Distribution of Anterior Chamber Angle Width and Correlation With Age, Refraction, and Anterior Chamber Depth—The Gutenberg Health Study
2016
PURPOSE Scheimpflug imaging allows quantitative analysis of the width of the anterior chamber angle. We report the population-based distribution of the anterior chamber angle width using this noncontact imaging technique and investigate associated factors. METHODS A population-based cross-sectional study was carried out in Germany. A comprehensive ophthalmologic examination including refraction, biometry, and Scheimpflug imaging was performed. Automated measurement of the anterior chamber angle was performed in each anterior chamber quadrant. Exclusion criteria were previous ocular surgery or inadequate image quality. Association analyses were carried out to determine independently associat…
Ocular biometric repeatability using a new high-resolution swept-source optical coherence tomographer.
2020
To assess the repeatability of ocular biometric parameters using a high-resolution imaging device.74 healthy right eyes were included in this study. Five-repeated measurements were taken with ANTERION high-resolution swept-source optical coherence tomographer (SS-OCT) to measure: corneal thickness (central and at 2, 4 and 6-mm diameters), aqueous depth (AD), lens thickness (LT), anterior chamber volume (ACV), axial length (AL), and pupil (diameter and position). The intrasubject standard deviation (SWe have not found statistically significant differences between repeated measurements (p 0.05). The mean difference for corneal thickness was between -0.08 and 0.28 μm. For AD and LT was 0.004 …
Posterior chamber phakic intraocular lenses to correct high myopia: A comparative study between Staar and Adatomed models
2001
ABSTRACT PURPOSE: To determine the feasibility of using posterior chamber phakic intraocular lenses (PIOLs) to treat high myopia, comparing two different models, Staar and Adatomed. METHODS: Twenty-four eyes from 12 patients were studied prospectively. A phakic Staar IOL was implanted in one eye of each patient, and the other eye received a phakic Adatomed IOL. Patients with uveitis or ocular trauma prior to ocular surgery, diabetic retinopathy, or capsular pseudoexfoliation were excluded. The mean preoperative spherical equivalent refraction was -16.00 ± 5.05 D for the Staar group and -15.39 ± 2.83 D for the Adatomed group. Average follow-up was 32.4 months (range, 19 to 46 mo) for the Ada…
Short-term Follow-up after Implantation of a Foldable Iris-Fixated Intraocular Lens in Phakic Eyes
2005
Objective To evaluate efficiency, predictability, stability, complications, and patient satisfaction after implantation of a foldable iris-fixated phakic intraocular lens (PIOL) for the correction of myopia. Design Prospective, nonrandomized, comparative (self-controlled) trial. Participants Forty-one eyes of 22 myopic patients aged 18 to 56 years (mean, 36 years) with average sphere of −8.2±2.01 diopters (D; range, −12.25 to −3.75 D) and average preoperative cylinder of −0.90±0.62 D (range, −2.50 to 0.00 D) were enrolled in this prospective study. Methods All eyes underwent implantation of a foldable iris-fixated PIOL with an optical zone of 6.0 mm. The follow-up was 6 months in all cases.…
Objective vs Subjective Vault Measurement After Myopic Implantable Collamer Lens Implantation
2009
PURPOSE: To evaluate the relationship between subjective measurements of vault and objective values measured with Visante optical coherence tomography (OCT) in eyes receiving an implantable contact lens (ICL) for myopia correction. DESIGN: Observational cross-sectional study. METHODS: SETTING: Fernández-Vega Ophthalmological Institute, Oviedo, Spain. PATIENTS: Four hundred and fifty-two eyes from 246 patients were elected to be implanted with a Visian ICL V4 (STAAR Surgical Inc, Monrovia, California, USA). OBSERVATION PROCEDURES: Subjective and objective measurements of vault after implantation of ICL. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Subjective vault classified in 5 levels assessed using an optical …
Phakic intraocular lenses to correct high myopia
2003
Abstract Purpose: To evaluate the feasibility and safety of using phakic intraocular lenses (IOLs) to correct high myopia by comparing 3 IOL models: Adatomed, Staar, and Artisan. Setting: La Fe University Hospital, Department of Ophthalmology, and the Fundacion Oftalmologica del Mediterraneo, Valencia, Spain. Methods: In this prospective comparative study, a phakic IOL was implanted in 217 highly myopic eyes (118 patients). Fifty-nine eyes received an Adatomed IOL, 21 eyes a Staar IOL, and 137 eyes an Artisan IOL. The mean preoperative spherical equivalent was −15.39 diopters (D) ± 2.83 (SD), −16.00 ± 5.05 D, and −16.17 ± 2.75 D in the Adatomed, Staar, and Artisan groups, respectively. The …
Optical quality in eyes with aspheric intraocular lenses and in younger and older adult phakic eyes: comparative study.
2009
To compare ocular higher-order aberrations (HOAs) in eyes with aspheric intraocular lenses (IOL) and in phakic eyes.Department of Ophthalmology, Military Health Service Institute, Warsaw, Poland.Higher-order aberrations with a 5.0 mm pupil and best spectacle-corrected visual acuity (BSCVA) were analyzed in a young phakic group (age 20 to 40 years), older phakic group (age 40 to 60 years), and a pseudophakic group (age 62 to 84 years; SN60WF aspheric IOL).The mean coma was 0.13 microm+/-0.07 (SD) in the younger phakic group, 0.18+/-0.08 microm in the older phakic group, and 0.16+/-0.08 microm in the pseudophakic group; the difference between the 2 phakic groups was statistically significant …
Scheimpflug biometry of the anterior segment after implantation of foldable iris-fixated lenses.
2006
ABSTRACT PURPOSE: To evaluate intraocular dimensions of the anterior segment of myopic phakic eyes after implantation of foldable iris-fixated lenses. METHODS: Seventeen myopic eyes that received a foldable iris-fixated phakic intraocular lens (PIOL) were assessed. Distances between the cornea and the IOLoptic edge and between the IOL optic and the crystalline lens were evaluated using Scheimpf lug photography 3 months postoperatively. RESULTS: The average postoperative distance between the central corneal endothelium and the anterior surface of the IOL was 2.01±0.26 mm. The distance between the corneal endothelium and the peripheral edge of the IOL averaged 1.32±0.18 mm at the 12 o'clock p…
