Swept-source optical coherence tomography (OCT) is the latest advancement in
anterior segment imaging. There are limited data regarding its performance after
laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK). We compared the reliability of swept-source
OCT and Scheimpflug imaging for evaluation of corneal parameters in refractive
surgery candidates with myopia or myopic astigmatism. Three consecutive
measurements were obtained preoperatively and 1 year postoperatively using
swept-source OCT and Scheimpflug imaging. The study parameters included central
corneal thickness (CCT), thinnest corneal thickness (TCT), keratometry at steep
(Ks) and flat (Kf) axes, mean keratometry (Km), and, anterior and posterior best
fit spheres (Ant and Post BFS). The main outcome measures included reliability of
measurements before and after LASIK was evaluated using intraclass correlation
coefficient (ICC) and reproducibility coefficients (RC). Association between the
mean value of corneal parameters with age, spherical equivalent (SEQ), and
residual bed thickness (RBT) and association of variance heterogeneity of corneal
parameters and these covariates were analyzed. Twenty-six right eyes of 26
participants (mean age, 32.7 ± 6.9 yrs; mean SEQ, -6.27 ± 1.67 D) were included.
Preoperatively, swept-source OCT demonstrated significantly higher ICC for Ks,
CCT, TCT, and Post BFS (P ? 0.016), compared with Scheimpflug imaging.
Swept-source OCT demonstrated significantly smaller RC values for CCT, TCT, and
Post BFS (P ? 0.001). After LASIK, both devices had significant differences in
measurements for all corneal parameters (P ? 0.015). Swept-source OCT
demonstrated a significantly higher ICC and smaller RC for all measurements,
compared with Scheimpflug imaging (P ? 0.001). Association of variance
heterogeneity was only found in pre-LASIK Ant BFS and post-LASIK Post BFS for
swept-source OCT, whereas significant association of variance heterogeneity was
noted for all measurements except Ks and Km for Scheimpflug imaging.This study
reported higher reliability of swept-source OCT for post-LASIK corneal
measurements, as compared with Scheimpflug imaging. The reliability of corneal
parameters measured with Scheimpflug imaging after LASIK was not consistent
across different age, SEQ, and RBT measurements. These factors need to be
considered during follow-up and evaluation of post-LASIK patients for further
surgical procedures.
