The Role of Anterior Chamber Depth on Post-operative Refractive Error After Phacovitrectomy

Figures & data

Figure 1 Scatter plot showing distribution of the refractive error (absolute value of the difference between the spherical equivalent values of the intended and final refractions) between eyes filled with BSS, air and gas.

Table 1 Comparison of Baseline Characteristics, SE Difference and ACD Between Groups with Different Vitreous Filling in Phacovitrectomy

Parameter	BSS (n=10)	Air (n=18)	Gas (n=15)
AL (mm)	23.93±1.58	23.77±0.81	24.30±0.97
SE difference (D, absolute values)	0.71±0.58	0.49±0.38	0.68±0.99
ACD pre-op (mm)	2.96±0.25	3.19±0.41	3.14±0.38
ACD post-op (mm)	4.81±0.49	4.74±0.55	4.73±0.37
ACD difference (mm)	1.85±0.50	1.55±0.49	1.77±0.93

Notes: No significant differences were found between groups (all p values were >0.05).

Abbreviations: AL, axial length; SE, spherical equivalence; ACD, anterior chamber depth.
