Abstract:
The biometric analysis of the normal aged eye with photodocumented method (using EAS-lOOO Scheimpflug camera) was performed in 109 eyes. We measured anterior chamber depth, corneal thickness, corneal radius, lens thickness and biometric lens analysis according to the age. The lens thickness increased annually (O.O1mm) with age and the anterior chamber depth reversely decreased. The biometric analysis can provide normal critariae values about the effect of anticatar acto us drugs in long-term follow up study and the relationships between normal aged lens and highly risk groups in the cataract prevalence study.
