Abstract

Purpose:Compare clinical & biometric findings of Nanophthalmos (NO group) with age matched controls(CO group).Methods:Retrospective,study with NO(<18 years) at tertiary center (Jan 2010-Dec 2019).Best corrected visual acuity ,axial length (AxL), keratometry ,anterior chamber depth (ACD),lens thickness ,retinochoroidal scleral thickness ,corneal diameter,central corneal thickness (CCT),intraocular pressure,lens axial length factor(LAF) and lens thickness/anterior chamber depth ratio (LT/ACD) compared.Results:Mean age and spherical equivalent(SE) was 8.95 ± 4.0 years and 10.87 ±3.1D.Ocular associations were esotropia,amblyopia,PACG,pigmentary retinopathy and retinal detachment.50% had angle closure disease(30% laser iridotomy).Significant difference in CCT, SE,ACD and LAF.Multivariable regression analysis showed significant correlation.Conclusion:Amblyopia seen in NO.AxL<17mm had angle closure with lower ACD and higher SE,LAF.CCT was significantly different.NO needs close monitoring.
