Abstract

Scleral Fixated Intraocular Lenses were implanted in 20 eyes of 14 patients divided into 2 groups on the basis of hyperopic (pupil mostly rendered aphakic) or myopic refractive error (milder subluxation with phakic part in visual axis) and actual post operative refraction were compared. In the preoperative myopic refractive error the difference was 1.100±2.157 D while it was 1.207±1.465 D in pre operative hyperopic refractive error group. Comparison of target refraction and actual post operative spherical equivalent between these groups was not statistically significant (p=0.384 and p=0.039 respectively).
