PurposeThis study aimed to evaluate the consistency of preoperative keratometric values, anterior segment, and intraocular lens (IOL) power measurements in patients with cataract and no comorbidities using the Sirius topography device (CSO, Italy) and Lenstar LS 900 (Haag-Streit AG, Koeniz, Switzerland).MethodsPatients with grade 2 and 3 cataracts who applied to Ophthalmology Clinic of Diskapi Yildirim Beyazit Education and Research Hospital, University of Health Sciences and planned for cataract surgery were included the study. Forty eyes with cataract from 40 patients were taken in the study. All patients underwent preoperative assessment using a combined Scheimpflug-Placido disc-based tomography device (Sirius) and Lenstar before cataract surgery. Keratometric measurements, such as flat keratometry (K1), steep keratometry (K2), and maximum keratometry (Kmax), and anterior segment parameters, white-to-white (WTW) distance, IOL power, astigmatism (AST), anterior chamber depth (ACD), aqueous depth (AD), and central cornea thickness (CCT), were recorded.ResultsThere were significant differences between K1Lenstar and K1Sirius, K2Lenstar and K2Sirius, KmaxLenstar and KmaxSirius, WTWLenstar and WTWSirius, and IOL powerLenstar versus IOL powerSirius. However, there were insignificant differences between ASTLenstar and ASTSirius, ACDLenstar versus ACDSirius, ADLenstar and ADSirius, and CCTLenstar and CCTSirius variables. Furthermore, it was found that Sirius measured significantly higher than Lenstar, especially in terms of IOL power.ConclusionSignificant differences were observed between Lenstar and Sirius in terms of keratometric values, WTW distance, and IOL power. The IOL power value measured with Sirius was found to be higher than the IOL power value measured with Lenstar.
