ABSTRACT

Objective: To compare ocular biometry between Chinese and Cuban young adults belonging to the health sector.
Methods: Descriptive observational cross-sectional study in 30 Chinese and 30 Cubans, residents of different medical specialties, who attended the Cuban Institute of Ophthalmology "Ramón Pando Ferrer" between September 2016 and September 2017. The variables studied were: axial length, anterior chamber depth, and horizontal corneal diameter. Non-contact biometry was performed with IOLMaster 500 (Carl Zeiss) in both eyes.
Results: The average age was 24.9 years and 25.9 years in Cuban and Chinese patients respectively. The average biometric results of both eyes for Cuban/Chinese eyes were: axial length 24.10 mm/24.60 mm; anterior chamber width 3.56 mm/3.46 mm; and horizontal corneal diameter 11.80 mm/11.60 mm, with no statistically significant differences. Sixty percent of the Chinese eyes were long, while 45% of the Cuban eyes were long. Two Chinese eyes were reported with narrow anterior chamber and horizontal corneal diameter was normal in a 100 % of them.
Conclusions: Chinese exhibited eyes of greater axial length, smaller anterior chamber width and smaller horizontal corneal diameter than Cubans although the differences were not statistically significant.
