An analysis of the factors involved in IOL decentration after phacoemulsification using CASIA 2 anterior segment optical coherence tomography.

PURPOSE: To evaluate the magnitude of IOL transversal shift (ITS) after phacoemulsification and to analyse the factors contributing to IOL decentration and ITS. METHODS: 94 consecutive patients who underwent cataract surgery and IOL implantation was enrolled. Each patient underwent anterior segment optical coherence tomography with CASIA 2 (Tomey, Nagoya, Japan) to assess crystalline lens decentration, thickness and diameter seven days preoperatively and at one and sixty days postoperatively. Univariate and multivariate linear regression analysis were performed to evaluate the determinants of ITS and final decentration. RESULTS: The preoperative crystalline lens diameter was associated with the ITS and with the IOL final decentration. A positive association between the final IOL decentration and the first post-surgical day decentration was found (p < 0.0001). CONCLUSION: Greater crystalline lens diameter was associated with greater decentration and with greater ITS. Day-one IOL decentration seems to be the main determinant of final IOL decentration.

Evaluation of changes of anterior segment parameters in patients with pseudoexfoliation syndrome after cataract surgery using anterior segment optical coherence tomography.

The aim of the study was to compare the anterior segment parameters after cataract surgery in pseudoexfoliation syndrome (PEX) and control eyes. We conducted a prospective comparative study of 36 eyes (PEX group), 16 eyes (PEXG group) and 46 eyes (control group) of 98 patients after phacoemulsification with intraocular lens implantation. Before surgery, 1 week, 1 month and 3 months postoperatively, anterior chamber parameters were evaluated by swept source anterior segment optical coherence tomography (AS-OCT). Anterior chamber depth (ACD), angle opening distance (AOD500/750), trabecular-iris space area (TISA500/750), trabecular-iris angle (TIA500/750) and lens vault (LV) were assessed at each study visit. Preoperatively, ACD, AOD500/750 and TISA500/750 were significantly smaller, while LV was significantly greater in PEX and PEXG eyes than in controls. 3 months postoperatively all irido-corneal parameters and ACD were significantly greater in all study groups without intergroup differences. ACD and LV significantly increased in PEX group between 1 and 3 months after surgery while being stable in control group. Relative increases in ACD, AOD500, TISA750, TIA500/750 were significantly higher in PEX and PEXG groups than in controls. Our study finds that ACD and iridocorneal parameters in AS-OCT demonstrated significantly greater relative increases 3 months after phacoemulsification in PEX and PEXG groups than in control eyes. Significantly greater deepening of anterior chamber and opening of the irido-corneal angle may be a reason for different refractive outcomes and IOP control in patients with PEX and PEXG after routine cataract surgery.

Zonular instability-associated morphologic features in eyes with primary angle closure disease using the swept-source anterior segment - optical coherence tomography system.

BACKGROUND: This study aims to investigate the morphologic features of the crystalline lens in Primary Angle Closure Disease (PACD) patients with zonular instability during cataract surgery using the swept-source CASIA 2 Anterior Segment-Optical Coherence Tomography (AS-OCT) system. METHODS: A total of 398 eyes (125 PACD eyes with zonular instability, 133 PACD eyes with zonular stability, and 140 cataract patient controls) of 398 patients who underwent cataract surgery combined or not glaucoma surgery between January 2021 and January 2023 were enrolled. The crystalline lens parameters were measured by CASIA2 AS-OCT. Then, logistic regression was performed to evaluate the risk factors associated with zonular instability. RESULTS: The results revealed that PACD eyes had a more anterior lens equator position, a steeper anterior curvature of lens, shorter Axial Length (AL), shallower Anterior Chamber Distance (ACD), higher Lens Vault (LV) and thicker Lens Thickness (LT), when compared to eyes in the cataract control group. Furthermore, PACD eyes in the zonular instability group had steeper front R, front Rs and Front Rf, flatter back Rf, thicker lens anterior part thickness, higher lens anterior-to-posterior part thickness ratios, shallower ACD, and greater LV, when compared to PACD eyes with zonular stability. The logistic regression analysis, which was adjusted for age and gender, revealed that zonular instability was positively correlated with anterior part thickness, lens anterior-to-posterior part thickness ratio, and LV, but was negatively correlated with lens anterior radius and ACD. CONCLUSION: Steeper anterior curvature, increased lens anterior part thickness, higher anterior-to-posterior part thickness ratio, shallower ACD, and greater LV are the anatomic features of PACD eyes associated with zonular instability.

