  • In the formulas constants meant to be adjustable were adjusted by MLR regression (there is no issue with collinearity) to give zero offset. In the formula by Preussner et al, the constants are not meant to be adjustable, leading to non-zero offset.

  • ACD, anterior chamber depth; CR, corneal radius; CT, corneal thickness; IOL, intraocular lens; LT, lens thickness; mLP, middle lens position; MLR, multiple linear regression.
