ACCEPTED MANUSCRIPT Purpose: To evaluate the effects of birth weight on ocular anterior segment parameters in full-term children without low birth weight using the Galilei DualSheimpflug Analyzer. Design: Retrospective cohort study.
RI PT
Methods: The right eyes from 110 healthy children, 3–6 years of age, were scanned with Galilei Dual-Scheimpflug Analyzer. A total of 78 eyes were measured in full-term children with birth weight of >2500g. Central, paracentral, pericentral, and the thinnest corneal thicknesses; anterior and posterior keratometry (average, steep, flat); axial curvatures; asphericity of cornea; anterior chamber depth and volume; iridocorneal angle values were measured. Axial length, lens thickness, and vitreous length were obtained by ultrasound biometry.
M AN U
SC
Results: The mean age of children was 55.86 ± 12.52 (mean ± SD) months. Mean birth weight and gestational age were 3426.3 ± 545 g and 39.4 ± 1.2 weeks, respectively. Although lens thickness, vitreous length, axial length, and anterior chamber volume were moderately correlated with birth weight (P0.8 (in decimals); no history of any systemic or ocular diseases; no history of previous ocular surgeries; no history of ROP; no current medications; and no retinal or optic disc abnormalities on fundoscopy. Birth history data, including birth weight and gestational age, were obtained from documented medical records (hospital, physician, or nurse), copies of which were provided by the parents. Prematurity and low birth weight were defined gestational age