Repeatability assessment of anterior segment measurements in myopic patients using an anterior segment OCT with placido corneal topography and agreement with a swept-source OCT.

BACKGROUND: The precision of anterior segment biometric measurements in eyes has become increasingly important in refractive surgery. The purpose of this study is to assess the repeatability of the automatic measurements provided by a new spectral-domain optical coherence tomograph (SD-OCT)/Placido topographer (MS-39, CSO) and its agreement with a swept-source OCT (SS-OCT) biometer (CASIA SS-1000, Tomey) in patients with myopia. METHODS: The right eye of 235 subjects was scanned 3 times with both devices. The evaluated parameters included central corneal radius of the steep meridian, central corneal radius of the flat meridian, mean central corneal radius, thinnest corneal thickness, central corneal thickness, anterior chamber depth, corneal volume and diameter. The intraobserver repeatability of the MS-39 measurements was calculated using intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC), within subject standard deviation, coefficient of repeatability, coefficient of variation and repeated-measures analysis of variance of the 3 repeated measurements. The agreement between the two devices was evaluated by 95% limits of agreement (LoA). RESULTS: The majority of the parameters acquired from MS-39 showed high repeatability. The repeatability of corneal diameter was slightly lower than the other measurements, although the ICC remained high. Agreement with the CASIA SS-1000 was good, indicated by the Bland-Altman plots with narrow 95% LoA values for all parameters assessed. CONCLUSIONS: The high repeatability of automatic measurements by the new device supports its clinical application in eyes with myopia, and the good agreement between the two devices indicates they could be used interchangeably for the parameters evaluated.

Evaluation of pericardium patch graft thickness in patients with Ahmed glaucoma valve implantation: an anterior segment OCT study.

PURPOSE: To evaluate the changes in thickness of tissues, specifically the pericardium patch graft (PPG) covering the silicone tube in Ahmed Glaucoma Valve (AGV) surgery. STUDY DESIGN: Prospective observational study. METHODS: This study included cases with refractory glaucoma that underwent AGV implantation with PPG coverage. Conjunctival epithelium, stroma and PPG thickness covering the tube were measured using anterior segment optical coherence tomography (AS-OCT) at 1, 6 and 12 months. Additionally, the same measurements were taken 1500 µm away from the tube as a control for the central measurements. RESULTS: Twenty-seven eyes of 27 patients were evaluated in the study. Although PPG thickness decreased significantly in both regions, the amount of reduction was more pronounced centrally. Centrally, the reduction rate was 21.2% and 34.8% during the 1-6 months period and 6-12 months period, while peripherally it was 3.5% and 5.1%, respectively. No change was observed in the thickness of the epithelium during the follow-up period. There was a significant thinning of the stroma in the central and peripheral regions during the 1-6 months period (30.5% and 17%, respectively). No cases of exposure were observed during the follow-up period. CONCLUSION: Although the most evident thinning of the layers covering the tube was observed in the early postoperative period, PPG showed a stable decrease even in the late period. The progressive reduction in the PPG thickness observed also in the peripheral region indicates that factors beyond mechanical forces contribute to this degenerative process. AS-OCT could be a valuable non-invasive tool in clarifying this process.

Bilateral Peters' anomaly, aniridia and Wilms tumour (WAGR syndrome) in monozygotic twins.

AIM: This study reports the bilateral association of Peters' anomaly and congenital aniridia in monozygotic twins subsequently diagnosed with Wilms tumour (WAGR syndrome). METHODS: Two monozygotic female twins were referred at age 2 months with bilateral corneal opacity. A diagnosis of Peters' anomaly associated to aniridia was made in both eyes of both twins. Physical examination and ultrasonography were carried out at 12 months of age to explore the possibility of WAGR-related anomalies, specifically Wilms tumour. DNA were isolated and subjected to whole exome sequencing. RESULTS: Peters' anomaly associated to aniridia in both eyes as well as bilateral Wilms tumour in both children were diagnosed. Exome analyses showed a large heterozygous deletion encompassing 6 648 473 bp in chromosome 11p13, using Integrative Genomics Viewer and AnnotSV software. CONCLUSION: WAGR syndrome is a rare contiguous gene deletion syndrome with a greater risk of developing Wilms tumour associated with Peters' anomaly and congenital aniridia. However, co-occurrence of both anomalies was rarely reported in twins, and never in both eyes of monozygotic twins. Here, we report the bilateral association of Peters' anomaly and congenital aniridia in monozygotic twins with WAGR syndrome.

