A total of 102 patients were enrolled. Their ocular surface disease index (OSDI), Standard Patient Evaluation of Eye Dryness (SPEED) questionnaire, Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale anxiety subscale (HADS-A), and depression subscale (HADS-D) were recorded. The LLT, meibomian gland secretion quality, tear film break-up time (TBUT), conjunctival hyperemia grade, corneal staining score, and VDTt were also evaluated. Spearman analysis was used to analyze the correlation. The patients were divided into the thinner LLT group (LLT < 75 nm) and the thicker LLT group (LLT ≥ 75 nm). The Mann-Whitney U test was used to analyze the characteristics and to compare the two groups. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used to predict the relationship between VDTt and LLT.</p><p><strong>Results: </strong>Spearman correlation analysis showed a significant positive correlation between TBUT and average LLT, and significant negative correlations between mean LLT and OSDI, SPEED, meibomian gland secretion quality, conjunctival hyperemia, corneal staining, VDTt, PSQI, and HADS-A. In comparison to the thick LLT group, the thin LLT group had a worse OSDI score, shorter TBUT, longer VDTt, worse PSQI and HADS-A scores. The ROC curve indicated that the optimal cutoff value for using VDT to predict LLT less than 75 nm is 8.25 hours.</p><p><strong>Conclusion: </strong>The thinner LLT had worse questionnaire scores and signs related to dry eye, which indicates that a thinner LLT is more prone to causing dry eye. Using VDTt for more than 8.25 hours is more likely to induce thinning of the LLT, thereby increasing the risk of dry eye. Patients with a sleep disorder and anxiety are more susceptible to thinning of the LLT, suggesting that they are prone to developing dry eye syndrome.</p>","PeriodicalId":17904,"journal":{"name":"Klinische Monatsblatter fur Augenheilkunde","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2025-04-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143023951","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

An accurate preoperative measurement is crucial for predicting outcomes, particularly in minimizing postoperative refractive errors through precise intraocular lens (IOL) selection. This study aimed to analyze preoperative biometric data in cataract patients to identify key parameters relevant for clinical decision-making. The study also sought to understand patient demographics and biometrics in a representative population. An automated retrospective analysis was conducted on the preoperative biometric data of 6 163 eyes from 3 118 patients who underwent cataract or clear lens extraction (CLE) surgery in a German clinic over the past 2 years. All measurements were taken using the IOL Master 700 (Carl Zeiss Meditec, Jena, Germany), and data were automatically transferred for analysis using a dedicated software tool. Biometric parameters assessed included axial length (AL), keratometry values (K, TK), anterior chamber depth (ACD), lens thickness (LT), and vitreous length (VL). The age and gender distribution of the cohort was also considered. The biometric data from this large patient cohort largely aligns with published norms for cataract patients. The majority of eyes exhibited ALs and corneal curvatures within expected ranges, supporting accurate IOL power calculations. The study also confirmed a high prevalence of mild astigmatism, suggesting that toric IOLs could address residual astigmatism for better visual outcomes. This study's large sample size adds valuable insights into preoperative cataract patient data and shows the value of an automated analysis.</p>","PeriodicalId":17904,"journal":{"name":"Klinische Monatsblatter fur Augenheilkunde","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2025-03-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143730726","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
