The determination of sulcus-to-sulcus measurements has been challenging due to the limitations of current approaches. Ultrasound methods are highly operator-dependent and require extensive training, while traditional optical devices cannot visualize structures posterior to the iris. However, modern optical anterior segment coherence tomography (AS-OCT) devices are changing this paradigm by identifying some anatomical landmarks posterior to the iris. This study evaluates the reproducibility of optical sulcus measurements in the context of sizing a novel accommodative intraocular lens (IOL). Preoperative OCT scans of patients scheduled for cataract surgery were analyzed regarding the dimensions of the ciliary sulcus using a custom scan method with a clinically available anterior segment optical coherence tomographer. Measurements were compared between two different readers, and various derived parameters were compared. The measurements by both readers were highly correlated (R2 > 0.96), and their agreement was excellent (mean difference 0.02 mm with 95% limits of agreement from −0.11 to 0.15 mm). In contrast, the sulcus diameter measurement did not agree well with automatically calculated values, such as the anterior chamber width or white-to-white. This leads to the conclusion that modern swept-source AS-OCT measurements of the ciliary sulcus dimensions are feasible, reproducible, and may be a clinically useful tool. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
