Purpose: This prospective and comparative study assesses the agreement of anterior, posterior, and total corneal astigmatism measurements between swept-source optical coherence tomography (Anterion) and Scheimpflug cameras, Placido disc, and OCT-based tomography (Galilei G6).
Methods: A total of 59 eyes of 59 patients were assessed using two optical biometers. Anterior, posterior, and total keratometry measurements were obtained, and flat (K1), steep (K2), astigmatic power, and J vectors (J and J) were compared. Bland-Altman plots and intraclass correlation coefficients (ICC) were used to evaluate agreement and reliability between the devices.
Results: Statistically significant differences were found for flat keratometry measurements of anterior corneal power (Galilei G6: 43.41 ± 1.78; Anterion: 43.32 ± 1.73) and total corneal power (Galilei G6: 42.41 ± 1.85; Anterion: 42.84 ± 1.81), as well as for steep keratometry of posterior corneal power (Galilei G6: - 6.41 ± 0.38; Anterion: - 6.31 ± 0.30) and total corneal power (Galilei G6: 43.69 ± 1.89; Anterion: 43.91 ± 1.89) (p < .05). In contrast, no statistically significant differences were found for the mean power vector components comparison between the devices. Agreement analysis showed significant proportional bias for cylindrical power and vector components (J and J) of posterior and total astigmatism. No bias was observed with any of the anterior astigmatism and vector components. ICC showed showed relatively poor reliability (ICC < 0.5) between the device measurements moderate reliability for posterior corneal parameters.
Conclusion: Anterior, posterior, and total astigmatism measurements between the Anterion and Galilei G6 are not interchangeable.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to quantify the corneal power changes after wearing orthokeratology lenses of different back optic zone diameters (BOZDs) and to propose a novel 4-parameter model capable of revealing the associations between each parameter and axial length growth (ALG).
Methods: A prospective self-controlled study was conducted between June 2022 and December 2023. One eye in each subject (N = 33) was randomly assigned to wear a lens with a BOZD of either 5 mm (5 oz) or 6 mm (6 oz).
Purpose: To evaluate and compare the effect of pupil size, spherical aberration (SA), decentration, and tilt on the optical performance of five different monofocal intraocular lenses (IOLs).
Methods: Four aspheric IOLs (Vivinex, Hoya; SN60WF, Alcon Laboratories, Inc; ZCB00, Johnson & Johnson Surgical Vision; Akreos Adapt AO, Bausch & Lomb) with different SA values and one spherical IOL (SN60AT, Alcon Laboratories, Inc) were tested using an OptiSpheric IOL PRO 2 optical bench. The IOL diopter was measured at different apertures.

The global prevalence of myopia has increased significantly in recent decades, and it is anticipated that half the population of the world will be myopic by 2050. The dramatic increase in myopia cannot be explained solely by genetic factors; hence, environmental factors such as near work may play an important role in myopia development. Near work activities involve accommodation, convergence, and pupil constriction, which lead to various mechanical changes that alter the structural and optical properties of the anterior eye.
