Abstract
Objective To assess the precision of Barrett Universal II, SRK-T, and Haigis formulas in high myopic eyes for the estimation of intraocular lens power, using optical biometry. Patients and methods This is an interventional prospective study that included 34 eyes with an axial length more than or equal to 26 mm, who underwent uneventful phacoemulsification. One month after the surgery, we recorded the postoperative refraction. Refractive prediction error (RPE), median absolute error (Med AE), and proportion of eyes with postoperative myopic and hyperopic outcomes were compared. Results The lowest mean RPE (−0.11±0.90 D), Med AE (0.15 D), and proportion of eyes with hyperopic outcomes (44.1%) were reported with the Barrett Universal II formula. They were all statistically lower than the results of SKR/T and Haigis formulas (mean RPE 0.16±0.99 and 0.31±0.98 D, respectively; Med AE 0.47 and 0.40 D, respectively; and percentage of hyperopic outcome 70.6 and 76.5%, respectively). Conclusion We concluded that the lowest mean RPE, median AE, and the lowest percentage of hyperopic outcome were reported with the Barrett Universal II formula.
