IOL calculations and IOL selection in small eyes
The three variables in IOL calculations are the power of the existing cornea, the axial length of the eye and the effective lens position.It is a challenge in any lens power calculation to predict the final resting position of the IOL based on preoperative measurements. In an eye with a long axial length, the effective lens position (ELP) is not as critical because a small movement of the IOL in the anterior-posterior dimension, coupled with the lower power IOL used in these axial myopes, only mildly alters the final refractive (Read more...)
