Article Abstract
Purpose: To compare the corneal morphology measurements of keratoconus using Pentacam, Sirius, and CASIA2.
Methods: Patients diagnosed with keratoconus at Fudan Eye and ENT Hospital (January to November, 2022) were included. Corneal refraction, astigmatism, thickness, and elevation parameters were measured using Pentacam, Sirius, and CASIA2. The measurement differences, agreement, and the sensitivity and specificity of each instrument for diagnosing keratoconus was evaluated. P < 0.05 was considered statistically significant.
Results: A total of 61 keratoconus eyes and 48 healthy myopic eyes were included. The steepest and flattest keratometry measured using Sirius were the highest (all p < 0.05). Pentacam measured the highest thinnest corneal thickness values in maximun keratometry >48D keratoconus paticipants (all p < 0.05). When the best fit sphere was aligned, the anterior and posterior elevations at thinnest points measured using Sirius were the highest in keratoconus group and the lowest in control group (all p < 0.05). Corneal refractive power measurements significantly differed among three instruments (p < 0.0001). The intraclass correlation coefficient results demonstrated excellent agreement in total corneal refractive power (TCRP), mean keratometry of the corneal front and posterior surface (fKm and pKm) measurements among control, corneal crosslinking treated, and untreated keratoconus groups. In the control group, the agreement limits for TCRP, fKm, and pKm were narrower than those in keratoconus. In keratoconus group, Pentacam and CASIA2 showed the best consistency in the measurement of TCRP and fKm, whereas Pentacam and Sirius showed the best consistency in the measurement of pKm. Sensitivities for diagnosing keratoconus ranked from high to low: Pentacam, CASIA2, Sirius.
Conclusion: Comprehensive evaluation of anterior and posterior corneal parameters is crucial for keratoconus screening. Pentacam, Sirius, and CASIA2 showed limited agreement in keratoconus refractive parameters and are not interchangeable in keratoconus management. Sirius yielded higher corneal anterior keratometry and posterior elevation values, while Pentacam demonstrated the highest diagnostic sensitivity for keratoconus.

Purpose: To assess the agreement of the Lenstar LS900 (Haag-Streit AG), Sirius (CSO), and Pentacam HR (Oculus Optikgeräte GmbH) devices in terms of anterior chamber depth (ACD), flat (K1) and steep (K2) axis keratometry, white-to-white corneal diameter (WTW), and pupil diameter (PD) measurements in healthy eyes and keratoconus cases.
Methods: Measurements were obtained using the Lenstar LS900, Sirius, and Pentacam HR by an experienced technician who was blinded to the results from each modality. The agreement between the devices was evaluated with a Bland-Altman analysis.

Purpose: To compare the corneal morphology measurements of keratoconus using Pentacam, Sirius, and CASIA2.
Methods: Patients diagnosed with keratoconus at Fudan Eye and ENT Hospital (January to November, 2022) were included. Corneal refraction, astigmatism, thickness, and elevation parameters were measured using Pentacam, Sirius, and CASIA2.
Purpose: To evaluate the repeatability of angle kappa measurements obtained from the Pentacam (Oculus Optikgeräte GmbH), Sirius (Costruzione Strumenti Oftalmici), and Keratron Scout (BVI), and to assess the agreement with those obtained from the Amaris 750S (SCHWIND eye-tech-solutions).
Methods: This study included 110 patients scheduled to undergo transepithelial photorefractive keratectomy or femtosecond laser-assisted laser in situ keratomileusis. Before surgery, each patient underwent angle kappa measurement using three instruments: Pentacam, Sirius, and Keratron.

Managing post-keratoplasty astigmatism remains challenging. Even though graft viability is the main concern in keratoplasty, astigmatism might hinder vision recovery following a successful corneal transplant. Photorefractive keratectomy (PRK) and topography-guided PRK may be options for correcting refractive errors in patients who underwent keratoplasty.

Purpose: This study aims to compare and evaluate the correlation and agreement among three distinct anterior segment analysis systems in measuring anterior chamber depth (ACD) in healthy myopic individuals.
Methods: Myopic patients who underwent preoperative assessments at our hospital's refractive surgery department from January 2021 to December 2023 were included in this investigation. ACD was measured using three anterior segment analysis systems: Pentacam, Sirius, and IOLMaster 700.
