ABSTRACT: The aim of the study was to estimate the post-operative refraction with IOL implanted by using A-scan biometry and SRK II formula, to determine the difference between estimated and actual post-operative refractive error,to determine the range of deviation of post-operative refractive error from expected refraction encountered by using this method. Methods: The study was carried out in 100 patients admitted in HSK hospital, Bagalkot undergoing extracapsular cataract extraction with posterior chamber intraocular lens implantation. IOL power was calculated using SRK II formula. The aim was to make the patient slightly myopic. The expected post-operative refraction was subtracted from the spherical correction for distance. This gives deviation of post-operative refraction from expected value. The results thus obtained were tabulated in the proforma and master table and analysed. Results: Using A scan biometry and SRK II formula the accuracy of IOL prediction was as follows-76 percent patients had errors within ±1D, Ninety five within± 2D and ninety eight within ±3D. Conclusion: A Scan biometry with SRK II formula is recommended as an accurate method of IOL power calculation for desired postoperative refraction.
KEYWORDS: a-scan biometry; intraocular lens power calculation; SRK II formula.
