Improved prediction of intraocular lens power using partial coherence interferometry.

PURPOSE: To evaluate the feasibility of using a new optical biometry technique, dual-beam partial coherence interferometry (PCI), to improve intraocular lens (IOL) power prediction in cataract surgery. SETTING: Department of Ophthalmology, Vienna General Hospital, and Institute of Medical Physics, University of Vienna, Vienna, Austria. METHODS: Preoperative axial length (AL) data obtained with PCI biometry and applanation ultrasound (US) biometry in 77 eyes of 51 patients was applied to 4 commonly used IOL power formulas. The refractive outcome and the mean absolute error (MAE) were calculated for each formula using both biometry methods. A linear multiple-regression model based on preoperative PCI biometry data was derived to predict the postoperative anterior chamber depth (ACD). The predictive power of this regression model was assessed by adding the predicted ACD to the SRK/T formula. Predicted residuals were calculated to evaluate the feasibility and stability of this modified IOL power formula. RESULTS: Using PCI instead of US biometry significantly improved the refractive outcome with all 4 IOL power formulas. The Holladay I and SRK/T formulas yielded an MAE of 0.44 diopter (D) using PCI AL data and 0.56 D and 0.57 D, respectively, using US biometry data. The SRK/T formula combined with the PCI regression model for postoperative ACD prediction performed slightly better (MAE 0.42 D) than the conventional SRK/T formula alone. Predicted residuals revealed an MAE of 0.46 D, proving the predictive performance of the new formula. CONCLUSIONS: Partial coherence interferometry biometry applied to several widely used IOL power formulas yielded significantly better IOL power prediction and therefore refractive outcome in cataract surgery than US biometry. Further improvement can be achieved by applying PCI to a modified SRK/T formula that predicts the postoperative ACD using PCI biometry data.

Resolution-improved dual-beam and standard optical coherence tomography: a comparison.

BACKGROUND: The purpose of the study was to demonstrate the improved axial resolution and longitudinal stability of dual-beam optical coherence tomography (OCT) in comparison to conventional OCT setups used in commercially available OCT instruments. METHODS: The conventional OCT technique is based on an interferometric setup that is rather sensitive to axial eye motions. We have developed a special dual-beam OCT technique which eliminates the influence of axial eye motions. This is achieved by using the anterior corneal surface as the reference surface for the interferometric ranging. To improve the signal quality, the different wavefront curvatures of beams reflected at cornea and retina are matched by a diffractive optical element. To improve the axial resolution, a broadband synthesized light source with an effective bandwidth of 50 nm is used, and the group dispersion of the ocular media is compensated. Tomographic images were recorded in the fovea and the optic nerve head of healthy volunteers. For comparison purposes, approximately the same locations in the same eyes were imaged by a commercially available OCT instrument. RESULTS: Compared to the standard OCT technique, the dual-beam OCT images show considerably improved axial resolution. Especially in tomograms recorded at the fovea, dual-beam OCT resolves microstructural details that are not visible in the standard OCT images. Furthermore, the axial stability of dual-beam OCT enables the recording of exact geometrical contours of fundus layers. CONCLUSIONS: Dual-beam OCT is able to provide structural information on the ocular fundus that is not obtained with standard OCT. The long recording times of our instrument limit the transverse resolution to 100-150 microm at present.

Changes in intraocular lens position after neodymium: YAG capsulotomy.

PURPOSE: To quantify changes in intraocular lens (IOL) position caused by neodymium: YAG (Nd:YAG) capsulotomy with 3 IOL styles. SETTING: Department of Ophthalmology, University of Vienna, Austria. METHODS: In a prospective study, anterior chamber depth (ACD) was measured by dualbeam partial coherence interferometry (PCI) in 32 pseudophakic eyes of 32 patients with posterior capsule opacification before and immediately after planned capsulotomy under mydriasis. Patients were divided into 3 groups with the following IOL styles: 1-piece poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA), 3-piece foldable, and plate haptic. RESULTS: The capsulotomy induced a backward IOL movement in all 32 eyes (mean 25 microns; range 9 to 55 microns). It was more pronounced in eyes with plate-haptic IOLs than in those with the other styles. Precision of ACD measurement by PCI was 4 microns. Changes in ACD correlated significantly with capsulotomy size but not with preoperative lens-capsule distance. CONCLUSION: Capsulotomy caused a backward movement of the IOL, which was more pronounced with plate-haptic IOLs than with 1-piece PMMA and 3-piece foldable IOLs. Since the magnitude of IOL movement in this study population was small, a hyperopic shift in refraction after capsulotomy will usually be small and not clinically relevant.

