Purpose: To investigate refractive prediction accuracy with the OA-2000 (Tomey), Anterion (Heidelberg Engineering), and IOLMaster 500 (Carl Zeiss Meditec AG) in patients with cataract.
Methods: Patients with cataract referred for phacoemulsification were enrolled and scanned with the OA-2000, Anterion, and IOLMaster 500 in random order. The success rate of axial length (AL) measurements per device was calculated and a chi-square test was used to identify the differences in acquisition rate between the three devices. The Bland-Altman method was used to appraise the agreement of biometric parameters between the three devices. Four different formulas (Barrett Universal II [BUII], Haigis, Holladay 1, and SRK/T) were included in the study. The parameters of refractive prediction accuracy comprised predictive error (PE), absolute PE (AE), and percentages of eyes with a PE within ±0.50, ±0.75, and ±1.00 diopters (D).
Results: The acquisition rates of AL measurements with the OA-2000 and Anterion were 97.35% and 94.70%, respectively (chi-square = 3.82, > .05). A significantly lower acquisition rate of 84.82% was obtained with the IOLMaster 500 compared with the other two devices ( < .05). Bland-Altman analysis identified good agreement between the three biometers with narrow 95% limits of agreement for flat and steep keratometry (K1 and K2), anterior chamber depth (ACD), and AL. For PE, only the differences between the Anterion and IOLMaster 500 with the Barrett UII and Haigis formulas were statistically significant ( < .05). The three devices revealed no statistically significant differences in MAE, MedAE, and the proportion of eyes with a PE within ±0.50, ±0.75, and ±1.00 D ( > .05).
Conclusions: The OA-2000 and Anterion showed a similarly higher acquisition rate of AL measurements than the IOLMaster 500 in patients with cataract. Good agreement for K1, K2, ACD, and AL was found between the three biometers. Regarding refractive prediction accuracy, the Anterion did not significantly outperform both the OA-2000 and IOLMaster 500. .

: Swept-Source Optical Coherence Tomography (SS-OCT) is a novel optical biometry technology with limited published data on its reliability compared to the gold standard, partial coherence interferometry (PCI). This study aims to assess the agreement between an SS-OCT biometer (Argos) and a PCI device (IOLMaster 500) in terms of biometry values, intraocular lens (IOL) power calculation and mean prediction error (ME). : In this prospective comparative study, axial length (AL), anterior chamber depth (ACD), flat (K1), steep (K2) and mean (Km) keratometry values, astigmatism power, J0, and J45 vector components, white-to-white distance (WTW), and IOL power calculations for nine IOL models using four formulas were compared in cataract patients.

Purpose: This study aimed to compare a new swept-source biometer to the gold standard B-mode ultrasound biometer for measuring the axial length (AL) when standard optical biometers failed due to cataract density.
Methods: Patients with advanced cataracts whose AL could not be measured using optical biometers available in our clinics, including the Lenstar LS-900 and IOLMaster 500 and 700, were included. The AL, anterior chamber depth (ACD), and lens thickness (LT) were measured using a new swept-source biometer (SSB) (Argos, Alcon) and B-mode ultrasound.

Purpose: This study aimed to compare the anterior chamber depth (ACD), anterior chamber volume (ACV), and iridocorneal angle (ICA) of the eyes of patients with non-arteritic anterior ischemic optic neuropathy (NAION) and normal eyes.
Methods: In this cross-sectional study, 28 patients with NAION who were admitted to our institution were examined. Central corneal thickness (CCT), ACV, ACD, and ICA of all eyes were measured using corneal topography (Sirius, CSO, Italy).

Purpose: To describe the current available technical resources, preferences and common practices in biometry and intraocular lens (IOL) calculation in Spain.
Methods: Online survey distributed through two Spanish scientific societies' communication channels. Twenty-eight questions were included, including two on affiliation, five on technical means and 21 on routine practice in biometry and IOL calculation.
