Anterior segment parameters measured by UBM. (a) Part of anterior segment parameters measured by UBM. (Illustrator: Kangyi Yang). LV, the perpendicular distance from the anterior pole of the lens to the horizontal line between the scleral spurs; ACW, the distance between the two scleral spurs; Iris area, the cumulative cross-sectional area of the full length (from spur to pupil) of the iris. (b) Part of anterior segment parameters measured by UBM. (Illustrator: Kangyi Yang). AOD 500/750: the distance between the posterior corneal surface and the anterior iris surface on a line perpendicular to the trabecular meshwork 500 μm and 750 μm from the scleral spur; TISA 500/750: the area bounded anteriorly by AOD 500 and AOD 750 as determined, posteriorly by a line drawn from the scleral spur perpendicular to the plane of the inner scleral wall to the iris, superiorly by the inner corneoscleral wall, and inferiorly by the iris surface; TIA 500/750: the apex of the angle at the iris recess and the arms of the angle passing through a point on the trabecular meshwork at 500 μm and 750 μm from the scleral spur and the point on the iris perpendicularly opposite; CPA: the cross-sectional area of ciliary process bounded laterally by a line connecting the insertion location of iris into the ciliary body and the cross-point of a line at 500 μm from the scleral spur perpendicular to the plane of the inner scleral wall to the ciliary process, and internally by the ciliary process surface; TCA: the angle between the posterior corneal surface and the anterior surface of the ciliary body; CBTMax, the thickest location of the ciliary body; TCPD, the length of the line extending from the corneal endothelium 500 μm from the SS perpendicularly through the posterior surface of iris to the ciliary process.