Investigation of dispersion effects in ocular media by multiple wavelength partial coherence interferometry.

We report on quantitative measurements of group refractive indices and group dispersion in water and in human ocular media such as the cornea, the aqueous humor, the lens, artificial intraocular lenses, as well as a total value averaged over the media along the axial eye length of normal subjects and pseudophakic patients in vivo using dual beam partial coherence interferometry. Different optical thickness values due to the dispersion of the cornea are demonstrated using two spectrally displaced light sources. The displacement can be used to indirectly calculate the group dispersion of the human cornea in the spectral region between 810 nm and 860 nm. If the object under investigation is dispersive, resolution is limited due to a broadening of the detected signals. This broadening increases with group dispersion, i.e., the extent to which the group refractive index of the medium varies with wavelength and thickness of the tissue under investigation as well as with the spectral bandwidth of the light source. Measurements of the group dispersion in the cornea, lens and vitreous of pseudophakic and normal human eyes, show that the cornea and the lens are more dispersive than water-by a factor of about 5 and 2, respectively-in the investigated spectral region. The cornea is approximately threefold more dispersive than the human crystalline lens, the aqueous humor is less dispersive than water and the group dispersion of all ocular components together, averaged over the axial length of normal and pseudophakic eyes, was only slightly higher compared to that of water. Since the highly dispersive cornea and lens together have only a thickness of about one sixth of that of the axial eye length, it seems that their contribution to the group dispersive effect along the whole axial eye length is only small.

Partial coherence interferometry: a novel approach to biometry in cataract surgery.

PURPOSE: To compare biometry performed by an enhanced version of dual beam partial coherence interferometry and applanation ultrasound in a prospective study of 85 cataract eyes to improve refractive outcome of cataract surgery due to a more accurate calculation of intraocular lens power. METHODS: The SRK II formula using ultrasound biometry data was employed. Three months after surgery, partial coherence interferometry biometry was repeated and refractive outcome was determined. Preoperative partial coherence interferometry biometry data were used to determine the refractive power of the intraocular lenses retrospectively and to calculate the possible refractive outcome. RESULTS: Precision of partial coherence interferometry biometry was more than 10 times better than that of ultrasound. Therefore, the possible mean absolute error for postoperative refraction achieved with partial coherence interferometry biometry was 0.49 diopters (compared with 0.67 diopters with ultrasound biometry), resulting in an improvement of 27%. Axial eye length measured with the two techniques differed by a mean of 460 microm. The difference in lens thickness measured with partial coherence interferometry and ultrasound significantly correlated with cataract grade. A mean shortening of 120 microm of axial eye length following cataract surgery was also detected by partial coherence interferometry. CONCLUSIONS: The enhanced version of partial coherence interferometry offers biometry with unprecedented precision (<10 microm) and resolution (approximately 12 microm), therefore improving the refractive outcome in cataract surgery. This noninvasive technique provides a high degree of comfort for the patient, with no need for local anesthesia or pupil dilation and minimized risk of corneal infection.

High precision biometry of pseudophakic eyes using partial coherence interferometry.

