Knowledge of the repeatability and validity of any instrument is mandatory before its introduction in clinical practice. Background: The aim of this work is to examine the intrasession repeatability of anterior pole measurements provided by the multidiagnostic device Wave Analyzer Medica 700 (WAM700) and agreement with Pentacam measurements in normal eyes. Methods: In the right eyes of 113 participants, three repeat measurements of central keratometry, central corneal thickness, anterior chamber depth and corneal eccentricity were made with the WAM700 and Pentacam in random order. Intrasession repeatability and agreement were determined. Results: Employing WAM700, intrasession repeatability for keratometry, central corneal thickness and anterior chamber depth was good (ICCs ≥ 0.992; CV 0.48-0.98%), yet worse than the values obtained for the Pentacam (ICCs ≥ 0.998; CV 0-0.33%). WAM700 showed excellent intrasession repeatability when used to measure the anterior chamber depth (Sw 0.03 mm). However, the repeatability of this device was inferior for central corneal thickness (Sw 4.24 μm) and keratometry measurements (Sw < 0.21 D) and was poor for corneal eccentricity (Sw 0.07; ICC 0.908; CV 14.58%). Agreement between WAM700 and Pentacam showed a high ICC for the keratometry measurements, central corneal thickness and anterior chamber depth (>0.972) but lower for corneal eccentricity (ICC 0.762). Conclusions: In healthy eyes, the WAM700 multidiagnostic device showed good intrasession repeatability for keratometry, central corneal thickness and anterior chamber depth measurements. Agreement between WAM700 and Pentacam was good for the anterior chamber depth measurement. However, these instruments cannot be considered interchangeable for keratometry, central corneal thickness and eccentricity readings.engjournal article1444-0938https://doi.org/10.1080/08164622.2024.232497838494447https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.1080/08164622.2024.2324978restricted access617.7-073611.84AgreementWave Analyzer Medica 700Anterior segmentCorneaRepeatabilityÓptica y optometríaÓptica geométrica e instrumental2209 Óptica3314 Tecnología Médica2410.02 Anatomía Humana
