title: Reliability of lens implant power formulas in hyperopes and myopes.
abstract: Calculations were made comparing a variety of formulas in patients who required unusually high and low power intraocular lenses. Of the formulas tested, the author found the Colenbrander formula to be more accurate for myopic patients and the SRK formula to be more accurate for hyperopic patients.