PURPOSE: To investigate the applicability of the scanning version of dual-beam partial coherence interferometry (PCI) for measuring the anterior segment and axial length of pseudophakic eyes in a clinical setting and to determine the achievable precision with this biometry technique. SETTING: Department of Ophthalmology, Vienna General Hospital, and Institute of Medical Physics, University of Vienna, Austria. METHODS: Partial coherence interferometry was performed in 39 pseudophakic eyes of 39 patients after implantation of a foldable acrylic intraocular lens (IOL). RESULTS: Effective lens position (ELP), IOL thickness and lens-capsule distance (LCD) were determined with a precision of 2 to 3 microns; corneal thickness and axial eye length, with a precision of 0.8 and 5.0 microns, respectively. The mean ELP of the IOL was 4.093 mm +/- 0.290 (SD). In 7 eyes (18%), a positive LCD of 68 +/- 40 microns was detected with PCI. Mean corneal thickness was 526.4 +/- 31.5 microns; mean IOL thickness, 791.5 +/- 40.2 microns; and mean axial length, 23.388 +/- 0.824 mm. CONCLUSION: The scanning version of PCI enables high precision (< or = 5 microns) and high resolution (approximately 12 microns) biometry of pseudophakic eyes that is better than conventional ultrasound by a factor of more than 20. For the first time, positive LCD, a possible risk factor for posterior capsule opacification, could be detected and quantified. Furthermore, this technique offers a high degree of comfort for the patient since it is a noncontact method with no need for local anesthesia or pupil dilation and has a reduced risk of corneal infection.

Accurate determination of effective lens position and lens-capsule distance with 4 intraocular lenses.

PURPOSE: To measure effective lens position (ELP) of 4 intraocular lenses (IOLs) using high precision and high resolution dual-beam partial coherence interferometry (PCI) and to assess the tendency of these IOLs to produce a lens-capsule distance (LCD), a possible risk factor for posterior capsule opacification. SETTING: Department of Ophthalmology, Vienna General Hospital; Institute of Medical Physics, University of Vienna, Austria. METHODS: In a retrospective study, PCI was used to measure ELP and LCD in 139 pseudophakic eyes of 110 patients with 4 IOLs: acrylic 3-piece IOL (AcrySof MA60BM); silicone 3-piece IOL without a capsular tension ring (PhacoFlex SI30) and with a capsular tension ring (PhacoFlex SI30 and Morcher Type 14); silicone plate-haptic IOL (Staar AA4203VF); and a hydrogel plate-haptic IOL (logel 1103). RESULTS: The ELP and LCD were determined with a precision of approximately 3 to 4 microns. An LCD was detected in 21% eyes with the AcrySof, 20% of eyes with the SI30 without a capsular tension ring, 10% of eyes with a capsular tension ring, 21% of eyes with the Staar, and 17% of eyes with the logel. The LCDs detected by PCI, but not by slitlamp examination, were significantly smaller than those detected by both. CONCLUSION: The amount of LCD detected by PCI was approximately the same with all IOL types (approximately 20%) except the PhacoFlex SI30 with a capsular tension ring (10%).

Eye elongation during accommodation in humans: differences between emmetropes and myopes.

PURPOSE: The pathophysiology and pathogenesis of myopia are still a matter of controversy. Exaggerated longitudinal eye growth is assumed to play an important role in the development of myopia. A significant correlation between refraction and amount of near-work has been reported. However, current knowledge of changes of axial eye length with accommodation is limited because clinical ultrasound biometry does not provide the precision and resolution required to thoroughly investigate these phenomena. METHODS: Partial coherence interferometry (PCI), a noninvasive biometric technique, uses laser light with short coherence length in combination with interferometry to achieve precision in the micrometer to submicrometer range and resolution of 10 microm. In the present study this technique was used to investigate axial eye length changes in 11 emmetropic and 12 myopic eyes during monocular fixation at the far and near point. In 7 subjects, the contralateral eye has also been measured to investigate interocular differences in eye elongation. RESULTS: All investigated eyes elongated during accommodation. This elongation was more pronounced in emmetropes than in myopes (P < 0.001). Mean accommodation-induced eye elongations of 12.7 microm (range, 8.6-19.2 microm) and 5.2 microm (range, 2.1-9.5 microm), corresponding to a dioptric change of approximately -0.036 D and -0.015 D, were obtained for emmetropes and myopes. No significant difference in accommodative amplitudes between groups (5.1 +/- 1.2 D [range, 3.8-7.1 D] versus 4.1 +/- 2.0 D [range, 1.0-7.1 D]; P = 0.14) was detected. No significant interocular difference in accommodation-induced eye elongation was revealed (P = 0.86). Also, a mean backward movement of the posterior lens pole of 38 microm (range, 9-107 microm) was observed in both study groups. CONCLUSIONS: The detected eye elongation can be explained by the accommodation-induced contraction of the ciliary muscle, which results in forward and inward pulling of the choroid, thus decreasing the circumference of the sclera, and leads to an elongation of the axial eye length. Finally, it was demonstrated that PCI, in contrast to clinical ultrasound, is capable of characterizing eye length changes during accommodation in humans.

