title: IOL power determination by retinoscope.
abstract: IOL power prediction was performed by streak retinoscopy on the operating table after taking the previous refractive status of the patient into consideration. In 180 eyes posterior chamber lenses were implanted after determining the power of the IOL by retinoscopy on the table and selecting a suitable lens. The method though not so accurate as A scan ultra sonography and use of the SRK formula and the Colebrander formula is a good substitute to these methods particularly for avoiding high post operative refractive errors.
