Comparison of corneal measurements in keratoconus eyes with two swept-source-optical coherence tomography devices and a Scheimpflug device.
Graefe's Archive for Clinical and Experimental Ophthalmology 2023 September 10
PURPOSE: To assess the feasibility and reliability of biometric measurements taken with the Eyestar 900 device in keratoconus eyes in comparison with those taken with the Pentacam HR and IOLMaster 700.
METHODS: Seventy-five eyes of 75 patients with keratoconus were included. The central corneal thickness (CCT), thinnest point of corneal thickness (TCT), axial length (AL), flat (K1) and steep (K2) anterior and posterior (Kp1, Kp2) keratometry, maximal keratometry (KMax) and anterior chamber depth (ACD) were compared between the Eyestar 900, Pentacam HR and IOLMaster 700. Reliability parameters such as the coefficient of variation (CoV) and intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) were calculated. Pearson's r was determined to assess the correlation between devices.
RESULTS: A high repeatability (CoV < 1%) and intraclass correlation (ICC > 0.9) was found for all devices, led by AL, TCT, K1 and K2 (CoV 0.01-0.36%; ICC 0.994-1.00). The largest correlation between devices was found for AL (Eyestar vs. IOLMaster, r = 1.0), K1 (Eyestar vs. IOLMaster, r = 0.997) and ACD (Eyestar vs. IOLMaster, r = 0.995; Pentacam vs. IOLMaster, r = 0.987; Eyestar vs. Pentacam, r = 0.983), but there were significant differences in measured values between devices (p < 0.001), whereas the correlation was only slightly lower (r = 0.947 to 0.994) for KMax, CCT, TCT, K2, Kp1 and Kp2.
CONCLUSION: Keratometric and axial length measurements with the Eyestar 900 were feasible and revealed a high repeatability and a good correlation to the other devices in eyes with keratoconus.
