Purpose: The aim was to evaluate the agreement in the central corneal thickness (CCT), thinnest corneal thickness (TCT), anterior chamber depth (ACD), and mean simulated keratometry (simK) measurements using Pentacam, Galilei, and Sirius Scheimpflug systems in normal eyes.
Methods: Anterior segment measurements were performed with Pentacam, Galilei, and Sirius devices in 32 healthy subjects. The right eye of each participant was selected. Measurements obtained with the 3 systems were compared using repeated-measures analysis of variance and Bonferroni multiple comparisons test.
Results: Analysis of variance determined a significant difference in the anterior segment measurements of CCT, TCT, ACD, and simK between the 3 devices (P < 0.001). Pairwise comparisons of CCT and TCT measurements were significantly different except for the comparison between Pentacam and Sirius. All pairwise comparisons for ACD were statistically significant. The pairwise comparison results for simK values showed that the Galilei and Sirius systems demonstrated better agreement with each other than with Pentacam.
Conclusions: The results of this study suggest that the Pentacam, Galilei, and Sirius Scheimpflug systems should not be accepted as interchangeable for CCT, TCT, ACD, and simK in healthy subjects.

Chongqing Key Laboratory of Prevention and Treatment on Major Blinding Diseases, Chongqing Eye Institute, Chongqing Branch (Municipality Division) of National Clinical Research Center for Ocular Diseases, The First Affiliated Hospital of Chongqing Medical University, Chongqing, China.
Background: This study aimed to comprehensively explore the thickness and topographic distributions of retinal vessel alterations of different myopic eyes by using swept-source OCT angiography (SS-OCTA).
Methods: One hundred myopes were included in this observational cross-sectional study. All participants underwent a series of ocular examinations of biometrical parameters, including spherical equivalent refraction (SER), axial length (AL), intraocular pressure (IOP), curvature radius (CR), and others.

This prospective cohort study is aimed to investigate circadian variations in corneal parameters, focusing on sleep-deprived subjects. Sixty-four healthy individuals (age range: 21-76 years) actively participated in this study, undergoing examinations at least five times within a 24-hour timeframe. The analysis encompassed keratometric parameters of the cornea's front (F) and back (B) surfaces, refractive power in flattest and steepest axes (K1, K2), astigmatism (Astig) and its axis (Axis), aspheric coefficient (Asph), corneal pachymetry values of thinnest corneal thickness (Pachy Min) and corneal thickness in the center of the pupil (Pachy Pupil), volume relative to the 3 and 10 mm corneal diagonal (Vol D3, Vol D10) and surface variance index (ISV).
