Fifty eyes of 50 patients with axial myopia who underwent uncomplicated phacoemulsification and single-type IOL implantation for a target of emmetropia (plano to − 0.5 D) or intentional myopia (− 2.0 D to − 3.0 D) were selected. Preoperative ocular biometry was performed using IOLMaster700 in all eyes. Refractive prediction errors of 6 IOL formulas integrated into IOLMaster700 were compared between eyes with a target of emmetropia and intentional myopia.Results: The mean numerical errors of SRK/T (Sanders, Retzlaff, and Kraft/theoretical), Holladay 1, Hoffer Q, and Holladay 2 significantly differed between the two groups (p < 0.001, p = 0.008, 0.02, and 0.007, respectively). The values for mean numerical errors in eyes with a target of intentional myopia were smaller, showing relatively myopic outcome, as compared with those in eyes with a target of emmetropia. In eyes with a target of emmetropia, the mean numerical errors of Holladay 1 (p < 0.001, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.32 to 0.63), Hoffer Q (p = 0.001, 95% CI: 0.12 to 0.42), and Barrett Universal II (p = 0.007, 95% CI: 0.06 to 0.35) were significantly different from zero (hyperopic trend). Furthermore, in eyes with a target of intentional myopia, the mean numerical error of SRK/T (p = 0.001, 95% CI: − 0.61 to − 0.17) and Holladay 2 (p = 0.023, 95% CI: − 0.43 to − 0.04) were significantly different from zero (myopic trend).Conclusion: In patients with axial myopia, some IOL formulas may show a myopic trend in the refractive outcome when targeting intentional myopia as compared to emmetropia.Keywords: cataract surgery, postoperative refraction, intentional myopia, axial myopia, IOLMaster700
