Purpose: To evaluate the intraocular power calculation formula for children and the change of the refraction.
Subject And Methods: We reviewed the medical records of 66 pediatric cases with intraocular lens (IOL) implantation after cataract extraction and results of questionnaire of the Japanese Association of Pediatric Ophthalmology and Japanese Society of Cataract and Refractive Surgery. We employed four IOL power calculation formulae(SRK, SRK II, SRK/T, Holladay) to evaluate the accuracy of preoperative prediction of refraction.
