Abstract
Purpose:
To investigate the normative data of anterior chamber width, anterior chamber volume and their associations with ocular and general parameters in Chinese adults.
Methods:
The Beijing Eye Study 2006 included 3251 subjects. The subjects underwent an ophthalmologic examination including measurement of the anterior chamber dimensions by slit-lamp-based optical coherence tomography and got the value of anterior chamber width and anterior chamber volume. The multiple linear regression analysis were used to analysis the relationship between ACW, ACV and ocular and general parameters.
Results:
The ACW was significantly associated with gender, age, rural or urban district, intraocular pressure, anterior chamber depth, anterior chamber angle, ortical cataract, systolic blood pressure. The ACV was significantly associated with gender, age, rural or urban district, CCT, anterior chamber depth, anterior chamber angle, primary angle closure glaucoma, nuclear cataract, cortical cataract, DM, systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure.
Conclusions:
The ACW and ACV are maybe important parameters about to evaluate and diagnose eye diseases
