12 Patient or method selection error Combined procedure (keratoplasty, cataract extraction and IOL implantation)? Advanced keratoconus, high surface irregularity index Central corneal opacities. Miscalculation may result in low-power IOL and extreme postop hyperopia Pre op aim for myopia. If high plus scleral lens required postoperatively, they have greater lens mass and reduced optic diameter IOL exchange

13 Biometry error Total corneal power calculation Standard correction factor (applied to the anterior radius of corneal curvature) Corneal refractive index of Refractive effect of posterior corneal surface Visual axis crosses the steepest portion of the cornea Keratoconus cone apex (typically displaced downwards and temporally). Accurate K s impossible High anterior surface irregularity Low Sim K repeatability (tear film abnormalities) Deep ACD than in the normal eye Influence the position of the IOL relative to the central cornea. SRK-T based on data obtained from linear regression, without incorporating the value for the ACD.

14 Mild and moderate keratoconus predictability is relatively good (<55d). The use of measured K s with a target of low myopia results in a low mean BPE* In advanced keratoconus there can be an unacceptably large hyperopic error BPE. High K s of advanced keratoconus will result in lowpower or negative-power IOL Standard K value should be considered *biometry prediction error BPE
