RESUMO

AIM: To compare the repeatability/reproducibility of measurement by high-resolution Placido disk-based topography with that of a high-resolution rotating Scheimpflug camera and assess the agreement between the two instruments in measuring corneal power in eyes with keratoconus and post-laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK). METHODS: One eye each of 36 keratoconic patients and 20 subjects who had undergone LASIK was included in this prospective observational study. Two independent examiners worked in a random order to take three measurements of each eye with both instruments. Four parameters were measured on the anterior cornea: steep keratometry (Ks), flat keratometry (Kf), mean keratometry (Km), and astigmatism (Ks-Kf). Intra-examiner repeatability and inter-examiner reproducibility were evaluated by calculating the within-subject standard deviation (Sw) the coefficient of repeatability (R), the coefficient of variation (CoV), and the intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC). Agreement between instruments was tested with the Bland-Altman method by calculating the 95% limits of agreement (95% LoA). RESULTS: In keratoconic eyes, the intra-examiner and inter-examiner ICC were >0.95. As compared with measurement by high-resolution Placido disk-based topography, the intra-examiner R of the high-resolution rotating Scheimpflug camera was lower for Kf (0.32 vs 0.88), Ks (0.61 vs 0.88), and Km (0.32 vs 0.84) but higher for Ks-Kf (0.70 vs 0.57). Inter-examiner R values were lower for all parameters measured using the high-resolution rotating Scheimpflug camera. The 95% LoA were -1.28 to +0.55 for Kf, -1.36 to +0.99 for Ks, -1.08 to +0.50 for Km, and -1.11 to +1.48 for Ks-Kf. In the post-LASIK eyes, the intra-examiner and inter-examiner ICC were >0.87 for all parameters. The intra-examiner and inter-examiner R were lower for all parameters measured using the high-resolution rotating Scheimpflug camera. The intra-examiner R was 0.17 vs 0.88 for Kf, 0.21 vs 0.88 for Ks, 0.17 vs 0.86 for Km, and 0.28 vs 0.33 for Ks-Kf. The inter-examiner R was 0.09 vs 0.64 for Kf, 0.15 vs 0.56 for Ks, 0.09 vs 0.59 for Km, and 0.18 vs 0.23 for Ks-Kf. The 95% LoA were -0.54 to +0.58 for Kf, -0.51 to +0.53 for Ks and Km, and -0.28 to +0.27 for Ks-Kf. CONCLUSION: As compared with Placido disk-based topography, the high-resolution rotating Scheimpflug camera provides more repeatable and reproducible measurements of Ks, Kf and Ks in keratoconic and post-LASIK eyes. Agreement between instruments is fair in keratoconus and very good in post-LASIK eyes.

RESUMO

PURPOSE: To compare corneal astigmatism derived from total corneal refractive power (CATCRP), a ray-tracing method, with that derived from simulated keratometry (CASimK), an anterior surface-based method, in candidates for toric intraocular lens (IOL) implantation. DESIGN: Reliability analysis. METHODS: In 1 eye of 200 consecutive patients (mean age 71 ± 9 years) with cataract, a Pentacam HR (Oculus) was used to measure CATCRP and CASimK. Eyes with CATCRP >1 diopter (D) were defined as candidates for toric IOL implantation. The estimation difference between CATCRP and CASimK was analyzed by calculating the arithmetic, absolute, and vector differences between the 2 methods. RESULTS: Seventy-seven candidates were identified. In the candidates, CASimK was <1 D in 22% of cases and underestimated the astigmatism magnitude, on average, by -0.15 ± 0.34 D. The mean absolute and vector difference between CATCRP and CASimK was 0.31 ± 0.29 D and 0.30 ± 0.29 D × 180 degrees, respectively. The absolute and vector differences between the 2 methods were >0.50 D in 21 of 77 (27.2%) and 25 of 77 (32.5%) eyes, respectively; the proportions were significantly (P < .001) higher than in the eyes with CATCRP ≤1 D (0.8% and 9.8%, respectively). The difference in steep meridian alignment between CATCRP and CASimK was >5 degrees in 22.1% and >10 degrees in 2.6% of cases. CONCLUSION: The difference between CATCRP and CASimK, as calculated by Pentacam HR, is greater in candidates for toric IOL implantation than in the general population. That difference considerably influences the candidate and toric IOL power selection in a large proportion of cases.
