Purpose: To quantitatively assess and compare the anterior chamber volume (ACV) by different anterior segment imaging techniques.
Methods: Forty healthy eyes of 40 patients were recruited and three consecutive measurements of ACV were determined prospectively utilizing SL-OCT and Pentacam. Statistical significance of interdevice differences between measurements was evaluated by unpaired t test and Bland-Altman analysis. The repeatability of three consecutive measurements was analyzed by repeated measured analysis of variance.
Results: Eighty eyes of 40 patients (18 female, 22 male) with a mean spherical error of -0.55+/-1.4 diopters were included in the study. Mean ACV were detected as 163.34+/-29.76 mm3 by Pentacam and 164.14+/-28.44 mm3 by SL-OCT (unpaired t test, p=0.872). Pentacam and SL-OCT displayed a high intrasession repeatability (repeated measured analysis of variance, p>0.05). ACV values detected by SL-OCT were clinically interchangeable with Pentacam.
Conclusions: Noncontact measurements of ACV using SL-OCT and Pentacam were easy to handle and demonstrated good repeatability. The tested devices were regarded as compatible in measuring ACV.

Ophthalmology, University of Washington, Seattle, USA.
Objective: This study investigates the refractive accuracy of eight intraocular lens (IOL) power calculation formulas in patients with postoperative refractive surprise after phacoemulsification. It aims to determine if a different formula could result in better refractive outcomes in these eyes.
Methods And Analysis: We retrospectively reviewed consecutive patients undergoing uncomplicated phacoemulsification as a sole procedure between March 2007 and September 2020 at the University of Washington by glaucoma subspecialists as part of a study investigating cataract surgery in normal eyes.

Cataract surgery is the most frequently performed surgery worldwide. Although it is an effective surgical treatment option for improving patients' visual acuity, various complications can occur postoperatively. One such complication is the presence of retained lens material in the anterior chamber, which can lead to intraocular inflammation, increased intraocular pressure, corneal edema, and endothelial cell loss.

Purpose: This study evaluates the discrepancies between ACV measurements obtained from the Heidelberg Anterion and Zeiss IOLMaster 700 and investigates the significance of ACV and other ocular biometry parameters.
Patients And Methods: To investigate intraocular fluid circulation, a robust formula was developed for ACV measurement using the Zeiss IOLMaster 700. A pilot study was conducted to validate this formula, which relied on WTW, CCT, and ACD.