The effect of systemic nitric oxide-synthase inhibition on ocular fundus pulsations in man.

There is experimental evidence that endothelium derived nitric oxide is involved in the regulation of ocular vascular tone. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of NO-synthase inhibition by N-monomethyl-L-arginine (L-NMMA) on ocular fundus pulsations in young healthy volunteers. Three milligrams per kilograms L-NMMA were administered i.v. over 5 minutes. Protocol 1: Measurements of blood pressure, pulse rate, fundus pulsation amplitude, NO-exhalation, and cardiac output were performed at baseline and 10, 30, 60, 90, 150, and 300 minutes after L-NMMA infusion (n = 8). Fundus pulsation amplitude, which has been shown to estimate the pulsatile component of the choroidal blood flow, was recorded with a recently developed laser interferometer. Protocol 2: Measurements of blood pressure, pulse rate, fundus pulsation amplitude, NO-exhalation, and blood flow velocity in the ophthalmic artery were performed in a randomized, placebo controlled cross over study (n = 10). Ten minutes after L-NMMA administration fundus pulsation amplitude decreased by 23 +/- 2% (protocol 1) and 19 +/- 1% (protocol 2, P < 0.01 each), cardiac output by 12 +/- 2% (P < 0.01), and exhaled NO by 55 +/- 6% (protocol 1) and 41 +/- 6% (protocol 2, P < 0.01 each). All parameters returned to baseline values within the 300 minutes observation period, with a faster recovery of fundus pulsation amplitude than of cardiac output and exhaled NO. Blood pressure, pulse rate, and ophthalmic artery blood flow velocity showed only minor changes during and after administration of L-NMMA. Our results suggest that systemic NO-synthase inhibition reduces pulsatile choroidal and most likely total choroidal blood flow in humans. The recovery of vascular tone in choroidal vessels seems to be different from the cardiovascular response. Our findings indicate that reduced fundus pulsations after L-NMMA are caused by systemic factors as well as by local reactions of the choroidal vasculature.

Biometric investigation of changes in the anterior eye segment during accommodation.

Non-invasive biometry of the anterior structures of the human eye can be performed with unprecedented precision of 8-10 microns and a resolution of approximately 9 microns by partial coherence interferometry, which has the potential to assess the effect of cycloplegia on the ocular components of the anterior eye segment, to further improve the precision to 1-2 microns by the use of these agents and to quantify the amount of residual accommodations in different states of cycloplegia. In addition, the anterior chamber depth, the thickness of the crystalline lens, their changes during accommodation, as well as the movement of the anterior and posterior lens pole during accommodation can be quantified objectively and accurately to investigate the mechanism of accommodation.

Submicrometer precision biometry of the anterior segment of the human eye.

