Objective: To assess the accuracy of classification of narrow anterior chamber (AC) angles using quantitative imaging by optical coherence tomography (OCT) and ultrasound biomicroscopy (UBM).Design: Observational comparative study.Methods: A high-speed (4000 axial scans/s) anterior segment OCT prototype was developed using a 1.3-mu m light source. Seventeen normal subjects (17 eyes) and 7 subjects (14 eyes) with narrow angle glaucoma were enrolled. All subjects underwent gonioscopy, OCT, and UBM. Quantitative AC angle parameters (angle opening distance, angle recess area, and the trabecular-iris space area [a new parameter we have defined]) were measured from OCT and UBM images using proprietary processing software.Main Outcome Measures: Specificity and sensitivity in identifying narrow angles with image-derived AC angle parameters.Results: Eight of 31 eyes were classified as having narrow angles (Shaffer grade
