Abstract

PURPOSE: To determine agreement between partial coherence interferometry (PCI) and anterior segment optical coherence tomography (AS-OCT) measurements of anterior chamber depth (ACD) and axial intraocular lens (IOL) movement in eyes with an accommodating IOL. SETTING: Department of Ophthalmology, St. Thomas' Hospital, London, United Kingdom. METHODS: In this prospective pilot study of cataract patients, the central ACD was measured by PCI (ACMaster) and AS-OCT (Visante) 6 months after unilateral OPAL-A accommodating IOL implantation. Measurements were performed with a distance target and 1.00 diopter (D) and 2.00 D accommodative targets and after administration of topical pilocarpine 4%. Agreement between PCI and AS-OCT ACD measurements and IOL movement was calculated. RESULTS: Measurements were obtained in 18 patients. There was a consistent and statistically significant bias toward shallower ACD measurements with AS-OCT than with PCI, with the bias most pronounced after pilocarpine (mean 4.117 mm +/- 0.291 [SD] versus 4.054 +/- 0.287 mm; bias 0.063 mm; P
