| Abstract | PURPOSE: To derive regression-based formulas and identify essential dependent variables to estimate refractive corneal power after myopic laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK). SETTING: University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center at Dallas, Dallas, Texas, USA. METHODS: A retrospective data review of 30 eyes (23 patients) having myopic LASIK followed by phacoemulsification and posterior chamber intraocular lens (IOL) implantation in the same eye gathered the following: pre-LASIK and post-LASIK refractions and topographies, axial length, IOL type and power, and spherical equivalent (SE) refraction 3 months after phacoemulsification. Using the double-K Holladay 1 formula, the refractive corneal power in each eye was back-calculated. Regression formulas were derived and compared with current corneal power estimation methods. RESULTS: The multiple regression formula based on the average corneal power in the central 3.0 mm area (ACCP3 mm) and the change (Delta) in SE (SEpostLASIK-SEpreLASIK) was simplified to ACCPadj=ACCP3mm-0.16DeltaSE, with the highest Pearson correlation coefficient (r=0.989) and lowest absolute corneal power estimation error (0.30 diopter [D]+/-0.30 (SD)). Regression based on ACCP3 mm alone yielded 0.980 and 0.49+/-0.40 D, respectively. Using SimK with DeltaSE resulted in a lower r value (0.971) and larger absolute corneal power estimation error (0.65+/-0.44 D) (P=.0014). The clinical history methods yielded 0.909 and 1.09+/-0.868 D, respectively (P=.0005). CONCLUSION: The regression formula based on ACCP3mm and DeltaSE was very accurate in predicting refractive corneal power after myopic LASIK followed by formulas based on ACCP3mm alone and SimK and DeltaSE, all of which consolidate the validity of similar previously suggested methods, including EffRPadjusted. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
