The Barrett universal II formula was used to calculate the IOL power. In consideration of future axial growth, the target IOL power was chosen according to the child’s age using a scale, suggesting under-powering by +6 D at 1 year of age and decreasing 1 D per year, excepting no correction was specified for children 7 years and older (

As authors may omit details in methods from publication, our AI will look for missing critical information across the 5 most similar protocols.
About PubCompare
Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.
We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.
However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
