Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

To study the effective lens position concept in second eye refinement (SER) cataract surgery, by relating inter-ocular symmetry of pseudophakic anterior chamber depth (pACD) measured in Pentacam and SER refractive outcomes.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
  • Procedure: 50% Partial adjustment
  • Procedure: No adjustment
  • Procedure: Full adjustment

Detailed Description

A retrospective chart review was conducted, including demographics (age and gender) and several parameters for both the first and second eyes, including the intra-ocular lens power calculation using the HofferQ, SRK/T and Holladay 1 formulas. Pentacam HR was used for pseudophakic anterior chamber depth measurement, and manual measurement was performed by a single investigator tracing a line between the anterior surface of the intra-ocular lens and the central corneal epithelium apex. Second eye refinement in the intra-ocular lens power selection for the second eye was performed using a theoretical 50% partial adjustment of the prediction error of the first eye. To relate refractive outcomes to pACD values, the investigators performed subgroup analysis based in consecutive 50µm increments in inter-ocular asymmetry of pACD (50-600).

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
50% Partial adjustment

The prediction error for the first (PE1) and second (PE2) eyes was calculated as the difference between the observed post-operative refraction in spherical equivalent and the predicted post-operative refraction by the IOL Master for the implanted intra-ocular lens. This was obtained for the 3 formulae. Second eye refinement in the intra-ocular lens power selection for the second eye was performed using a theoretical 50% partial adjustment of the PE1. To relate refractive outcomes to pACD values, we performed subgroup analysis based in consecutive 50µm increments in inter-ocular asymmetry of pACD (50-600).

Procedure: 50% Partial adjustment
Second eye refinement in the IOL power selection for the second eye using a theoretical 50% partial adjustment of the PE1.

No adjustment

The prediction error for the first (PE1) and second (PE2) eyes was calculated as the difference between the observed post-operative refraction in spherical equivalent and the predicted post-operative refraction by the IOL Master for the implanted intra-ocular lens. This was obtained for the 3 formulae. The intra-ocular lens power selection for the second eye was performed irrespective of the first eye prediction error. To relate refractive outcomes to pACD values, we performed subgroup analysis based in consecutive 50µm increments in inter-ocular asymmetry of pACD (50-600).

Procedure: No adjustment
IOL power selection for the second eye irrespective of first eye prediction error

Full adjustment

The prediction error for the first (PE1) and second (PE2) eyes was calculated as the difference between the observed post-operative refraction in spherical equivalent and the predicted post-operative refraction by the IOL Master for the implanted intra-ocular lens. This was obtained for the 3 formulae. Second eye refinement in the intra-ocular lens power selection for the second eye was performed using a theoretical 100% partial adjustment of the PE1. To relate refractive outcomes to pACD values, we performed subgroup analysis based in consecutive 50µm increments in inter-ocular asymmetry of pACD (50-600).

Procedure: Full adjustment
Second eye refinement in the IOL power selection for the second eye using a theoretical 100% partial adjustment of the PE1.
