger the age, more is the undercorrection.
![Page 33: IOL power calculation special situations](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022052312/58a232e11a28ab527c8b69a9/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Pediatric biometrySimple rule of thumb- Target refraction = 7 – age in years
A greater undercorrection can lead to anisometropia and
difficulty in amblyopia correction. At times managing
amblyopia is more difficult than future IOL exchange.
Therefore undercorrection has to be done with care especially
in unilateral cases.
![Page 34: IOL power calculation special situations](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022052312/58a232e11a28ab527c8b69a9/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Piggyback IOL
![Page 35: IOL power calculation special situations](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022052312/58a232e11a28ab527c8b69a9/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Primary piggybackHaigis or Hoffer Q
Ideally 1 acrylic and 1 silicon IOL to avoid interlenticular opacification
Usually single piece in the bag and 3 piece in the sulcus
Divide the power between the IOL and reduce 1 D for sulcus placed IOL
![Page 36: IOL power calculation special situations](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022052312/58a232e11a28ab527c8b69a9/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Secondary piggyback IOL for pseudophakia
Patients with refractive error following the primary IOL
implantation.
Calculated based on refractive error.
Holladay’s refractive formula.
No knowledge of primary implant or the AL is required.
![Page 37: IOL power calculation special situations](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022052312/58a232e11a28ab527c8b69a9/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
Secondary piggyback IOL for pseudophakiaThe IOL power can also be calculated by one of these formulae:
Myopic correction: P = 1.0 × Error
Hypermetropic correction: P = 1.5 × Error
Rayner sulcoflex IOL power is calculated by giving the residual
refraction while ordering.

Keratometric error in RKRadial keratotomy (RK) flattens both the
anterior and posterior corneal surfaces, but only in a small
central optical zone.
The effective optical zone diameter can be significantly smaller
than the measurement zone of standard keratometry.
Therefore standard keratometry tends to overestimate the true
corneal power. Furthermore, there can be central flattening after
cataract surgery due to corneal edema. Most of the flattening
effect resolves over several months.
![Page 41: IOL power calculation special situations](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022052312/58a232e11a28ab527c8b69a9/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
Sources of error in post refractive cases (LASIK/PRK)Radius measurement error/ Keratometer error
Keratometry index error (Altered Gullstrand ratio)
Formula Algorithm error (ELP)
These 3 errors cause hyperopic error in myopic LASIK and
myopic error in hyperopic LASIK.

Choice of IOLIOL with negative spherical aberration like Technis or Acrysof
IQ would correct spherical aberration induced by myopic LASIK.
Refractive multifocal IOLs further reduce contrast sensitivity and so not recommended.
Diffractive multifocal IOL is not preferred as diffractive ring adds to already multifocal cornea and so not recommended.
Following RK, the overall lack of precision of IOL power calculations, a diurnal fluctuation in refractive power and increase in spherical aberration precludes use of refractive and diffractive multifocal IOL.
![Page 47: IOL power calculation special situations](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022052312/58a232e11a28ab527c8b69a9/html5/thumbnails/47.jpg)
Rule of 2s
Inspite of our best efforts, if the final refractive objective
remains elusive, plans for an IOL exchange, or a secondary
piggyback IOL, should not be made until at least 2 months
have passed and two refractions are stable at two consecutive
visits.

Our study Methods:IOL Power was calculated by 3 methods:
IOL Master: K used were the one derived from IOL masterTopography: K values used were the flattest K on corneal
topographyESCRS calculator: Average value of IOL power to be
implantedResults:
IOL power calculation using Topo-K gave a significantly higher proportion of patients in whom the difference between predicted and actual SE was more than 0.75, compared with ESCRS method. [p=0.04]

Our study Conclusion:
No single reliable method for accurate calculation of IOL
power in post RK patients.

fine tuning based on surgeon’s experience helps in achieving
near accurate post op refraction.
