Excellent Reproducibility

Aim. The OA-1000 (Tomey, Japan) is a new optical biometer, which measures axial length (AL), anterior chamber depth (ACD), and central corneal thickness (CT) utilizing optical interference technology. The aim of this study was to prove the reproducibility which is considered fundamental for other clinical investigations.Methods. 55 healthy volunteers were enrolled in this study. For each measurement of AL, ACD, and CT the biometer is grabbing a sequence of 10 shots and mean value (mean) and standard deviation (SD) are displayed. Five consecutive measurements were performed and average and standard deviation were assessed. Cronbach’sαwas derived as a quality measure for reproducibility.Results. For AL measurement Cronbach’sαwas 1.000, for CT 0.999, and for ACD 0.979, respectively. Mean value for AL was23.36±1.03 mm, for ACD it was3.60±0.687 mm, and for CT it was552.08±29.70 μm, respectively. Standard deviation for AL was0.013±0.022 mm, for ACD0.09±0.11 mm, and for CT2.18±1.75 μm. One correlation was found between mean values for AL and ACD (R = 0.388,P = 0.005); no other correlations were found between mean values or values of standard deviation of AL, ACD, or CT.Conclusion. The OA-1000 shows an excellent reproducibility for measurement of AL, ACD, and CT and can be used in clinical practice.

Purpose. To assess the repeatability and agreement of parameters obtained with two biometers and to compare the predictability. Methods. Biometry was performed on 101 eyes with cataract using the IOLMaster 700 and the Galilei G6. Three measurements were obtained per eye with each device, and repeatability was evaluated. The axial length (AL), anterior chamber depth (ACD), keratometry (K), white-to-white (WTW) corneal diameter, central corneal thickness (CCT), and lens thickness (LT) were measured and postoperative predictability was compared. Results. Measurements could not be obtained with the IOLMaster 700 in one eye and in seven eyes with the Galilei G6 due to dense cataract. Both the IOLMaster 700 and Galilei G6 showed good repeatability, although the IOLMaster 700 showed better repeatability than the Galilei G6. There were no statistically significant differences in AL, ACD, steepest K, WTW, and LT (P>0.050), although flattest K, mean K, and CCT differed (P<0.050). The proportion of eyes with an absolute prediction error within 0.5 D was 85.0% for the IOLMaster 700 and was 80.0% for the Galilei G6 based on the SRK/T formula. Conclusions. Two biometers showed high repeatability and relatively good agreements. The swept-source optical biometer demonstrated better repeatability, penetration, and an overall lower prediction error.

Purpose.To compare between a new optical biometer (AL-Scan, Nidek Co., Aichi, Japan) and an anterior segment optical coherence tomographer (Visante AS-OCT, Carl Zeiss Meditec, Dublin, USA) for measuring central corneal thickness (CCT), anterior chamber depth (ACD), and aqueous depth (AD).Methods.Sixty-three eyes of 63 normal subjects were examined with AL-Scan and Visante AS-OCT in this prospective study. One eye per subject was measured three times with both devices to record their CCT, ACD, and AD. All procedures were performed by the same operator. Agreement between the two devices was assessed using pairedt-tests, Bland-Altman plots, and 95% limits of agreement (LoA).Results.The mean CCT, ACD, and AD measured by AL-Scan were538.59±27.37 μm,3.70±0.30 mm, and3.16±0.30 mm, respectively. The mean values obtained by the Visante OCT were536.14±26.61 μm for CCT,3.71±0.29 mm for ACD, and3.17±0.29 mm for AD. The mean CCT by the AL-Scan was higher than that obtained by the Visante AS-OCT (difference =2.45±6.07 μm,P<0.05). The differences in ACD and AD measurements were not statistically significant. The 95% LoA of CCT, ACD, and AD were between −9.44 and 14.35 μm, −0.15 and 0.12 mm, and −0.15 and 0.12 mm, respectively.Conclusions.Since these two devices were comparable for measuring CCT, ACD, and AD, their results can be interchangeably used in the clinic.

