Characteristics of Corneal Higher-Order Aberrations in Congenital Ectopia Lentis Patients.


ABSTRACT:

Purpose

The purpose of this study was to investigate the characteristics of corneal higher-order aberrations (HOAs) in patients with congenital ectopia lentis (CEL).

Methods

Clinical characteristics and HOAs of 60 patients with CEL and 75 healthy controls at Zhongshan Ophthalmic Center in China were retrospectively analyzed. The Q value and the corneal HOAs in the CEL group and the controls were measured by using Pentacam and compared value between the CEL and control groups. The correlation between HOAs and age was investigated using the Pearson correlation analysis.

Results

The Q value of anterior corneal surface in the CEL group was larger than that in the controls (-0.41 ± 0.17 vs. -0.32 ± 0.13, P = 0.001); the total corneal horizontal coma in the CEL group were larger than that in the controls (0.24 ± 0.18 vs. -0.05 ± 0.14, P < 0.001); both the primary spherical aberrations of the anterior and total corneal surface were lower in the CEL group than that in the controls (for anterior corneal surface: 0.15 ± 0.08 vs. 0.27 ± 0.08 µm, P < 0.001; for total corneal surface: 0.10 ± 0.09 vs. 0.23 ± 0.09 µm, P < 0.001), the anterior and total corneal horizontal coma were negatively associated with age, whereas the anterior and total corneal spherical aberrations were positively associated with age in patients with CEL.

Conclusions

Patients with CEL had higher corneal horizontal coma and lower corneal vertical coma primary spherical aberrations than healthy controls.

Translational relevance

These findings are informative for the clinical managements in patients with CEL.
