RESUMO
This study aimed to assess the effect of intraocular pressure (IOP) changes on biometry and intraocular lens (IOL) power calculation in patients diagnosed with primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) and ocular hypertension (OHT). This prospective non-randomized cohort study enrolled patients with diagnosed POAG and OHT, presenting with IOP levels exceeding 25 mmHg. Thai Clinical Trials Registry number was TCTR20180912007. Optical biometry, encompassing measurements such as corneal thickness (CCT), keratometry, anterior chamber depth (ACD), and axial length, was conducted before and after IOP reduction. The IOL power was also determined using the SRK/T formula. The main outcomes measured were alterations in biometry and IOL power. Correlations between IOP, biometric parameters, and IOL power were analyzed. In total, 28 eyes were included in the study, with a mean patient age of 65.71±10.2 years. After IOP reduction, all biometric parameters, except CCT and ACD, exhibited a decrease without reaching statistical significance (all p>0.05). Meanwhile, IOL power showed a slight increase of 0.214±0.42 diopters (P = 0.035). The correlation between IOP and biometric parameters was found to be weak. However, there was a moderate correlation between IOP and IOL power (r2 = 0.267). Notably, IOL power tended to increase by more than 0.5 diopters when IOP decreased by more than 10 mmHg (p < 0.001). In conclusion, changes in IOP among patients with POAG and OHT do not significantly impact biometry and IOL power calculations. Nonetheless, it may be prudent to consider a slight adjustment in IOL power when IOP is lowered by more than 10 mmHg.

PURPOSE: To compare corneal astigmatism measurements obtained using a new optical biometer (AL-Scan) and a standard biometer based on partial coherence interferometry (IOLMaster 500) for toric intraocular lens (IOL) selection. SETTING: Siriraj Hospital, Mahidol University, Bangkok, Thailand. DESIGN: Prospective comparative study. METHODS: Keratometry (K) readings were taken with the 2 biometers in eyes of cataract patients. The corneal astigmatism readings from the 2 devices were compared. The cylinder measurements were transformed into J0 and J45 vector components for analysis, and the devices' values were compared using the paired t test. Correlation coefficients were calculated. The Bland-Altman method was used to evaluate the agreement between the sets of measurements. RESULTS: One hundred thirty-seven eyes (81 patients) were enrolled. The magnitude of astigmatism between the new biometer 2.4 mm zone and the standard biometer was similar (P = .19). There was a statistically significant difference between values from the new biometer 3.3 mm zone and the standard biometer (P < .05). There was good correlation in the overall magnitude of astigmatism between devices. There was a trend of low correlation toward the flat cornea (K <43.0 diopters [D]), low corneal cylinder (<1.0 D), and with-the-rule astigmatism. The IOL toricity calculated from both devices was similar. CONCLUSIONS: Corneal astigmatism measurements with the 2 biometers were similar in magnitude, especially in 2.4 mm zone of the new biometer. There was no difference in the toric IOL selections between the devices. FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE: No author has a financial or proprietary interest in any material or method mentioned.

PURPOSE: To compare the repeatability and reproducibility of ocular biometry and intraocular lens (IOL) power obtained with a new optical biometer (AL-Scan) and a standard optical biometer (IOLMaster 500). SETTING: Siriraj Hospital, Mahidol University, Bangkok, Thailand. DESIGN: Prospective comparative study. METHODS: Two independent operators measured eyes with cataract using both biometers. The keratometry values, axial length, anterior chamber depth, white-to-white (WTW) corneal diameter, and IOL power calculated using the Holladay 1 formula obtained with each device were recorded. Intraoperator repeatability and interoperator reproducibility of both devices were analyzed using the intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC). The agreement in ocular biometry and IOL power between the 2 devices was evaluated by the Bland-Altman method. RESULTS: The study recruited 137 eyes of 81 patients. The repeatability and reproducibility of both devices were high for all ocular biometry measurements (ICC, 0.87-1.00). Except for the WTW corneal diameter (ICC, 0.44), the agreement between the biometers was also high (ICC, 0.98-0.99). The IOL powers calculated by the Holladay 1 formula were similar between the 2 biometers. CONCLUSION: The new optical biometer provided excellent repeatability and reproducibility for all ocular biometry. Agreement with the standard optical biometer was good except for the WTW corneal diameter.
