Abstract:
Background Horizontal sulcus-to-sulcus (STS) and white-to-white diameter are important parameters for designing the proper size of collamer implantable contact lens (ICL).Inappropriate size of ICL may induce the complications postoperatively.Several previous studies compare horizontal STS and white-to-white diameter in normal eyes have been reported,but seldom in high myopic eyes.Objective This study was to investigate the discrepancy of STS diameters in 4 axes and analyze the relationship between horizontal STS diameter and white-towhite diameter in high myopia eyes.Methods The STS diameters in 4 axes (45,90,135 and 180 degrees) and the white-to-white diameters were measured in 48 eyes of 26 high myopia patients using the 50 MHz ultrasound biomicroscopy (UBM),the Orbscan-Ⅱ topography system,and the IOL Master,respectively.The mean spherical was (-12.93±3.87) diopters (D) (-8 to-20 D).Statistical evaluation was performed using the one-way ANOVA for comparison of measurement.The agreement of three devices was assessed using the Bland and Altman method.Results The mean STS diameter at 45,90,135 and 180 degrees was (12.06±0.50) mm,(12.27±0.50)mm,(12.03±0.46) mm and (11.84±0.47)mm,respectively.The 90 degree STS was significantly larger than other STS diameters (all at P＜0.05).The 180 degrees STS was significantly shorter than other STS diameters (all at P＜0.05).However,there was no significant difference between 45 degree STS and 135 degree STS (P=0.817).The mean WTW was (11.56±0.40) mm with Orbscan Ⅱ z topography system and (11.98±0.41) mm with IOLMaster.The WTW measured with Orbscan Ⅱ z was significantly shorter than the 180 degrees STS (t =-4.384,P =0.000).The WTW measured with IOLMaster was significantly larger than the 180 degrees STS (t =2.368,P =0.000).Bland-Altman analysis showed not very well agreement for measurements of WTW,STS between Orbscan Ⅱz and UBM,IOLMaster and UBM,Orbscan Ⅱ z and IOLMaster,the width of 95％ confidence interval (CI) were-0.57 to 1.12 mm,-0.96 to 0.67 mm,-0.73 to-0.13 mm,respectively.Conclusions The STS diameters in 4 different axes are not identical with each other in high myopia eyes.The longest STS is in the vertical meridian,the shortest STS is in the horizontal meridian.The WTW diameter measured with both Orbscan Ⅱ z and IOLMaster are not precise for calculating the horizontal STS in high myopia eyes.Three instruments cannot be interchanged for calculating the size of ICL.
