Within-subject standard deviation (Sw), repeatability and reproducibility (2.77 Sw), coefficient of variation (CoV), and intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) were used to assess the Pentacam AXL intra-observer repeatability and inter-observer reproducibility. Paired <jats:italic>t<\/jats:italic>-test and Bland-Altman plots were used to determine the agreement between the two biometers.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>The new optical biometer had high intra-observer repeatability [all parameters evaluated had low CoV (&amp;lt;0.71%) and high ICC (&amp;gt;0.88)]. Inter-observer reproducibility was also excellent, with high ICC (&amp;gt;0.95) and low CoV (&amp;lt;0.52%). The 95% LoA between the new biometer and OA-2000 were insignificant for most of the parameters evaluated, especially for AL. However, the measurement agreement was moderate for CCT.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title><jats:p>Intra-observer repeatability and inter-observer reproducibility were excellent for all parameters evaluated using the new optical biometer based on Scheimpflug imaging and PCI.
