Horizontal extraocular muscle insertion site in relation to axial length using swept-source anterior segment OCT

Clinical Ophthalmology Nov 03, 2020

El-Fayoumi D, Bahgat N, Khafagy M, et al. - Researchers conducted this cross-sectional, descriptive study to correlate between the axial length of the globe and the insertion site of horizontal extraocular muscles utilizing swept-source anterior segment optical coherence tomography (SS-ASOCT), with posing an equation to calculate the muscle insertion site from the axial length. They involved 157 right eyes of normal people who were seeking correction of refractive errors or were just having minor ocular complaints like infective or allergic conjunctivitis. A strong positive association was shown by comparing the horizontal extraocular muscle insertion site to axial length using SS-ASOCT. Model equation for MR insertion: MR (mm) = 4.522 + 0.045 (AXL in mm) with an R = 0.437, R2= 0.191, F=12.071 and model equation for LR insertion: LR (mm) = 5.72 + 0.048 (AXL in mm) with an R = 0.438, R2= 0.192, F=12.116.