Evaluation of the Effect of Scleral Buckling on Anterior Segment and Refractive Changes Using Anterior Segment Optical Coherence Tomography.

PURPOSE: To evaluate the changes of anterior segment and refractive parameters after scleral buckling (SB) surgery for uncomplicated rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD) using anterior segment optical coherence tomography (AS-OCT). METHODS: Thirty-six RRD eyes were consecutively enrolled. Analysis concerned the central corneal thickness (CCT), anterior chamber depth (ACD), anterior chamber volume (ACV), iris-trabecular contact (ITC), angel opening distance (AOD), angle recess area (ARA), trabecular-iris space area (TISA)，trabecular iris angle (TIA) and refractive parameters, including average keratometry (AvgK), cylindrical power (CYL), regular astigmatism, asymmetry and high order irregularity (HOI) at baseline and 1 day, 1 month, 2 months, 6 months and 12 months postoperatively. AS-OCT was performed at RRD diagnosis and day 1, week 1, month 1 and month 6 after SB to evaluate the scleral buckling. RESULTS: A statistically significant postoperative CCT increase, ACD and ACV decrease were observed at 1 day and 1 month postoperatively. ITC analysis showed that the angle of the entire circumference narrowed at 1 month postoperatively. There was a significant decrease in all the angle parameters (AOD500/750, ARA500/750, TISA500/750, and ARA500/750) at 1 day and 1 month after SB surgery. However, all of the above parameters returned to the preoperative level at 12 months. Refractive parameters including AvgK, regular astigmatism, CYL, asymmetry, and HOI of anterior corneal surface and total corneal increased on the 1 day and 1 month after SB surgery and persisted even after 12 months follow-up. However, there was no significant difference in refractive parameters of posterior corneal surface during follow-up. CONCLUSION: The changes in the structure of anterior segments after SB surgery were almost returned to the preoperative levels at 12 months postoperatively. However, SB surgery has a long-term effect on refractive parameters throughout a 12-month follow-up.

Anterior Segment Optical Coherence Tomography for Cases of High Intraocular Pressure Following XEN Implant for Glaucoma.

PRCIS: This study showed that the XEN patency should be verified by OCT imaging in cases of encapsulated blebs. Although fibrosis plays the principal role, humor aqueous flow reduction could affect the "spacer" effect that inhibits the fibroblast attachments. PURPOSE: To evaluate the application of the anterior segment optical coherence tomography (AS-OCT) imaging in studying the relationship between a low flow rate through the XEN63 and the development of a cystic bleb. METHODS: Retrospective case series of 3 eyes presenting a cystic bleb after an XEN63 implantation for uncontrolled intraocular pressure (IOP). Demographic and clinical data were obtained from medical records. The imaging findings, complications, and managements following the surgery were evaluated. RESULTS: Three patients, with an average age of 67.3 years, initially showed a patent stent lumen and a functional bleb after surgery. The IOP of all eyes increased on average at 28.3 days from the surgery, with a mean value of 39.66 mm Hg. The slit lamp examination showed a cystic bleb. The AS-OCT imaging confirmed the previous finding and revealed either a partial or total occlusion of the stent internal ostium. A Nd:YAG laser, in proximity to the ostium, was performed to resolve the obstruction. Although the AS-OCT imaging showed the device patency and the IOP immediately decreased, the latter became elevated again. Consequently, in all the cases, a further needling procedure was needed to achieve an adequate IOP reduction. Six months after the two-step procedure, the IOP averaged 13.33 mm Hg, the XEN63 lumens appeared cleared, and the blebs showed a functional morphology. No adverse events were observed. CONCLUSION: The development of a cystic bleb may result from an altered balance between the flow rate through the XEN63 and the fibrosis development in the postoperative healing process. A proper follow-up based on slit lamp biomicroscopy, IOP measurement, and AS-OCT imaging is advisable to estimate and manage a cystic bleb following XEN63 implantation.

[Applications of anterior segment optical coherence tomography in corneal refractive surgery].

