Event or Problem Description
|
|
A physician reported that following an intraocular lens (iol) implantation procedure, the patient ended up with a massive refractive error (-7.50 diopter), despite the iol powers being very close on both sides and the biometry being comparable.Additionally, his pre-op refraction was also equal on both sides.The surgeon was doubtful and concerned whether the correct iol was in the box as the surgeon had never encountered such a big anisometropia in a patient with comparable biometrics on both sides and similar refractive error on both sides pre-op.The surgeon referred the patient to a refractive surgeon.Additional information has been received and stated the iol was not explanted and a refractive surgery (without charge) on the patient was performed and achieved good results.The patient was satisfied with the results.
