Correlation of binocular refractive error and calculation of intraocular Lens power for the second eye

Abstract: Background: Reducing refractive error has always been a tricky problem. The aim of this study was to verify the correlation between binocular refractive error (RE) after sequential cataract surgery and explore an individualized calculation method of intraocular lens (IOL) for the second eye. Methods: This was a prospective study. One hundred eighty-eight affected eyes in 94 age-related cataract patients who underwent sequential cataract surgery in the Department of Ophthalmology, Tangdu Hospital, China, were r… Show more

“…Landers et al compared the inter-ocular relationship of the postoperative refractive outcome in cataract surgery and suggested that each eye should be considered independently in IOL power selection 14 . On the other hand, it has been shown that adjustment using the prediction error of the first eye in bilateral sequential cataract surgery improved the refractive outcome of the second eye, suggesting similar biometric characteristics between two eyes [15][16][17][18][19] .…”

“…In another animal study [38] , tissue may be less likely to contract under the influence of a small drop in intraocular pressure. The study of Yan Hong et al [39] showed that the normal range of IOP had no correlation with diopter and axial length, so the local application of IOP drugs to control the development of myopia may not be effective. Some studies have found [40] that reducing IOP can thick the choroid thickness, which may improve the blood circulation of the fundus, thus improving the fundus damage caused by high myopia.…”

“…For the calculation of IOL power in the second eye (left), we assumed that the left eye would produce the same refractive error as the right eye, so the target of 0.0 D was set which ended up with −1.5 D postoperatively. Zhang et al [ 16 ] reported that it may be more accurate to estimate the degree of error in the second eye as half the refractive error in the first eye. Consistent with that report, our patient had a myopia drift of 4.0 D in her right eye and 1.5 D in her left eye.…”
