Ratio of axial length to corneal radius in Japanese patients and accuracy of intraocular lens power calculation based on biometric data

American Journal of Ophthalmology Jun 11, 2020

Omoto MK, Torii H, Hayashi K, et al. - Researchers conducted this retrospective observational case series to assess the characteristics of the axial length-to-corneal radius (AL/CR) ratio in Japanese individuals with cataracts and to determine the accuracy of intraocular lens (IOL) power calculation formulas according to the AL/CR features and the axial length (AL). Patient population was a total of 1,135 patients (1,135 eyes with cataracts). Data reported that the mean AL/CR ratio was 3.15 ± 0.19. The AL/CR ratio clarified the total SE variation better than the single AL variation. Surgeons should listen to the choice of IOL power calculation formulas in eyes with high AL/CR ratios.
