Axial length measurement techniques in pediatric eyes with cataract.
Globe axial length (AL) in children is commonly measured using either contact or immersion technique. Office measurement of AL can be difficult in young children and infants and must often be done under anesthesia in an eye that is unable to cooperate with precise fixation and centration. Contact A-scan measurements yield shorter AL, on average, than immersion A-scan measurements in pediatric e...
متن کاملAxial Length Measurement Failure Rates with the IOLMaster and Lenstar LS 900 in Eyes with Cataract
PURPOSE To evaluate axial length (AL) measurement failure rate with the IOLMaster (Carl Zeiss AG, Germany) and Lenstar LS 900 (Haag-Streit AG, Switzerland) in eyes with cataract. METHODS Two hundred and ninety-six eyes of 170 patients with cataract were enrolled. Cataract type and severity were graded using the Lens Opacities Classification System III (LOCS III) and AL measurements were attem...
متن کاملMeasurement of the axial length of cataract eyes by laser Doppler interferometry.
PURPOSE To examine the applicability of the recently developed laser Doppler interferometry technique for measuring the axial length of cataract eyes in a realistic clinical situation. To determine the performance of the instrument as a function of cataract grade. To compare the results to those of ultrasound methods. METHODS A total of 196 cataract eyes of 100 patients were examined. The axi...
متن کاملAxial length in eyes with bilateral pediatric cataract at tertiary eye care center in Nepal: a preliminary report.
The aim of the study was to determine the average axial length reading of the bilateral pediatric cataract undergoing cataract surgery. Pre-operative axial length measurement was done in 80 children below 15 years who had bilateral pediatric cataract. Axial length measurement was done in 56 fellow eyes. The axial length was measured under general anesthesia with the Accutome A-scan. The mean ag...
متن کاملKeratometry in pediatric eyes with cataract.
OBJECTIVES To report the keratometry data of pediatric cataractous eyes (randomly selected single eye of bilateral cases; cataractous eye of unilateral cases) and to compare the keratometry data of the unilateral cataractous eye with the corresponding noncataractous fellow eye. METHODS Retrospective review of preoperative data of patients who had undergone cataract surgery before 18 years of ...
