He Eye Hospital
Brief Summary

The Web-based Barret True K formula with no history formula has been proven to be a good choice for cataract patients after RK in several studies. The American society of cataract and refractive surgeons provides several IOL formulas for cataract patients who have undergone previous corneal refractive surgery. In cases where only IOL-Master data are available, Holladay 1 (Double-K) \[Holladay 1 (D-K)\] can be used for IOL power calculation in cataract patients with a history of RK. The traditional Haigis formula has also been shown to be effective for cataract patients after RK. To compare the accuracy of four intraocular lens (IOL) power calculation formulas in cataract patients after RK. They are Barrett True-K formula, Holladay 1(D-K) formula, Haigis formula, and MM formula.

Detailed Description

Myopia is the most common cause of distance vision impairment. The prevalence of myopia has increased dramatically in the past few decades, especially in China. Corneal refractive surgery is an effective method to correct adult myopia. Radial keratotomy (RK) is one of the corneal refractive surgeries developed in the 1980s. Thirty years ago, many myopic patients underwent RK. As patients age, more and more patients have cataracts requiring cataract extraction and intraocular lens (IOL) implantation. The selection of appropriate and accurate IOL is an important factor to improve patient satisfaction. Recent studies have compared the accuracy of the newly developed IOL formula in patients with previous RK cataract. However, as a country with myopia and myopia surgery, there is no similar study in China. In addition, most patients with cataract after RK had lost ocular data before RK surgery. For RK patients without previous ocular data, how to accurately calculate the IOL power is still a clinical challenge.
