Comparison of anterior chamber depth in healthy myopic Thai eye using orbscan and ultrasound

Comparison of anterior chamber depth in healthy myopic Thai eye using orbscan and ultrasound

Objectives: To compare the anterior chamber depth (ACD) using ultrasonic and optical measurements. Material and Method: In this prospective study, ultrasound and optical (Orbscan) devices were employed to measure ACD in 42 eyes of 21 myopic volunteers. ACD values were compared using the paired-sampl...

Objectives: To compare the anterior chamber depth (ACD) using ultrasonic and optical measurements. Material and Method: In this prospective study, ultrasound and optical (Orbscan) devices were employed to measure ACD in 42 eyes of 21 myopic volunteers. ACD values were compared using the paired-sample Student t test. The correlation of ACD values obtained from two groups was assessed by linear regression analysis. Results: The difference of mean ACD values between the ultrasound (3.02 ± 0.37 mm) and Orbscan (3.56 ± 0.42 mm) method was statistically significant difference (p < 0.0001). Conclusion: The optical measurement of ACD in healthy myopic Thai eyes is, on average, 0.54 mm greater than ultrasonic measurement; however, both methods posses a significant linear correlation. 2014-08-30T02:00:10Z 2014-08-30T02:00:10Z 2005 Article 01252208 16519380 JMTHB http://www.scopus.com/inward/record.url?eid=2-s2.0-30844440784&partnerID=40&md5=711e2fc6c09c91b19ff04a427934f70e http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/16519380 http://cmuir.cmu.ac.th/handle/6653943832/1832 English
