Summary

There have been numerous studies comparing various ACD measurements in phakic eyes,while researches comparing ACD in pseudophakic eyes are less extensive. With the recent popularity of presbyopia correction, measuring the ACD will facilitate differentiating pseudophakic accommodation from pseudoaccommodation. It is thus mandatory to verify the accuracy of ACD measurement of these devices since the innovation of various IOLs in the recent decade makes this task more complicated. In this study, we will assess the limitations of using Pentacam for ACD measurement in pseudophakic eyes and compare Pentacam measurement with IOLMaster and A-scan measurements.
