AB The purpose was to review and document the methods used to calculate the power of the  intraocular lens (IOL) to be implanted in cataract surgery in the specific scenario  of eyes with keratoconus (KC). This review was conducted of all scientific articles  published in English that focused on the parameters and formulas used to calculate  the power of the IOL to be implanted in eyes with KC undergoing cataract surgery.  There are few publications that show in detail how IOL power is calculated in those  particular cases. If the keratometric value is used based on the standard refractive  index (1.3375), this results in a postoperative refractive error with a tendency to  hyperopia. The SRK/T formula is the formula yielding the best outcomes. The greater  the severity of KC, the greater the deviation of the postoperative refractive status  deviation from the target outcome.
