To compare ocular biometry and central corneal thickness of unaffected healthy eyes of pediatric patients with monocular cataracts/corneal opacities and age- matched controls.
We studied 329 eyes of 329 children who were between 1 and 12 years old. The study group (n: 164) consisted of healthy fellow eyes of children operated for unilateral congenital/traumatic cataract and corneal laceration. Axial length, anterior chamber depth, lens thickness, vitreous chamber depth, and central corneal thickness were measured by ultrasound biometry/ pachymetry.
Axial length was 22.16 mm in the study group and 21.99 mm in the control group. Anterior chamber depth, lens thickness, and vitreous chamber depth results were 3.35; 3.64 and 15.20 in the treatment group and 3.20; 3.63, and 15.15 mm in the control group, respectively. The axial length and all the components, i.e. anterior chamber depth, lens thickness, and vitreous chamber depth are higher in the unaffected healthy eyes of the pediatric patients than that of the control group but only the difference in the anterior chamber depth was statistically significant. The central corneal thickness was 548 microns and 559 microns in the study and the control groups, respectively, and the difference was found to be significant.
Greater anterior chamber depth was chiefly responsible for the overall increase in the axial length in the study group. The central corneal thickness was significantly thinner in the study group than that of the control group. Keywords Ocular biometry; central corneal thickness; anterior chamber depth; lens thickness; vitreous chamber depth.
比较患有单眼白内障/角膜混浊的儿科患者未受影响的健康眼睛与年龄匹配的对照组的眼生物测量参数和中央角膜厚度。
我们研究了329名年龄在1至12岁之间儿童的329只眼睛。研究组（n = 164）由接受单侧先天性/外伤性白内障和角膜裂伤手术的儿童的健康对侧眼组成。通过超声生物测量法/测厚法测量眼轴长度、前房深度、晶状体厚度、玻璃体腔深度和中央角膜厚度。
研究组的眼轴长度为22.16mm，对照组为21.99mm。治疗组的前房深度、晶状体厚度和玻璃体腔深度结果分别为3.35、3.64和15.20，对照组分别为3.20、3.63和15.15mm。儿科患者未受影响的健康眼睛的眼轴长度和所有组成部分，即前房深度、晶状体厚度和玻璃体腔深度均高于对照组，但仅前房深度的差异具有统计学意义。研究组和对照组的中央角膜厚度分别为548微米和559微米，差异具有统计学意义。
前房深度增加是研究组眼轴长度总体增加的主要原因。研究组的中央角膜厚度明显薄于对照组。关键词 眼生物测量；中央角膜厚度；前房深度；晶状体厚度；玻璃体腔深度
