Comparison between point-based and ring-based technologies in keratometric measurement among post myopic laser refractive surgery patients
Introduction: Corneal power or keratometric value represents two-third of total refractive power of the eye. It is an important parameter in intraocular lens calculation. Purpose of the study was to evaluate repeatability and agreement of keratometric measurements obtained from a six points-based...

| description | Introduction: Corneal power or keratometric value represents two-third of total
refractive power of the eye. It is an important parameter in intraocular lens calculation.
Purpose of the study was to evaluate repeatability and agreement of keratometric
measurements obtained from a six points-based keratometry device; IOLMaster 500 (Carl
Zeiss Meditec AG, Jena, Germany) and two Placido disc-based keratometry devices;
Atlas Topographer 995 and 9000 models (Carl Zeiss Meditec AG, Jena, Germany).
Materials and method: A total of 97 post myopic laser refractive surgery subjects were
recruited. Three set of mean corneal power measurements from each device were
performed by an examiner in a single visit. The repeatability was evaluated by withinsubject
standard deviation, coefficient of variation and intraclass correlation
coefficient. A one-way repeated measures analysis of variance was conducted to
evaluate keratometric measurement differences between the devices. The BlandAltman
analysis was employed to assess inter-device agreement.
Results: There were no significant differences of three repeated keratometric
measurements in each device (p > 0.05). IOLMaster showed the lowest coefficient of
variations in all meridians (< 0.30%).The intraclass correlations were higher than 0.90 in
all devices. For inter-device agreement, there were statistically significant differences
between Atlas 9000-IOLMaster and Atlas 995-IOLMaster (p < 0.05). The 95% limit of
agreement ranged from 0.94 to 1.68.
Conclusion: The six points-based technology has a higher repeatability compared to ring
based technology in measuring postoperative keratometric measurements. Different
keratometry technologies cannot be used interchangeably in clinical setting. |
