Assessment of factors affecting anterior chamber depth from data obtained from health checkup participants in Japan.

ABSTRACT: Measurement of anterior chamber depth (ACD), an important marker for the screening of primary angle-closure glaucoma, requires biometry, which is not readily used. This study assessed the relationship between ACD and health check-up data findings from participants with good corrected visual acuity in Japan. Participants underwent ophthalmic, anthropometric, and hematological assessments. The mean ACD of all 3060 participants was 3.33 ± 0.34 mm [2.22-4.72 mm]. Multivariable linear regression analysis was performed to determine factors that were significantly correlated with ACD, and logistic regression analysis was performed to predict ACD < 2.70 mm. Multivariable linear regression analysis showed that age, sex, intraocular pressure, spherical equivalent refractive error (SER), height, and
