| Abstract | PURPOSE: To identify and quantify sources of error in the refractive outcome of cataract surgery. SETTING: AMO Groningen BV, Groningen, The Netherlands. METHODS: Means and standard deviations (SDs) of parameters that influence refractive outcomes were taken or derived from the published literature to the extent available. To evaluate their influence on refraction, thick-lens ray tracing that allowed for asphericity was used. The numerical partial derivative of each parameter with respect to spectacle refraction was calculated. The product of the partial derivative and the SD for a parameter equates to its SD, expressed as spectacle diopters, which squared is the variance. The error contribution of a parameter is its variance relative to the sum of the variances of all parameters. RESULTS: Preoperative estimation of postoperative intraocular lens (IOL) position, postoperative refraction determination, and preoperative axial length (AL) measurement were the largest contributors of error (35%, 27%, and 17%, respectively), with a mean absolute error (MAE) of 0.6 diopter (D) for an eye of average dimensions. Pupil size variation in the population accounted for 8% of the error, and variability in IOL power, 1%. CONCLUSIONS: Improvement in refractive outcome requires better methods for predicting the postoperative IOL position. Measuring AL by partial coherence interferometry may be of benefit. Autorefraction increases precision in outcome measurement. Reducing these 3 major error sources with means available today reduces the MAE to 0.4 D. Using IOLs that compensate for the spherical aberration of the cornea would eliminate the influence of pupil size. Further improvement would require measuring the asphericity of the anterior surface and radius of the posterior surface of the cornea. |

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.
