Correlation between Intraocular Pressure and Angle Configuration Measured by OCT: The Chinese American Eye Study.

ABSTRACT:

Purpose

To characterize the relationship between angle configuration measured by anterior segment optical coherence tomography (AS-OCT) and intraocular pressure (IOP).

Design

Cross-sectional study.

Participants

Subjects aged 50 years or older were identified from the Chinese American Eye Study (CHES), a population-based epidemiological study in Los Angeles, CA.

Methods

Each subject underwent a complete ocular exam including Goldmann applanation tonometry, gonioscopy, and AS-OCT imaging. Four AS-OCT images were analyzed per eye and parameters describing angle configuration were measured, including angle opening distance (AOD), angle recess area (ARA), trabecular iris space area (TISA), trabecular iris angle (TIA), and scleral spur angle (SSA). The relationship b
