Abstract | PURPOSE: METHODS: RESULTS: Using the CRCF, the refractive outcomes ranged between -3.25 and +1.00 diopters (D) (mean -0.41+/-0.75 D), with 37 (60%) eyes within +/-0.50 D and 53 (85%) eyes within +/-1.00 D of the intended refraction. Using the raw data, without the correcting factor, the refractive outcomes would have ranged between -2.00 and +5.00 D (mean +2.17+/-1.45 D) with 7 (11%) eyes within +/-0.50 D and 15 (24%) eyes within +/- 1.00 D of the intended refraction. CONCLUSIONS: Pending further validation through a larger prospective evaluation, the CRCF combined with the SRK/T formula is recommended in eyes with an axial length up to 30 mm and the average IOL power calculated with the SRK/T and SRK II formulas when the axial length is >30 mm.