PURPOSE: To demonstrate the feasibility of measuring the anterior structures of the human eye by partial coherence interferometry and to determine its precision for eyes under normal and cycloplegic conditions. METHODS: The dual-beam version of partial coherence interferometry, a recently developed noninvasive optical ranging technique, enables high resolution measurements of several intraocular distances with unprecedented precision. A modified, more sensitive scanning version of this technique was used to assess the central and peripheral corneal thickness, the anterior chamber depth, and the lens thickness of 20 healthy, emmetropic to moderately myopic eyes. Furthermore the anterior structures of three eyes were measured under cycloplegia (1% cyclopentolate) to investigate the influence on the precision of this technique after suppression of residual accommodations. RESULTS: The mean geometric precision (standard deviation) of the measurement of the central corneal thickness was 0.29 micron (range, 0.22 micron to 0.38 micron) and 0.43 micron (range, 0.27 micron to 0.56 micron) for the peripheral corneal thickness at a distance 2 mm from its apex. The precision for measuring the anterior chamber depth and the lens thickness for fixation at infinity was 8.7 microns (range, 3.9 microns to 16.8 microns) and 8.9 microns (rang, 2.9 microns to 14.4 microns) for noncycloplegic eyes and 1.9 microns (range, 1.7 microns to 2 microns) and 1.4 microns (range, 0.7 micron to 1.8 microns) for cycloplegic eyes, respectively. CONCLUSIONS: The dual-beam partial coherence interferometry enables fast, noninvasive, submicrometer precision biometry of the anterior segment of the eye. The precision of determining the anterior chamber depth and the lens thickness is more than one order of magnitude better than that of the currently used ultrasound and optical techniques, and it can be improved by a factor of 5 by using cycloplegia.

A randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind crossover study of the effect of pentoxifylline on ocular fundus pulsations.

PURPOSE: To estimate the short-term effects of pentoxifylline on ocular blood flow in healthy volunteers. METHODS: In ten healthy subjects, either 200 or 400 mg of pentoxifylline or placebo was administered intravenously over 90 minutes in a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, three-way crossover study design. Noninvasive measurements of blood pressure, pulse rate, flow variables in the radial artery, ocular fundus pulsations, and whole blood viscosity and filterability were performed at baseline and at 30-minute intervals until four hours after the start of drug infusion. Ocular fundus pulsation amplitude, which has been shown to estimate the pulsatile component of the ocular blood flow, was recorded with a laser interferometer in the macula, the optic disk, and a peripheral region. RESULTS: Fundus pulsation amplitude significantly increased after infusion of pentoxifylline, with maximum effect 150 to 180 minutes after the start of the infusion. This effect was dose-dependent and more pronounced in the macula (+17%, P < .001 vs baseline, after 200 mg; and +27%, P < .001 vs baseline, after 400 mg of pentoxifylline) and the peripheral region (+14%, P < .001; and +26%, P < .001) than in the optic disk (+11%, P < .002; and +13%, P < .001). Viscosity but not filterability of whole blood dose-dependently decreased. Peak systolic flow velocity in the radial artery decreased after infusion of 400 mg of pentoxifylline. Blood pressure and pulse rate were unchanged during the observation period. CONCLUSIONS: These findings demonstrate that pentoxifylline increases pulsatile ocular blood flow in healthy volunteers. Our results support the possibility that pentoxifylline could be used therapeutically in several eye diseases, such as diabetic retinopathy.

Effect of isoproterenol, phenylephrine, and sodium nitroprusside on fundus pulsations in healthy volunteers.

AIMS/BACKGROUND: Recently a laser interferometric method for topical measurement of fundus pulsations has been developed. Fundus pulsations in the macular region are caused by the inflow and outflow of blood into the choroid. The purpose of this work was to study the influence of a peripheral vasoconstricting (the alpha 1 adrenoceptor agonist phenylephrine), a predominantly positive inotropic (the non-specific beta adrenoceptor agonist isoproterenol), and a non-specific vasodilating (sodium nitroprusside) model drug on ocular fundus pulsations to determine reproducibility and sensitivity of the method. METHODS: In a double masked randomised crossover study the drugs were administered in stepwise increasing doses to 10 male and nine female healthy volunteers. Systemic haemodynamic variables and fundus pulsations were measured at all infusion steps. RESULTS: Fundus pulsation increased during infusion of isoproterenol with statistical significance versus baseline at the lowest dose of 0.1 microgram/min. Neither peripheral vasoconstriction nor peripheral vasodilatation affected the ocular fundus pulsations. CONCLUSIONS: Measurements of fundus pulsations is a highly reproducible method in healthy subjects with low ametropy. Changes of local pulsatile ocular blood flow were detectable with our method following the infusion of isoproterenol. As systemic pharmacological vasodilatation or vasoconstriction did not change fundus pulsations, further experimental work has to be done to evaluate the sensitivity of the laser interferometric fundus pulsation measurement in various eye diseases.