Anterior segment optical coherence tomography (AS-OCT) has the characteristics of non-contact, noninvasive, high sensitivity, and repeatability, and offers high-resolution in vivo imaging of the structures of the anterior eye segment. It can be used in the diagnosis and assistance of conditions related to the anterior eye segment. This review provides an update on the research and clinical applications of AS-OCT in corneal refractive surgery, including preoperative keratoconus screening, intraoperative real-time visualization of corneal structures, postoperative corneal evaluation, and management of postoperative complications. We also explore the potential application of AS-OCT in combination with corneal biomechanical detection for corneal refractive surgery.

Peering into the eye: A comprehensive look at ultrasound biomicroscopy (UBM) and its diagnostic value in anterior segment disorders.

Background: Ultrasound biomicroscopy (UBM) is a noninvasive imaging modality that enables in-vivo visualization of the structures of the anterior segment of the eye. Unlike routine ophthalmic diagnostic ultrasound which uses frequencies of 5-10 MHz, UBM utilizes ultrasound frequencies in the range of 50-100 MHz. The high-frequency probes in UBM allows for higher resolution and better visualization of subsurface ocular structures, even in the presence of anatomic or pathological obscuration. UBM has qualitative as well as quantitative applications in various disorders affecting the anterior segment of the eye. Despite its huge importance, many clinicians lack in knowledge about the technique and its clinical usefulness. The current educational video aims to address this gap in knowledge by highlighting the technique and various clinical indications of UBM. Purpose: The purpose of this video is to demonstrate the technique of UBM and showcase its quantitative and qualitative implications and importance through various clinical cases. Synopsis: UBM is an imaging technique that assesses the depth of tissue structures by measuring the time delay of the returning ultrasound signal. This modality is capable of measuring the size of various structures within the eye, such as the cornea, iris, ciliary body, sclera, and the depth of the anterior and posterior chamber. To perform a UBM, a transducer is inserted into a specially designed eye cup filled with distilled water, creating a water bath environment. Axial and longitudinal scans can be performed in a similar fashion as in routine diagnostic B-scan ultrasound. Quantitative indications for UBM depicted in this video include measurements of corneal thickness, depth of the anterior chamber, and the width of the angle. The video also showcases how UBM can aid in the diagnosis and management of various anterior segment disorders like angle-closure glaucoma, plateau iris configuration, secondary glaucoma, and anterior uveitis with complicated cataract. Qualitative indications for UBM highlighted in this video include its role in intermediate uveitis, ocular hypotony, ocular surface tumors, cystic lesions of iris, and identifying the location and type of intraocular foreign bodies in the anterior segment based on the type of artifact seen. Additionally, the video shows the applications of UBM in scleral and episcleral pathologies. Highlights: This video will educate clinicians about the technique of UBM and showcase a bouquet of UBM findings in various case scenarios, helping one to better understand the potential of this modality in clinical practice.

Changes in Anterior Segment Parameters After Laser Peripheral Iridotomy in Caucasian Eyes With Different Primary Angle Closure Mechanisms.

PRCIS: Subgrouping of angle closure mechanisms based on the swept-source optical coherence tomography images may help to identify the predominant underlying anatomic mechanism, evaluate personal treatment, and improve the better outcomes. PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to evaluate changes in anterior segment parameters in Caucasian eyes with different angle closure mechanisms before and after laser peripheral iridotomy (LPI). METHODS: Sixty-six subjects underwent swept-source optical coherence tomography (CASIA, Tomey Corporation) angle imaging in the dark before and 7 days after LPI. On the basis of the baseline swept-source optical coherence tomography images, the eyes were categorized into 4 angle closure mechanisms, namely pupillary block (PB), plateau iris configuration (PIC), thick peripheral iris (TPI), and large lens vault (LLV). Sixteen out of 128 cross-sectional images (11.25 degrees apart) per volume scan were selected for analysis. We used a generalized estimating equation to compare quantitative parameters among angle closure mechanisms and between before and after LPI after adjusting the intereye correlation. RESULTS: The mean age of subjects was 67.7±9.2 years, with the majority being female (82.2%). One hundred twenty-nine eyes (67 primary angle closure suspects, 34 primary angle closure, and 28 primary angle closure glaucoma) were categorized into PB (n=71, 55%), PIC (n=40, 31%), TPI (n=14, 10.9%), and LLV (n=4, 3.1%). Anterior chamber depth was the shallowest in the LLV, followed by TPI, PB, and PIC group at baseline. Widening of the angle and reduction of the iris curvature (IC) due to LPI were observed in all groups (all P <0.01). When compared to the PB group, the LPI-induced angle widening in the TPI group was significantly less even though the iris curvature reduction in the TPI group was greater (all P <0.05). CONCLUSIONS: In patients with angle closure, anterior segment morphology and LPI-induced angle widening were different among the various angle closure mechanisms.

