Biometric Data of Adults and Children With Marfan Syndrome

Adults Children P Value
Spherical equivalent (D), ±SEa −5.57 ± 1.36 −7.85 ± 1.30 .23
Axial length (mm), ±SEb 25.25 ± 0.32 24.24 ± 0.33 .03
Kmed (D), ±SE 41.59 ± 0.35 40.89 ± 0.36 .17
Cast (D), ±SEc 1.26 ± 0.17 1.44 ± 0.17 .46
CCT (μm), ±SE 543.00 ± 7.31 541.56 ± 8.04 .90
ACD (mm), ±SEd 3.47 ± 0.09 3.54 ± 0.09 .62
Lens thickness (mm), ±SEe 3.94 ± 0.09 3.62 ± 0.10 .03

ACD = anterior chamber depth; Cast = corneal astigmatism; CCT = central corneal thickness; D = diopters; K = keratometry; LT = lens thickness.

a

Pseudophakic and aphakic eyes were excluded. Phakic eyes with aphakic correction (ie, the patient looking through “aphakia” in case of ectopia lentis) were also excluded.

b

Eyes status postsurgery for retinal detachment were excluded.

c

Calculated as Kmax–Kmin.

d

Only phakic eyes were included.

e

Only phakic eyes without ectopia lentis were included.
