Distribution of White-to-White Corneal Diameter and Anterior Chamber Depth in Chinese Myopic Patients

Purpose: To investigate the distribution of white-to-white (WTW) corneal diameter and anterior chamber depth (ACD) in Chinese myopia patients.Methods: This was a cross-sectional observational study conducted at five ophthalmic centers. Anterior segment biometry was performed in 7,893 eyes of the 7,8...

Anterior segment biometry was performed in 7,893 eyes of the 7,893 myopic patients using Pentacam, and the WTW and ACD were recorded.

There was a significant correlation between WTW and ACD (r = 0.460, P < 0.001).Conclusions: In our study, 95% of the Chinese myopic patients had a WTW within 10.91–12.39 mm and an ACD within 2.74–3.75 mm.