Anterior segment structure changes caused by different luminance light after implantable collamer lens surgery.

BACKGROUNDS: To investigate the changes of anterior eye segment with implantable collamer lens (ICL) under mesopic and photopic conditions. METHOD: Forty-seven eyes of myopic patients who underwent ICL V4c implantation were included. Three months after surgery, the pupil diameter (PD), dynamic vault, ACD (distance from the posterior corneal surface to the anterior lens surface), ACD-ICL (distance from the posterior corneal surface to the anterior ICL surface), and anterior chamber angle parameters were measured using the anterior segment optical coherence tomography (AS-OCT, Carl Zeiss AG, Germany) under completely mesopic (0 lx) and photopic (5290 lx) lighting conditions. RESULTS: Compared with mesopic conditions, a significant decreased vault was detected in photopic conditions (486.7 ± 186.1 µm versus 643.5 ± 191.2 µm, p < 0.001), while the ACD-ICL increased significantly (2.54 ± 0.24 mm versus 2.37 ± 0.23 mm, p < 0.001). The pupil was smaller in photopic condition (2.66 ± 0.23 mm versus 5.62 ± 0.55 mm, p < 0.001). ACD didn't change(3.32 ± 0.24 mm versus 3.31 ± 0.22 mm, p = 0.079). The change of the vault was positively related to the changes of the PD (r2 = 0.301, p = 0.04). There were no statistical difference between the change of vault and the change of ACD-ICL (158.0 ± 58.1 µm versus 165.9 ± 65.3 µm, p = 0.320). CONCLUSION: When exposed to high intensity light after ICL surgery, the pupil constricted, vault decreased, ACA widened and ACD-ICL increased. All these changes were caused by the change of iris not the crystalline lens.

Changes in Anterior Segment Morphology and Intraocular Pressure after Cataract Surgery in Non-glaucomatous Eyes.

BACKGROUND: It is known that cataract extraction is associated with a significant reduction in intraocular pressure, especially in narrow angled eyes; however, the modifications of anterior segment parameters associated with this phenomenon have still not been completely defined. The purpose of this study was to evaluate changes in anterior segment anatomy and intraocular pressure after cataract surgery in non-glaucomatous eyes. METHODS AND MATERIAL: This retrospective case series study included 64 eyes of 64 consecutive patients who underwent phacoemulsification with intraocular lens implantation. Anterior segment parameters and intraocular pressure were assessed and compared before and 6 months after surgery. Anterior segment imaging was performed using Casia SS-1000 anterior segment optical coherence tomography (Tomey, Nagoya, Japan). Anterior segment measurements included anterior chamber depth, anterior chamber width, anterior chamber volume, angle opening distance at 500 µm anterior to the scleral spur, angle recess area 750 µm from the scleral spur, lens vault, trabecular iris space area at 500 µm from the scleral spur, and trabecular iris angle at 500 µm from the scleral spur. Intraocular pressure was measured using the Goldmann applanation tonometer (Model AT 900 C/M, Haag-Streit, Bern, Switzerland). Anterior segment parameters and the relationship of changes in intraocular pressure were also evaluated. RESULTS: All anterior segment parameters increased significantly after surgery (p < 0.05). Both angle opening distance at 500 µm anterior to the scleral spur and anterior chamber depth changes were positively correlated with the preoperative lens vault. The mean intraocular pressure significantly decreased from 14.91 mmHg (± 2.8 SD) to 12.91 mmHg (± 3.13 SD) (p < 0.001). Changes in intraocular pressure correlated negatively with values for the width of the preoperative anterior chamber (r = - 0.533; p = 0.001). CONCLUSION: Cataract surgery led to significant widening of the anterior chamber angle and lowering of intraocular pressure. Further investigations are needed to better understand whether anterior chamber width may be a new independent predictive factor for reduction in postoperative intraocular pressure.

[Current possibilities of laser surgery on anterior eye segment]. / Sovremennye vozmozhnosti lazernogo vozdeistviya na struktury perednego segmenta glaza.

