• Assessing the consistency of pupil offset measurements between the Pentacam and Keratron Scout is essential for the refractive surgery design of young myopic patients. Accurate preoperative measurement of pupil offset is critical to achieving a better quality of vision after refractive surgery. The Pentacam and Keratron Scout are commonly used in hospitals, and evaluating their consistency is essential for accurate measurement of pupil offset. Six hundred eyes (600 subjects) were included in this study. Pupil offset and its X, Y-component were measured by Pentacam and Keratron Scout, respectively. Agreement and repeatability between the two devices were identified by intraclass correlation coefficient and Bland-Altman plots with 95% limits of agreement. Paired t-tests and Pearson analysis were used to compare the differences and correlations between the two devices. The mean age of all subjects was 23 ± 5 years. The mean pupil offset magnitude obtained from Pentacam and Keratron Scout was 0.16 ± 0.08 mm and 0.15 ± 0.07 mm. The 95% limits of agreement (−0.11-0.13, −0.09-0.11, and −0.11-0.12) and intraclass correlation coefficient (0.82, 0.84, and 0.81) demonstrated good agreement and repeatability of the two devices in measuring pupil offset and its X, Y-component. A significant correlation between the two devices was found (r = 0.71, 0.73, and 0.70). The direction of pupil offset measured by the devices was both predominately towards the superonasal quadrant. Pentacam and Keratron Scout showed good agreement in measuring pupil offset and its X, Y-component, which can be used interchangeably in clinical practice.
