AB  - AIM: To compare the anterior segment morphology evaluated using ultrasound 
      biomicroscopy (UBM) in patients with clinical pseudoexfoliation syndrome (XFS) in 
      one eye and no clinical XFS in the fellow eye. METHODS: Thirty patients with 
      unilateral XFS were included in the study. All patients underwent evaluation of 
      their anterior segment using UBM with and without dilatation with 1% 
      cyclopentolate. The anterior chamber depth (ACD), lens thickness (LT), anterior 
      chamber angle (ACA), ciliary body thickness (CBT), scleral thickness (ST), 
      trabeculae -ciliary processes distance (T-CPD), and iris-ciliary processes 
      distance (I-CPD) were measured using UBM scans. All results between the eyes with 
      clinical XFS and their fellow eyes without clinical XFS were then compared. 
      RESULTS: Before dilatation the eyes with XFS (4.350+/-0.531 mm) were found to have 
      a significantly thicker lens (P=0.002) than the eyes without XFS (4.238+/-0.540 
      mm). In addition after dilatation, the eyes with XFS (4.310+/-0.500 mm) were found 
      to have a significantly thicker lens than the eyes without XFS (4.160+/-0.480 mm) 
      (P=0.019). The average ACD, for the group with XFS, comparing pre-dilatation 
      (2.616+/-0.349 mm) and post-dilatation measurements (2.714+/-0.413) was found to be 
      statistically increased (P=0.014). The average ACD, comparing pre-dilatation to 
      post-dilatation measurements in patients without XFS (2.680+/-0.360), (2.720+/-0.500) 
      was found to be statistically unchanged (P=0.450). DISCUSSION: Crystalline lenses 
      tended to be thicker in the eyes with clinical pseudoexfoliation than their 
      fellow eyes without pseudoexfoliation.
