Background Laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) is widely applicated to correct the refractive error in ophthalmology nowadays.However,the morphology and structure changes of anterior eye segment caused by the ablation of corneal stroma and suction of negative pressure during surgery should be concerned.Objective This study was to assess the changes of the anterior eye segment parameters and the factors influencing these parameters after LASIK.Methods The clinical data of 59 eyes of 31 patients who received LASIK in Chongqing Medal Eye Institute during May 2012 to July 2013 were retrospectively analyzed.The mean age of the patients was (24.52±8.41) years and the spherical equivalent was (-5.96±3.75) D.The central anterior chamber angle (ACA),anterior chamber volume (ACV),anterior chamber depth (ACD) were measured with Sirius Scheimpflug tomography,and lens thickness (LT) was measured by A-scan before operation and 1,3,6 months after operation.The anterior chamber was divided into anterior and posterior parts by the plane of cornea 4 mm radius area.The ACD of cornea 4 mm radius area sagittal height section (Sag4mm ACD) (the height from posterior corneal vertex to corneal radius of 4 mm plane) and residual ACD (RACD) (the height from corneal radius of 4 mm plane to the anterior lens surface) were computed.The association between ACD and RACD or LT were assessed by Pearson correlation analysis.Results The ACA,ACV,ACD,RACD and LT were significantly different among various time points before and after LASIK (F =8.319,P＜0.05;F =11.596,P＜0.05;F =24.045,P＜0.01;F =16.087,P＜0.05;F =15.333,P＜0.01),and the ACA,ACV,ACD and RACD were significantly decreased 1-6 months after LASIK than those before LASIK (all at P＜0.05).There were no significant differences in the Sag4 mm ACD between pre-and postLASIK (all at P＞0.05).The LT was significantly increased after surgery in comparison with that before surgery (P＜0.01).The positive correlations were found between RACD and ACD before LASIK and in 1,3,6 months after LASIK (r =0.976,0.824,0.724,0.938,all at P＜0.05) and negative correlation between LT and ACD in 3 and 6 months after LASIK (r=-0.344,P＜0.01;r =-0.363,P＜0.01).Conclusions The ACD decrease following LASIK mainly in the sector from the plane of cornea 4 mm radius area to lens surface.The change of ACD might be associated with forward shifting of anterior lens surface caused by enhanced accommodation.

Objective:To survey the application of an intelligent consultation system for common eye diseases and evaluate its applicational effectiveness on an internet hospital platform.Methods:A cross-sectional study was performed in Zhongshan Ophthalmic Centre of Sun Yat-sen University.Natural language processing technology was applied to develop the intelligent consultation system for common eye diseases.Its efficiency and quality were evaluated.The survey data were collected from February 1 to 29, 2020 to analyze the demographic information, consultation time, consultation category, consultation content, service satisfaction.This study protocal was approved by an Ethic Committee of Zhongshan Ophthalmic Centre of Sun Yat-sen University(2020KYPJ095).Results:The intelligent consultation system for common eye diseases was developed and successfully deployed in Internet Hospital of Zhongshan Ophthalmic Center.The repeatability and accuracy of the intelligent consultation system were 100.0% and 99.8%, respectively.During February 1 to 29, 2020, the intelligent consultation system served 6 462 patients, including 3 082 males(47.7%) and 3 380 females(52.3%). The average age of patients was 32.3 years old.Total of 1 135(17.6%) patients used the intelligent guidance consultation, and 5 375(82.4%) patients used the intelligent outpatient consultation.The intelligence consultation system was applied by 223 patients per day with a maximum of 74 patients per hour.The survey showed that 25.6% and 36.4% of the patients felt very satisfied and relatively satisfied with the efficiency of the intelligent consultation service, respectively; 24.3% and 37.8% of the patients were very satisfied and relatively satisfied with the quality of the intelligent consultation service, respectively.Conclusions:Intelligent consultation system for common eye diseases can meet the needs of patients because of its high repeatability and accuracy.Patients are satisfied with the service efficiency and quality of the intelligent consultation system, which avoids the risk of cross infection and releases the burden of medical staff.
