Abstract
AIM:To measure preoperative corneal curvature in elderly cataract patients using five different systems,including Keratograph 5M,Pentacam,KR.800 autorefractor,IOL Master,and KR-1W wavefront aberrometer,analyze its discrepancy and consistency,and provide a reference for accurate intraocular lens(IOL)power calculation in elderly patients before cataract surgery.
METHODS:This prospective study included 53 elderly cataract in-patients(90 eyes)who were admitted to our ophthalmology department between October 2022 and November 2024.The corneal curvature values(K1,K2)of postoperative eyes were measured using Keratograph 5M,Pentacam,KR.800,IOL Master,and KR-1W,and the mean keratometry(Km)was calculated.
RESULTS:Statistically significant differences were observed in K1,K2,and Km values between Keratograph 5M and Pentacam,as well as between Keratograph 5M and IOL Master(all P＜0.05),whereas no significant differences were found in K1,K2 and Km between Keratograph 5M and KR.800 or KR-1W(all P＞0.05).Pearson correlation analysis showed a certain correlation of K1,K2 and Km obtained from Keratograph 5M with those from KR.800,Pentacam,IOL Master,and KR-1W(r=0.913-0.987,all P＜0.001).Bland-Altman scatter plots demonstrated good consistency between Keratograph 5M and KR.800 or KR-1W,while its consistency with Pentacam and IOL Master was relatively poor.
CONCLUSION:As an ocular surface analyzer,Keratograph 5M offers advantages such as simplicity,rapid measurement,strong repeatability,and low patient cooperation requirements.In elderly patients,corneal curvature measurements obtained by Keratograph 5M demonstrated good consistency with those from KR.800 and KR-1W,making them interchangeable based on individual conditions and cooperation levels of patients.However,its consistency with Pentacam and IOL Master was relatively poor;therefore,clinical practical situation should be considered when selecting such measurement devices.关键词
