Abstract:
AIM:To study the relationship between ocular parameters and lens thickness(LT)in myopic patients with different anterior chamber depth(ACD).METHODS:Cross-sectional study. A total of 118 myopic subjects(236 eyes)underwent posterior chamber phakic implantable collamer lens(Phakic-ICL)implantation in the refractive department of our hospital from May 2022 to May 2024 were selected. Ocular parameters examined before surgery included uncorrected visual acuity(UCVA), subjective refraction, best corrected visual acuity(BCVA), contactless intraocular pressure(IOP), ACD, white-to-white(WTW), horizontal sulcus-to-sulcus(STSH), vertical sulcus-to-sulcus(STSV), and LT. ACD without corneal thickness was measured by Pentacam, and subjects were divided into three groups: shallow anterior chamber group(2.8 mm≤ACD≤3.2 mm), middle anterior chamber group(3.2 mm3.4 mm). The differences in WTW, STSH, STSV, and LT among groups were compared, and the correlation between the above parameters under different ACD groups was analyzed, as well as the multiple linear regression analysis was used to research LT with the above ocular parameters.RESULTS:There was no statistically significant difference in LT between the middle ACD group and the deep ACD group(P=1.00), while there were statistically significant differences in LT between shallow and middle ACD groups(P<0.0167); there were statistical significant differences in WTW, STSH and STSV among different ACD groups(F=226.36, 15.58, 11.92, all P<0.01), but the differences were varied after pairwise comparison. There was a weak negative correlation between LT and ACD only in the shallow ACD group and overall data of patients(r=-0.231, P<0.05; r=-0.222, P<0.01). There was no correlation in LT and ocular parameters between the middle ACD group and deep ACD group(all P>0.05); moderate correlations were discovered among WTW, STSH and STSV in different ACD groups and overall data(all P<0.01); in the overall data of patients, ACD had weak to low correlations with WTW, STSH, STSV and LT(all P<0.01). Through multiple linear regression analysis, it was found that only the shallow ACD group and the overall data had statistically significant independent variables that were linearly correlated with LT, and their equations were as follows: LTS=5.492-0.167×WTW+0.267×STSV-0.448×ACD; LTT=3.884-0.303×ACD, the corrected R2 of equations showed low values, revealed 0.141 and 0.056, respectively.CONCLUSION:Among different ACD groups, there was no correlation or linear relationship between LT and WTW, STSH and STSV; in the shallow ACD group and the overall data, LT had a weak negative correlation with ACD, and its corrected R2 was low. Therefore, there is no linear relationship between LT and ocular diameter parameters under different ACD.