Aim: To evaluate whether a significant difference exists between the initial and final mean central corneal thickness that might affect Goldmann applanation tonometer recordings of patients with allergic conjunctivitis treated with desonide 0.25% ophthalmic solution, and to determine the effect of desonide on intraocular pressure by using adjusted intraocular pressure values.Methods: This double-blind randomised placebo-controlled trial enrolled 30 patients (60 eyes) with allergic conjunctivitis. Patients were randomly assigned to receive desonide to 1 eye (study eye) and preservative-free tear supplement (Tears Naturale Free®) to the other eye (control eye) 3 times daily for 3 weeks. Goldmann applanation tonometry and central corneal thickness of both eyes were recorded on the day of presentation and 3 weeks later.Results: Regression of itching, tearing, conjunctival hyperaemia, and tarsal conjunctival papillary reaction were noted in the study eyes after 3 weeks of treatment. The control eyes showed mild regression of pruritis, tearing, conjunctival hyperaemia, and tarsal conjunctival papillary reaction after 3 weeks. There was a significant difference between the initial and final mean central corneal thickness values for the study eyes (p = 0.003). There were no statistically significant differences between the initial and final mean values of Goldmann applanation tonometry and adjusted intraocular pressure for the study eyes. No statistically significant differences were found between the initial and final mean values of any of the parameters for the control eyes.Conclusion: Inflammation-induced increase in central corneal thickness of patients with allergic conjunctivitis treated with desonide showed statistically significant regression. However, this regression did not significantly affect Goldmann applanation tonometry and adjusted intraocular pressure values of the treated eyes.

Abstract Background: To create an anterior chamber depth (ACD) regression model for adult cataract surgery candidates from China, and to evaluate the distribution of their ocular biometric parameters.Methods: The ocular biometric records of 28,709 right eyes of cataract surgery candidates who were treated at Aier Eye Hospitals in nine cities from 2018 to 2019 were retrospectively analyzed. All measurements were taken with IOLMaster 700. We included patients who were at least 40 years old and were diagnosed with cataract.Results: The mean age of the patients was 68.6 ± 11.0 years. The mean values recorded were as follows: axial length (AL), 24.17 ± 2.47 mm; mean keratometry (Km) value, 44.09 ± 3.25 D; corneal astigmatism (CA), 1.06 ± 0.98 D; ACD, 3.02 ± 0.45 mm; lens thickness (LT), 4.52 ± 0.45 mm; central corneal thickness (CCT), 0.534 ± 0.04 mm; and white to white (WTW) corneal diameter, 11.64 ± 0.46 mm. The proportion of patients with long axial length (AL >25 mm) decreased with age. ACD, LT, AL, Km, WTW, and age were correlated. In the multivariate regression analysis of ACD, which included LT, AL, WTW, sex, Km, CCT, and age, there was a reasonable prediction with adjusted R2 = 0.629.Conclusions: The results show that high myopes are inclined to schedule cataract surgery at a younger age. LT and AL were found to be important factors that affect ACD. This study provides reference data for cataract patients from China.

Background.To estimate repeatability and comparability of central corneal thickness (CCT) and keratometry measurements obtained by four different devices in healthy eyes.Methods.Fifty-five healthy eyes from 55 volunteers were enrolled in this study. CCT (IOLMaster 700, Pentacam HR, and Cirrus HD-OCT) and keratometry readings (IOLMaster 700, Pentacam HR, and iDesign) were measured. For statistical analysis, the corneal spherocylinder was converted into power vectors (J0, J45). Repeatability was assessed by intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC). Agreement of measurements between the devices was evaluated by the Bland-Altman method.Results.The analysis of repeatability of CCT data of IOLMaster 700, Pentacam HR, and Cirrus HD-OCT showed high ICCs (range 0.995 to 0.999). The comparison of CCT measurements revealed statistically significant differences between Pentacam HR versus IOLMaster 700 (p<0.0001) and Pentacam HR versus Cirrus HD-OCT (p<0.0001), respectively. There was no difference in CCT measurements between IOLMaster 700 and Cirrus HD-OCT (p=0.519). The repeatability of keratometry readings (J0 and J45) of IOLMaster 700, Pentacam HR, and iDesign was also high with ICCs ranging from 0.974 to 0.999. The Pentacam HR revealed significantly higher J0 in comparison to IOLMaster 700 (p=0.009) and iDesign (p=0.041); however, no significant difference was between IOLMaster 700 and iDesign (p=0.426). Comparison of J45 showed no significant difference between IOLMaster 700, Pentacam HR, and iDesign. These results were in accordance with Bland-Altman plots.Conclusion.In clinical practice, the devices analyzed should not be used interchangeably due to low agreement regarding CCT as well as keratometry readings.

