Anterior chamber depth in relation to refractive status measured with the Orbscan II Topography System.

Purpose: To evaluate the anterior chamber depth (ACD) according to refractive status, assess the reliability of repeated ACD measurements using the Orbscan II Topography System (Bausch and Lomb), compare Orbscan II and IOLMaster (Carl Zeiss Meditec AG) ACD measurements, and investigate the correlation between refraction, axial length (AL), and ACD.

Setting: Department of Ophthalmology, Ruprecht-Karls-University of Heidelberg, Heidelberg, Germany.

Methods: In this clinical study, 60 patients with a mean age of 43.

Kjellin's syndrome: fundus autofluorescence, angiographic, and electrophysiologic findings.

Objective: Syndromes with genetically determined retinal diseases and concurrent multiple neurologic abnormalities are rare. Kjellin described an autosomal recessive entity with spastic paraplegia, mental retardation, amyotrophia, and macular dystrophy. We sought to further characterize the retinal phenotype and to contrast fundus changes and the genotype to Stargardt's disease in a young patient with progressive Kjellin's syndrome.