The effect of hyperoxia and hypercapnia on fundus pulsations in the macular and optic disc region in healthy young men.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the influence of hyperoxia and hypercapnia on fundus pulsations in the macular and optic disc region and determine a potential autoregulative capacity of the choroid under these conditions. In a randomized cross-over study 100% O2 and a mixture of 5% CO2 with air was inhaled for 10 min by ten healthy male volunteers on different study days. Fundus pulsations were measured with a recently described laser interferometer. These results were compared to changes in systemic haemodynamics and Doppler-sonographic measurements of the radial artery. The fundus pulsation amplitude significantly decreased during hyperoxia and significantly increased during hypercapnia. These effects on fundus pulsations were stronger in the optic disc region than in the macular region. The systemic parameters showed only minor changes. Hence the amplitudes of fundus pulsations measured during hyperoxia and hypercapnia are assumed to be a consequence of metabolic autoregulative mechanisms. This autoregulative capacity is greater in the optic disc region than in the macular region, implying that the fundus pulsation amplitude in the papilla is influenced by both the choroidal and the retinal circulation.

Comparison of non-invasive methods for the assessment of haemodynamic drug effects in healthy male and female volunteers: sex differences in cardiovascular responsiveness.

1. The study was performed to determine the sensitivity and short-term and day-to-day variability of a novel technique based on laser interferometry of ocular fundus pulsations and of non-invasive methods for the quantification of haemodynamic drug effects. An additional aim was to assess sex differences in haemodynamic responsiveness to cardiovascular drugs in male and female healthy volunteers. 2. Ten males and nine females (age range 20-33 years) were studied in a double-blind, randomized, cross-over trial. Simultaneous measurements from systemic haemodynamics, laser interferometry of ocular fundus pulsations, systolic time intervals from mechanocardiography, a/b ratio from oxymetric fingerplethysmography and Doppler sonography of the radial artery were used to describe the haemodynamic effects of cumulative, stepwise increasing intravenous doses of phenylephrine, isoprenaline, sodium nitroprusside and of placebo. 3. Laser interferometry detected the isoprenaline-effects at the lowest dose level of 0.1 micrograms min-1 with a high signal-to-noise ratio. The reproducibility of measurements under baseline was high, no changes were observed after systemically effective doses of phenylephrine or sodium nitroprusside. Systolic time intervals were sensitive and specific for isoprenaline-induced effects, PEP and QS2c-measurements had high reproducibility. Fingerplethysmography proved a sensitive measurement for the detection of the vasodilating effects of sodium nitroprusside, but was not specific, and showed low reproducibility. Measurements from Doppler sonography had lower reproducibility and sensitivity compared with the other applied methods. 4. There was a significant sex difference for several of the haemodynamic parameters under baseline conditions; however, the responsiveness to the drugs under study was not different, when drug effects were expressed as %-change from the baseline. 5. Laser interferometry is a valuable non-invasive, highly sensitive and specific approach for the detection of pulse pressure changes. A battery of non-invasive tests appears useful for the characterization of cardiovascular drugs. Gender differences may not pose a relevant problem for the study of acute haemodynamic effects of cardiovascular drugs.

Interferometric measurement of corneal thickness with micrometer precision.

The recently developed partial coherence laser Doppler interferometry technique was improved to measure central and peripheral corneal thickness with high precision. Corneal thickness profiles were measured on 18 eyes of health, volunteer subjects. All of these eyes were measurable at angles (between visual axis and measuring direction) ranging from 20 degrees nasal to 25 degrees temporal. At larger angles (up to 35 degrees) only part of the eyes was measurable. The thickness profiles of the 18 corneas have a nearly perfectly parabolic shape within the measured region. The precision (standard deviation) was 1.6 microns for central measurements and decreased somewhat to about 3.5 microns at measuring angles in the range of 25 to 30 degrees. No significant interobserver variability was found on 14 eyes measured by three different observers. This study indicates that the new technique is likely to be superior to currently used ultrasound and conventional optical pachymetry techniques, especially for refractive procedures.
