MRMaría Romaguera GVGonzalo Valdes-Soria LSLaura Ximena Sierra-Buitrago

Key Points

To validate and compare the accuracy of two commercial OCT systems for measuring soft contact lens thickness.
Conducted in vitro tests using two OCT systems and an electronic thickness gauge.
Measured the central thickness of various soft contact lenses.
Assessed repeatability and agreement between techniques.
Both OCT systems showed good repeatability in measuring lens thickness.
Demonstrated strong agreement with electronic thickness gauge measurements.
Supported interchangeable use of OCT systems for lens development and quality control.

Abstract

Both OCT systems demonstrate good repeatability and strong agreement with the electronic thickness gauge for measuring the central thickness of soft contact lenses, and can be used interchangeably. These findings support their use as a viable alternative in lens development, manufacturing, and quality control.
