Abstract
A Scheimpflug video camera with digital image analysis was used to assess iridocorneal angles in 11 eyes with nonoccludable open angles and nine eyes with occludable narrow angles. Normal eyes had a mean angle width of 28.2 ± 2.5° and eyes with occludable narrow angles had a mean angle width of 17.5 ± 3.2°. Interobserver variability was 1.98° and 1.94° in open and narrow angles, respectively. Intraobserver variability was 1.81°. This technique provides a method for longitudinal observation and quantitative assessment of the iridocorneal angle.
