Papers written about phoria adaptation often discuss the modification of eye alignment as evidence for mechanisms that compensate for changes in the oculomotor system due to development, disease and injury. While clinicians often encounter patients with diplopia or other signs of ocular misalignment, most people, in fact, have nearly perfect eye alignment even when viewing far targets with one eye occluded. Evidence that good eye alignment is the result of adaptive mechanisms can be seen with the binocular misalignment that results from the monocular patching of one eye in normal subjects for extended periods of time. We have tested extensively the ability of subjects to adapt the alignment of their eyes in various viewing conditions that present binocular disparities in the context of different version, vergence and head postures. Our conclusion from these studies is that one of the primary functions of phoria adaptive mechanisms is to manage the parsing of extraocular muscle forces during everyday viewing situations. The concept of Hering’s law of equal innervation is an oversimplification of a very complex process in which the relative participation of the twelve extraocular muscles needs to vary with the distance and eccentricity of the object of interest as well as the pitch and roll angles of the head. We note also that the problem of maintaining good coordination of the eyes is exacerbated with dynamic eye and head movements. I will review our work on the adaptation of vertical phoria and cyclophoria in relation to orbital eye position and head posture.

PURPOSE: To investigate the accuracy of several different methods for intraocular lens power calculation after laser in situ keratomileusis. SUBJECTS AND METHODS: Axial length, corneal radius and anterior chamber depth of 11 eyes in 9 cases of cataract surgery after myopic or myopic astigmatic laser in situ keratomileusis were measured by IOL MasterTM (Carl Zeiss Meditec) for Haigis-L formula. For Double-K method by Aramberri and his group, Holladay II formula and No-history method by Shammas and his group, corneal radius of these 11 eyes were measured by ARK-700A (NIDEK) and anterior chamber depth were measured by AL-2000 (TOMEY). To compare the error between predicted refraction and postoperative refraction which was obtained from the implanted intraocular lens power required parameters were applied to each formula. The mean age when the cataract surgery was performed: 52.6•}9.0. The mean axial length: 26.43•}2.20mm. RESULTS: The mean absolute errors between the predicted refraction and the refraction of after cataract surgery and the percentages that the error was within •}1.0D with each calculation: DK method: 1.18•}0.86D (45.5%), Holladay II formula: 0.93•}0.61D (63.6%), No-history method: 0.74•} 0.60D (54.5%), Haigis-L formula: 0.85•}0.70D (63.6%). CONCLUSION: Difference was found in these 4 intraocular lens power calculations after laser in situ keratomileusis. With Haigis-L formula, the percentage that the error between predicted refraction and the refraction of after cataract surgery was within •}1.0D was high and the error was small. With every calculation, in the case of eyes with long axial length, we found a tendency of myopic shift. For clinical application, including the evaluation of corneal refractive power after LASIK, close further fully examination into each characteristic of these calculations will be required.
