Postoperative change in lateral rectus muscle insertion measured by anterior segment optical coherence tomography.

ABSTRACT: AimsThe aims of this study were to investigate the longitudinal change in lateral rectus (LR) muscle insertion after recession surgery, and to evaluate a relationship between insertion distance and postoperative amount of deviation.MethodsWe recruited 31 patients who underwent primary LR recession surgery with normal anterior segment structures. An AS-OCT scan of the LR muscle was performed at every visit. Data on sex, age, degree of deviation (prism diopter), and spur-LR insertion distance using AS-OCT were collected at preoperatively and postoperative months 1, 3, and 6. Spur-LR insertion was defined as the shortest distance between the insertion of the LR muscle and the scleral spur was measured using the caliper function in the AS-OCT software.ResultsThe mean distance of spur-LR insertion measured with AS-OCT was 5.5±0.7?mm preoperatively, and 11.1±0.9?mm at 1 month, 11.5±0.8?mm at 3 months, and 11.0±0.7?mm at 6 months postoperatively. There were significant differences in spur-LR insertion between postoperative 1 and 3 months, and between 3 and 6 months (generalized estimating equation, all P<0.001). The overall spur-LR insertion measurement has a significantly negative correlation with postoperative amount of deviation (Pearson's correlation, P=0.035, r=-0.218).ConclusionsAS-OCT is a useful instrument for understanding postoperative changes in EOM after tissue swelling subsides.

Project description:Fuchs uveitis (FU) is a chronic and often unilateral ocular inflammation and characteristic iris atrophic changes, other than heterochromia, are common in FU and are key to the correct diagnosis in many cases. With the advent of anterior segment optical coherence tomography (AS-OCT), some investigators attempted to quantitatively study these atrophic changes; mostly by introducing various methods to measure iris thickness in AS-OCT images. We aimed to present an automated method in an observational case series to measure the smoothness index (SI) of the iris surface in AS-OCT images. The ratio of the length of the straight line connecting the most peripheral and central points of the anterior iris border (in nasal and temporal sides) to the actual length of this border on AS-OCT images, was defined as SI. In a uveitis referral center, twenty-two eyes of 11 patients with unilateral Fuchs uveitis (FU) (7 female) and 22 eyes of 11 healthy control subjects underwent AS-OCT imaging. Image J and a newly developed MATLAB algorithm were used for manual and automated SI measurements, respectively. Agreement between manual and automated measurements was evaluated with Bland-Altman analysis and interclass correlation coefficient. The inter-eye difference of SI was compared between the FU group and the control group. Automated mean overall SI was 0.868 ± 0.037 and 0.840 ± 0.039 in FU and healthy fellow eyes, respectively (estimated mean difference = - 0.028, 95% CI [- 0.038, - 0.018], p < 0.001). Bland- Altman plots showed good agreement between two methods in both healthy and FU eyes. The interclass correlation coefficient between the manual and automated measurements in the FU and healthy fellow eyes was 0.958 and 0.964, respectively. The inter-eye difference of overall SI was 0.029 ± 0.015 and 0.012 ± 0.008 in FU group and control group, respectively (p = 0.01). We concluded that the automated algorithm can rapidly and conveniently measure SI with results comparable to the manual method.

Project description:PurposeTo measure by ultralong scan depth optical coherence tomography (UL-OCT) dimensional changes in the anterior segment of human eyes during accommodation.DesignEvaluation of diagnostic test or technology.ParticipantsForty-one right eyes of healthy subjects with a mean age of 34 years (range, 22-41 years) and a mean refraction of -2.5 ± 2.6 diopters were imaged in 2 repeated measurements at minimal and maximal accommodations.MethodsA specially adapted and designed UL-OCT instrument was used to image from the front surface of the cornea to the back surface of the crystalline lens. Custom software corrected the optical distortion of the images and yielded the biometric measurements. The coefficient of repeatability and the intraclass correlation coefficient were calculated to evaluate the repeatability and reliability.Main outcome measuresAnterior segment parameters and associated repeatability and reliability upon accommodation. The dimensional results included central corneal thickness (CCT), anterior chamber depth and width (ACD, ACW), pupil diameter (PD), lens thickness (LT), anterior segment length (ASL = ACD + LT), lens central position (LCP = ACD + 1/2LT), and horizontal radii of the lens anterior and posterior surface curvatures (LAC, LPC).ResultsRepeated measurements of each variable within each accommodative state did not differ significantly (P>0.05). The coefficients of repeatability (CORs) and intraclass correlation coefficients for CCT, ACW, ACD, LT, LCP, and ASL were excellent (1.2%- 3.59% and 0.998-0.877, respectively). They were higher for PD (18.90%-21.63% and 0.880-0.874, respectively) and moderate for LAC and LPC (34.86%-42.72% and 0.669-0.251, respectively) in the 2 accommodative states. Compared with minimal accommodation, PD, ACD, LAC, LPC, and LCP decreased and LT and ASL increased significantly at maximal accommodation (P<0.05), whereas CCT and ACW did not change (P>0.05).ConclusionsThe UL-OCT measured changes in anterior segment dimensions during accommodation with good repeatability and reliability. During accommodation, the back surface of the lens became steeper as the lens moved forward.Financial disclosure(s)The authors have no proprietary or commercial interest in any of the materials discussed in this article.
