摘要： Purpose: To assess agreement between 3 measures of central corneal thickness (CCT) taken over a few minutes from nominally normal eyes with a non-contact specular microscope. Methods: 100 eyes from 100 healthy adults (with an average age of 22 y) were assessed using the Topcon 3000 P instrument to obtain a high quality image of the endothelium and pachymetry. Results: The group mean CCT values from the 1st, 2nd and 3rd measures were 0.519, 0.520 and 0.520 mm, but the sets of values could di?er by between – 0.020 mm and + 0.029 mm, i.e. between - 4.0 and + 5.6% of the average values. Paired comparisons (e.g. 2nd vs. 1st set) indicated limits of agreement (LoA) to be between - 0.020 and + 0.020 mm of the averaged value. Across the 3 measures, the averaged SD was 0.005 mm to give an estimate of the intra-subject variability (as the coe?cient of variation, COV) of 0.91% (range 0 to 2.3%). The variability in the pachymetry measures was not predictably related to the averaged values of CCT (r = 0.022) or self-reported refractive error of the subjects (r = 0.012). Some repeat pachymetry assessments obviously in-cluded the same region of the endothelium. Conclusions: Single pachymetry measures with a non-contact specular microscope are only likely to be able to generate CCT estimates within +/? 4% of the expected average values. This repeatability is comparable to single image estimates of endothelial cell density and therefore acceptable in most cases.
