A i.e. 6 weeks Refraction & prescription of glasses is done after 1-2 weeks in phacoemulsification and 6-8 weeks in extracapsular cataract extractionQ If preoperatively the eye was emmetropic, a power of +10DQ is required to correct hypermetropia (not +16D, because the glasses are placed in front of eye) While in ametropic eye add the previous error of refraction in hypermetropics and substract the previous error in myopes. As there is complete loss of accommodation in aphakia +3 or +3.5 D spherical lenses are given for near work.
