Purpose

This study examines agreement between the devices Anterion®️ and Pentacam HR®️ used for corneal and pupil measurements in healthy eyes.

Setting

Hospital Clinic de Barcelona

Methods

The parameters compared between the two devices were: anterior Km (D), anterior K2 (D), anterior K1 (D), anterior K1 axis (°), anterior astigmatism (D), anterior K max (D), posterior Km (D), posterior K2 (D), posterior K1 (D), posterior K1 axis (°), posterior astigmatism (D), CCT (µm), thinnest point thickness (µm), thinnest point X-coordinate (mm), thinnest point Y-coordinate (mm), pupil diameter (mm), pupil center-corneal vertex distance (mm) (angle kappa), pupil centroid angle (°), pupil centroid X-coordinate (mm), and pupil centroid Y-coordinate (mm).

Results

The Student's t test for independent samples identified significant differences (p < 0.005) between devices for the measurements anterior and posterior flat K axis, posterior flat K, steep K, and mean K. For these last three measurements, although significant, none of the differences were clinically relevant. Corneal power and thickness measurements except Kf axis showed excellent agreement between Anterion and Pentacam.

Conclusions

In a clinical setting we would not recommend the interchangeable use of Pentacam and Anterion for measurement of pupil parameters.
