To study the application of intraoperative retinoscopy for intraocular lens (IOL) power calculation in combined cataract extraction and silicone oil removal.This study comprised patients with silicone oil–filled eyes and visually significant cataract who had combined cataract extraction by phacoemulsification and silicone oil removal by a standard method through the pars plana route. Retinoscopy was performed with a streak retinoscope, standard vertex distance of 13.0 mm, and distance of 50.0 cm. All eyes had in-the-bag implantation of a foldable IOL with an A-constant of 118.4. The IOL power was calculated using the Ianchulev formula as follows: R × 2.01449. Postoperative refraction was performed at 3 months, and the spherical equivalent was calculatedConclusion ;Intraoperative retinoscopy for IOL power calculation in combined cataract extraction and silicone oil removal gave satisfactory refractive outcomes, although further studies with more patients are required to confirm its usefulness and determine whether there are disadvantages.
