Abstract:
Objective To investigate the characteristics of lens diameter in different axial positions and their rela-tionship with ocular biometric parameters using swept-source optical coherence tomography.Methods A total of 180 pa-tients(180 eyes)with age-related cataract who were scheduled for phacoemulsification combined with intraocular lens im-plantation from July to December 2023 were included,and the operated eyes were used as the observation eyes.The lens diameter data of patients were obtained by scanning at 16 axial positions using the swept-source optical coherence tomo-graphy device CASIA2.The patients were divided into three groups according to the scanning axial positions of the maxi-mum and minimum lens diameters:horizontal group,oblique group,and vertical group.The distribution differences of the maximum and minimum lens diameters among the three groups were compared.Ocular biometric parameters,including ax-ial length(AL),white-to-white distance,anterior chamber depth(ACD),and lens thickness(LT),were measured using the IOL Master 700.Correlation analysis was used to assess the relationship between lens diameter and age,ocular biomet-ric parameters.Multiple linear regression analysis was used to evaluate the impact of age and ocular biometric parameters on lens diameter.Results The maximum lens diameter[10.13(9.20,10.80)mm]was significantly larger than the min-imum lens diameter[9.26(8.21,9.91)mm],with a statistically significant difference(Z=-7.387,P<0.001).There were no statistically significant differences in the maximum and minimum lens diameters among the three groups(H=1.575,P=0.455;H=0.927,P=0.629).The distribution difference of the maximum lens diameters between the oblique group and the horizontal group was statistically significant(x2=6.035,P=0.014);differences in other group comparisons were not statistically significant(all P>0.022).The proportion of the maximum lens diameter occurring in the oblique group(55.2%)was significantly higher than that in the horizontal group(38.0%).The maximum lens diameter was more commonly found in the oblique group.The lens diameter was positively correlated with age and LT(rs=0.217,P<0.05;rs=0.538,P<0.001),and negatively correlated with ACD(rs=-0.379,P<0.001).Comparison of standardized regres-sion coefficients(β')showed that LT had the greatest impact on lens diameter,followed by AL;both LT and AL had a sig-nificant positive impact on lens diameter(β'=0.483,P<0.001;β'=0.314,P<0.001).Conclusion The distribution frequency of the maximum lens diameter in the oblique group(30°-60° and 120°-150°)was significantly higher than that in the horizontal group.There was a positive correlation between lens diameter and age and LT,and a negative correlation between lens diameter and ACD.Among all the factors affecting lens diameter,LT and AL are the most critical factors,with LT having a more significant impact on lens diameter than AL.
