Abstract
PURPOSE To evaluate the refractive and postoperative outcomes of a high-power foldable intraocular lens (IOL) in nanophthalmic eyes. SETTING Six ophthalmic surgical centers in Canada. DESIGN Retrospective case series. METHODS Consecutive charts of nanophthalmic patients having cataract extraction and insertion of the CT Xtreme D IOL were reviewed. Demographic and clinical data were collected, including age, sex, axial length (AL), minimum keratometry (K) value and maximum K value, corneal white-to-white (WTW), anterior chamber depth, lens thickness (LT), and complications. The following preoperative and operative data were collected: uncorrected distant visual acuity (UDVA), corrected distant visual acuity (CDVA), sphere, cylinder, and spherical equivalence (SE). The primary outcome measure was change in SE. The secondary outcome measures were changes in UDVA and CDVA. RESULTS A total of 21 eyes from 13 patients with a mean follow-up time of 9.6 ± 8.5 months were studied. Mean preoperative data were: age (51.4 ± 15.2 years), AL (16.63 ± 0.68 mm), minimum K value (46.20 ± 2.26 D), maximum K value (47.55 ± 2.34 D), anterior chamber depth (2.60 ± 0.49 mm), WTW (11.08 ± 1.38 mm), LT (4.70 ± 0.97 mm), and IOL power implanted (+49.9 ± 3.3 diopters [D]). SE improved from +16.11 ± 3.26 D preoperatively to +2.00 ± 2.37 D postoperatively (P < .0001). UDVA improved from 1.47 ± 0.30 logMAR preoperatively to 0.74 ± 0.43 logMAR postoperatively (P = .016). CDVA did not change significantly. Five eyes (23.8%) had serious postoperative complications. Of these eyes, 2 had malignant glaucoma, 2 had vitreous hemorrhages, and 1 eye had a vitreous hemorrhage with retinal detachment resulting in visual acuity of no light perception. CONCLUSION Implanting foldable high-power IOLs in a series of nanophthalmic eyes yielded significant improvement in UDVA and SE. Cataract surgery in these eyes carries increased risk.

Carifi G, Aiello F, Zygoura V, Kopsachilis N, Maurino V. Accuracy of the refractive prediction determined by multiple currently available intraocular lens power calculation formulas in small eyes. Am J Ophthalmol 2015; 159:577-83. [PMID: 25524494 DOI: 10.1016/j.ajo.2014.11.036] [Citation(s) in RCA: 29] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/06/2014] [Revised: 10/29/2014] [Accepted: 11/01/2014] [Indexed: 12/27/2022]
Abstract
PURPOSE To observe the refractive outcomes of cataract surgery in small adult eyes, and to investigate the accuracy of different intraocular lens (IOL) power prediction formulas. DESIGN Retrospective interventional case series. METHODS We included consecutive small eyes undergoing uneventful phacoemulsification cataract surgery with a single highly powerful IOL (Acrysof SA60AT) implanted in the capsular bag (range of powers +35.0 to +40.0 diopters [D]), at the Cataract Centre for Moorfields Eye Hospital. Exclusion criteria were combined or previous intraocular surgical procedures, and any type of intraoperative complications. Main outcome measures were mean prediction errors with Hoffer Q, Holladay 1, Holladay 2, Haigis, SRK-T, and SRK-II IOL power prediction formulas and proportions of eyes achieving absolute errors within the dioptric ranges of 0.5, 1.0, and 2.0 D of target and emmetropia, respectively. The ANOVA test was used to compare the refractive results among various formulas. RESULTS Twenty-eight eyes were studied; the mean numerical error was 0.22 ± 1.22 D and the mean absolute error was 0.95 ± 0.78 D with the adopted Hoffer Q formula; 39%, 61%, and 89% of the eyes had a final refraction within 0.5 D, 1.0 D, and 2.0 D of target, respectively. None of the latest-generation formulas significantly outperformed the others (P = .245). CONCLUSIONS The Hoffer Q formula led to good or fair refractive outcomes in less than two thirds of the cases. With Holladay 1 and 2 and Haigis formulas, outcomes would have not been significantly different. The SRK formulas yielded less accurate predictions. Possible reasons are discussed.

Abstract
AIM To evaluate the clinical outcomes of phacoemulsification cataract surgery in microphthalmos. METHODS Retrospective consecutive case series of eyes with axial length <20.9 mm, and requiring a high intraocular lens (IOL) power (≥30 or ≥35 dioptres for anterior or posterior chamber fixation, respectively), with no history of previous ocular surgery, and undergoing planned phacoemulsification cataract surgery with IOL implantation at Moorfields Eye Hospital was investigated to observe the incidence of intraoperative and postoperative complications. RESULTS During a 5-year study period, 47 of 22,093 eyes were treated in two locations (0.21%). Thirty-nine eyes met the study inclusion criteria. No serious intraoperative adverse events were recorded. Severe postoperative complications (retinal detachment and chronic postoperative uveitis) occurred in two cases. The postoperative corrected distance visual acuity (CDVA) was logMAR 0.30 or better in 24 eyes (62%), and only three eyes obtained worse vision. The overall ocular comorbitidy rate was 53%; 10 microphthalmic eyes (26%) presented with associated congenital or hereditary pathology, and had worse visual outcomes (p<0.0001). CONCLUSIONS Microphthalmic eyes requiring high IOL power are rare, and their presence is often associated with other ocular congenital or acquired disorders. Overall, the clinical outcomes were satisfactory and the surgical procedure affected by a low complication rate.
