ABSTRACT
Purpose: To compare the refractive results after cataract surgery in myopic patients with intra ocular lens implants calculated with SRKT and SRKII formulas.
Methods: We examined the charts of patients with an axial length greater than 25 mm, after phacoemulsification surgery. We selected 3 groups, 30 patients in each, divided by axial length: group 1: 25 to 27.9 mm, group 2: 28 to 29.9 mm, group 3: greater than 30 mm. We calculated the number of patients with expected postoperative refractions (+1 to –1) and the non expected (out of range) in the three groups. For our calculations we used the following formula: R = Re - [(suggested IOL – empiric ideal IOL) x 0.50]. Statistical analysis: chi-square.
Results: Group 1: X² = 2.45, p = 0.1172. Group 2: X² = 2.50, p = 0.1138. Group 3: X² = 4.29, p = 0.0384. The range of error was about –1 to –3 diopters in each group.
Conclusions: There is no significant difference in patients with axial length of 25 to 29.9 mm. There is a significant difference in patients with axial length greater than 30 mm.
