1. Purpose: To measure changes in angle width after phacoemulsification and intraocular lens (IOL) implantation using anterior segment optical coherence tomography (AS-OCT).
   
   Materials and Methods: Twenty-one patients undergoing cataract surgery were recruited from the National University Hospital, Singapore. AS-OCT images were obtained of nasal and temporal angle quadrants before and at 1-month after surgery. Optical measurements of central anterior chamber depth were obtained, and gonioscopic measurement of angle width was recorded. AS-OCT angle width parameters measured in the nasal and temporal quadrants included the angle opening distance at 500 [mu]m (AOD500) anterior to the scleral spur and the ...
