Abstract
Myopics having more than 28 axial length have difficulty in getting correct biometry measurement. When above 30 to 32mm the ultrasound machine failed, Iol Master was used to measure the biometry of a 28 year old girl , wiearing -33 DS lens power. the dioptres required was –19 D in right eye and -15 DS in left eye. The IOL s had to be tailor made and finally -17D and -12D were inserted. The patient turned out hyermetropic. LASIK for hypermetropic is not popular, IOL exchange was difficult as all Bimetry reading here had already given surprises, Moreover the lenses were tailoir made. We were left with only choice of piggy back IOL . after correct measurements sulcofix lens was usedas piggy back . the patient was 6/9 unaided on post operative day. never before has she seen the world so broad without spects.
