A large angle kappa may reduce the predictability of IOL power calculation. Ocular biomechanics likely influence the refractive outcomes after IOL implantation. This study shows that eyes with softer corneal biomechanics have more myopic prediction error. This may relate to anteriorization of the effective lens position. Dynamic measurements may be the way to progress into future formulas.
