To compare the characteristics of biometric measurements among the LS900, IOL Master, and OPD-SCAN III in patients with mild-to-moderate cataract.
We recruited 85 eyes of 78 patients diagnosed with mild-to-moderate cataract at our hospital between January and April 2023. The K (average corneal curvature; K1 and K2), astigmatism (AST), and white to white (WTW) were measured using those three devices, respectively. Differences and correlations between those measures based on the device were explored.
The K1, K2, and AST were highly consistent among the groups (P = 0.851, P = 0.626, P = 0.473, respectively). The WTW measured by IOL Master were larger than those measured by the LS900 and OPD-SCAN III (all P < 0.001). However, all three devices were highly correlated in all measures (P < 0.001). Bland-Altman plots indicated a significant agreement between three devices in all measurements (P < 0.001).
K1, K2, and AST in patients with mild-to-moderate cataract were similar among all three devices, whereas the WTW were not. WTW measurement differences between three devices should be concerned in cataract cases.