Objective. This study aimed to analyze the distribution of lens thickness (LT) and its associations in age-related cataract patients based on swept-source optical coherence tomography (SS-OCT). Methods. This cross-sectional study included 59,726 Chinese age-related cataract patients. Only right-eye data were included in the study. Repeated measures of ocular parameters were performed using an IOL Master 700 device. The distributions of ocular biometric data including anterior chamber depth (ACD), LT, axial length (AL), central corneal thickness (CCT), white-to-white (WTW), and mean keratometry (MK) and their associations with age were assessed. The anterior segment (AS) was measured as the sum of CCT, ACD, and LT, while the vitreous chamber depth (VCD) was calculated as the difference between AL and AS. The values of LT : AL, AS : AL, and VCD : AL in different AL groups and their changes are the main outcome measures used to observe the proportion of the anterior and posterior segments of the eye. Results. Biometric data were available for 59,726 individuals. The mean age was 68.81 years (range = 40–100); 40.62% were male and 59.38% were female. Mean anterior chamber depth (ACD) was 3.02 ± 0.44 mm, mean LT was 4.51 ± 0.44 mm, mean axial length (AL) was 23.89 ± 1.92 mm, mean central corneal thickness (CCT) was 0.53 ± 0.03 mm, mean white-to-white (WTW) was 11.64 ± 0.44 mm, and mean keratometry (MK) was 44.27 ± 1.65 diopter. Female patients had shorter AL, shallower ACD, smaller CCT and WTW, decreased LT, and steeper corneas ( p  < 0.005). ACD revealed the strongest negative correlation ( p  ≤ 0.001, r = –0.682) with LT. Age ( p  ≤ 0.001, r = 0.348) showed a moderate positive correlation, whereas MK ( p  ＜ 0.05, r = 0.011), CCT ( p  ≤ 0.001, r = 0.041) had a weak positive correlation and WTW ( p  ≤ 0.001, r = –0.034) had a weak negative correlation with LT. A nonlinear correlation was found between LT and AL. LT increased with age in both males and females. LT changed variably in eyes with AL less than 27 mm, LT decreased as AL increased, then LT gradually increased as AL increased in extremely long and extra-long eyes ( p  ≤ 0.001). LT : AL and AS : AL decreased as AL increased, VCD : AL gradually increased as AL increased in highly myopic eyes, and VCD : AL increased by about 0.01 for every 1 mm increase in AL. Conclusions. Among Chinese age-related cataract patients, we found LT to have the strongest relation with ACD. The lens was thicker in elderly patients and women. The correlation between LT and AL is not a simple negative correlation; with the increase of age, LT decreases first and then increases. The proportion of VCD is constantly rising with the elongation of AL.

Abstract Purpose: The primary aim of this study was to analyze the distribution of ocular parameters of children aged from eight to eighteen-year-old with low to moderate myopia as well as offer useful information for the design and clinical fitting of ortho-k lens in China.Methods: In this retrospective study, we collected data of 300 subjects (600 eyes) age between eight to eighteen-year-old from the myopic control outpatient clinic at Beijing Tongren Hospital, Beijing, China. The spherical equivalent (SE), axial length (AL), central corneal thickness (CCT), anterior chamber depth (ACD), corneal endothelial cell density (CECD)，corneal diameter (CD), simulated K (Sim K) were collected from all the subjects and analyzed. Results: The mean of SE for all subjects was -3.12 ± 1.21D, the median was -3.16D. The mean of AL for all subjects was 24.72 ± 0.83 mm, the median was 24.72 mm. The mean of CCT for all subjects was 537.8 ± 29.82 μm, the median was 538.17 μm. The mean of CECD for all subjects was 3340.3 ± 352.6 cells/mm2, the median was 3357.77 cells/mm2. The mean of ACD for all subjects was 3.71 ± 0.21 mm, the median was 3.69 mm. The mean of CD for all subjects was 12.15 ± 1.67 mm, the median was 12.05 mm. The mean of flat K was 42.80 ± 1.29, the median was 42.81. The mean of steep K was 43.76 ± 1.37, the median was 43.76.Conclusions: This study provided the distribution of ocular parameters to offer useful information for diagnosis of many eye conditions. Meanwhile, the distribution of ocular parameters of children aged from eight to eighteen-year-old with low to moderate myopia is beneficial to make the application of overnight orthokeratology lens more appropriate and effective.
