Purpose: To assess the repeatability and agreement of parameters obtained with two biometers and to compare the predictability.
Methods: Biometry was performed on 101 eyes with cataract using the IOLMaster 700 and the Galilei G6. Three measurements were obtained per eye with each device, and repeatability was evaluated. The axial length (AL), anterior chamber depth (ACD), keratometry (K), white-to-white (WTW) corneal diameter, central corneal thickness (CCT), and lens thickness (LT) were measured and postoperative predictability was compared.
Results: Measurements could not be obtained with the IOLMaster 700 in one eye and in seven eyes with the Galilei G6 due to dense cataract. Both the IOLMaster 700 and Galilei G6 showed good repeatability, although the IOLMaster 700 showed better repeatability than the Galilei G6. There were no statistically significant differences in AL, ACD, steepest K, WTW, and LT ( > 0.050), although flattest K, mean K, and CCT differed ( < 0.050). The proportion of eyes with an absolute prediction error within 0.5 D was 85.0% for the IOLMaster 700 and was 80.0% for the Galilei G6 based on the SRK/T formula.
Conclusions: Two biometers showed high repeatability and relatively good agreements. The swept-source optical biometer demonstrated better repeatability, penetration, and an overall lower prediction error.

Application of the Taylor Diagram in Evaluating the Performance of IOL Formulas.
J Refract Surg
January 2025
Purpose: To apply a new method, the Taylor Diagram, and a new concept, the centered root mean square error (cRMSE), in evaluating the performance of IOL formulas.
Methods: The preoperative biometrics were measured with the IOLMaster 700 (Carl Zeiss Meditec) and the postoperative spherical equivalent refraction (SER) was calculated in 888 anonymous patients. The Taylor Diagram was applied to visualize the centered root mean square error (cRMSE) and the correlation coefficient between the predictions and the observations (R).
Comparison of Toric Intraocular Lens Axis Accuracy between Optical Biometry and Dual Scheimpflug Topography.
Korean J Ophthalmol

Department of Ophthalmology, Seoul National University Bundang Hospital, Seongnam, Korea.
Purpose: To evaluate the accuracy of toric intraocular lens (IOL) axis prediction between two preoperative measurement devices: the optical biometry (IOLMaster 500 or 700) and the dual Scheimpflug topography (Galilei G4).
Methods: Medical records of 64 eyes from 44 patients who underwent phacoemulsification and posterior chamber toric IOL (Zeiss AT TORBI 709M) implantation between July 2017 and January 2022 were reviewed. All patients underwent preoperative evaluation by optical biometry (IOLMaster 500 or IOLMaster 700) and Galilei G4.

Department of Ophthalmology, Pennsylvania State University, Hershey, PA, United States of America.
Purpose: To investigate different measures for corneal astigmatism in the context of reconstructed corneal astigmatism (recCP) as required to correct the pseudophakic eye, and to derive prediction models to map measured corneal astigmatism to recCP.
Methods: Retrospective single centre study of 509 eyes of 509 cataract patients with monofocal (MX60P) IOL. Corneal power measured with the IOLMaster 700 keratometry (IOLMK), and Galilei G4 keratometry (GK), total corneal power (TCP2), and Alpin's integrated front (CorT) and total corneal power (CorTTP).

Purpose: This study aims to compare and evaluate the correlation and agreement among three distinct anterior segment analysis systems in measuring anterior chamber depth (ACD) in healthy myopic individuals.
Methods: Myopic patients who underwent preoperative assessments at our hospital's refractive surgery department from January 2021 to December 2023 were included in this investigation. ACD was measured using three anterior segment analysis systems: Pentacam, Sirius, and IOLMaster 700.

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.
