Eyes of Aniso-Axial Length Individuals Share Generally Similar Corneal Biometrics with Normal Eyes in Cataract Population

Figure 3

Distribution of posterior corneal aberrations among the eight subgroups in the longer set. TAs = total aberrations; HOAs = high-order aberrations; LOA = low-order aberrations. For the aniso-axial length subgroups, a value of 1 mm is included in the 1-2 mm subgroup and similarly for other values that fall at the boundary between two subgroups. The values for TAs, HOAs, LOAs, and oblique trefoil with analyses of variance among the eight aniso-axial length subgroups in the longer set were 0.025, 0.005, 0.039, and 0.040, respectively. The values for TAs, HOAs, LOAs, and oblique trefoil using independent Student’s t test between aniso-axial length eyes in the longer set with and without AL ≥5 mm were <0.001, 0.036, 0.001, and 0.275, respectively.
