Age-Related Changes and Cycloplegia-Induced Differences of the Human Crystalline Lens, Schlemm' s Canal and Trabecular Meshwork：an in Vivo Swept-Source Optical Coherence Tomography Study

Healthy individuals aged between 6 and 90 years, without history of ocular disease (except age-related cataract and/or myopia), were consecutively included from April to May 2019. All participants underwent visual acuity, dry and wet refraction, anterior and posterior segment examination, intraocular pressure (IOP), and axial length (AL) using IOL-Master 700 (Carl Zeiss Meditec AG). Investigators recruited children under 18 years old at a refraction outpatient clinic, who were prescribed cyclopentolate hydrochloride eyedrops (S.A. Alcon-Couvreur N.V., Belguim) for cycloplegic refraction. For adults, they were prescribed compound tropicamide eyedrops (Mydrin-P, Santen Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd, Osaka, Japan), consisting of 0.5% tropicamide mixed with 0.5% phenylephrine hydrochloride, for pupillary dilation in order to perform fundus examination at an outpatient clinic. Exclusion criteria were as follow:ocular diseases other than cataracts; history of eye surgeries or injuries; shallow anterior chamber with a risk of angle closure. The data from right eye was selected for analysis.