The article summarizes the experience of recent years in the development and implementation of novel original laser technologies used in surgery of the anterior segment of the eye. The presented technology of laser activation of scleral hydropermeability (LASH) in glaucoma is based on the effect of enhanced transscleral filtration and has been shown as effective and safe, which was confirmed by the results of a comprehensive clinical and experimental study. Development of another technique was associated with the need to improve the safety of laser interventions in anterior capsule contraction syndrome in pseudophakia, and resulted in a proposition to change the configuration of the anterior lens capsule incision from the usual linear-radial to T-shaped laser anterior capsulorhexis. The proposed technology of laser photomydriasis based on near-infrared radiation of the diode laser (0.810 µm) has shown its effectiveness and gentle nature (absence of atrophy of the iris stroma and post-burn pigmentation) in ectopias and pupil deformity.

Bleb analysis using anterior segment optical coherence tomography after trabeculectomy with amniotic membrane transplantation.

INTRODUCTION: Little has been known about the intrableb structures associated with bleb function after trabeculectomy with amniotic membrane transplantation (AMT). The aim of this study is to analyze the characteristics of intrableb structures using anterior segment optical coherence tomography (AS-OCT) after trabeculectomy with AMT. METHODS: A total of 68 eyes of 68 patients with primary open-angle glaucoma who underwent trabeculectomy with AMT were included. Surgical success was defined as intraocular pressure (IOP) ≤ 18 mmHg and IOP reduction of ≥ 20% without medication on AS-OCT examination. Intrableb parameters, including bleb height, bleb wall thickness, striping layer thickness, bleb wall reflectivity, fluid-filled space score, fluid-filled space height, and microcyst formation were evaluated using AS-OCT. Logistic regression analysis was performed to determine factors associated with IOP control. RESULTS: Of the 68 eyes, 56 eyes were assigned to the success group and 12 eyes to the failure group. In the success group, bleb height (P = 0.009), bleb wall thickness (P = 0.001), striping layer thickness (P = 0.001), fluid-filled space score (P = 0.001), and frequency of microcyst formation (P = 0.001) were greater than those in the failure group. Bleb wall reflectivity was higher in the failure group than in the success group (P < 0.001). In the univariate logistic regression analysis, previous cataract surgery was significantly associated with surgical failure (odds ratio = 5.769, P = 0.032). CONCLUSION: A posteriorly extending fluid-filled space, tall bleb with low reflectivity, and thick striping layer were characteristics of successful filtering blebs after trabeculectomy with AMT.

Evaluation of biometric indicators of anterior segment parameters after ICL implantation by swept-source optical coherence tomography.

BACKGROUND: To evaluate anterior segment structural alterations after implantable collamer lens (ICL) implantation in myopic patients using swept-source quantitative optical coherence tomography (SS-OCT). METHODS: This prospective study included 47 eyes in 24 patients with preoperative spherical equivalent ≥ -3.00 D. Patients underwent ICL implantation at Department of Ophthalmology, Peking University Third Hospital, from May 2021 to December 2022. SS-OCT was used to measure anterior chamber width (ACW), angle opening distance (AOD), angle recess area (ARA), trabecular-iris area (TISA), trabecular-iris angle (TIA), iridotrabecular contact (ITC) area, and ITC Index before ICL implantation surgery and at 1 month follow-up. The correlations among the ITC index, vault, and angle parameters were analysed. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis was used to explore the ability of the vault to identify eyes with suspected angle-closure. RESULTS: At one month following ICL implantation, the ITC area was 0.396 ± 0.37 mm2, and the ITC index is 8.143 ± 5.439%. All angle parameters, except ACW, showed a statistically significant reduction on SS-OCT (P < 0.05). Mean AOD500, AOD750, ARA500, ARA750, TISA500, TISA750, TIA500, and TIA750 values at one month postoperatively decreased by 60.0%, 60.4%, 58.1%, 59.2%, 57.3%, 58.7%, 48.8%, and 50.7%, respectively. The vault was positively correlated with the ITC index and percent change in anterior chamber angle parameters. A vault of > 0.659 mm was found to be optimal for angle-closure suspect with a sensitivity of 85.2% and a specificity of 53.9%. CONCLUSIONS: Anterior chamber angle parameters decreased one month after ICL implantation, and their percentage changes and ITC index correlated with the vault. When the vault is larger than 0.659 mm, it is necessary to be alert to possible closed angle suspicion.
