Age-Related Changes in Astigmatism and Potential Causes

Body mass index and astigmatism: A nationwide study

BACKGROUND

Existing research on the relationship between body mass index (BMI) and astigmatism yields inconsistent results. This study analyses this association in a nationally representative sample of adolescents.

METHODS

This retrospective, cross-sectional study included Israeli adolescents who underwent medical assessments before mandatory military service between 2011 and 2022. BMI was categorised based on the US age- and sex-matched percentiles. Astigmatism was categorised by magnitude [low-moderate: 0.75 to <3.00 diopters (D), high: ≥3.00 D], and axis orientation [with-the-rule (WTR), against-the-rule (ATR), or oblique (OBL)]. Sex-stratified regression models adjusted for sociodemographic variables were used.

RESULTS

Of 935 989 adolescents evaluated, 887 325 were included [511 465 (57.6%) males, mean age 17.2 years]. Astigmatism was diagnosed in 123 675 (13.9%) adolescents, of whom 117 081 (13.2%) had low-moderate and 6594 (0.7%) had high astigmatism. WTR astigmatism was the most prevalent (8.2%), followed by ATR (4.1%) and OBL (1.6%) types. Compared with low-normal BMI (5th to 50th percentile), the adjusted ORs for total astigmatism increased with increasing BMI, peaking at 1.65 (1.57-1.74) in males and 1.74 (1.64-1.86) in females with severe obesity. ORs were accentuated for high astigmatism, reaching 3.51 (3.01-4.09) in males, and 3.45 (2.83-4.22) in females with severe obesity. WTR astigmatism demonstrated the strongest association with BMI, with ORs reaching 2.26 (2.13-2.40) in males and 2.04 (1.90-2.20) in females with severe obesity. The results persisted in a series of subgroup analyses.

CONCLUSIONS

Obesity is associated with higher odds of astigmatism in adolescence. Further investigation into the role of weight management in astigmatism development is warranted.

Prevalence data for total corneal astigmatism in cataract patients

PURPOSE

To report the prevalence data for total corneal astigmatism (TCA) in cataract patients.

METHODS

The authors retrospectively collected and analyzed the preoperative biometric data of the patients who underwent cataract surgery in the Department of Ophthalmology, Peking University Third Hospital, from January 2019 to May 2023.

RESULTS

The mean age of the 10817 patients was 71 ± 10 years; the male/female ratio was 4653/6164. The mean TCA obtained by the IOLMaster 700 (Carl Zeiss Meditec AG, Jena, Germany), the Abulafia-Koch (AK) formula, and the Barrett toric calculator was 1.11 ± 0.81 diopter (D), 1.13 ± 0.75 D, and 1.12 ± 0.74 D respectively, which was significantly greater than the mean standard keratometric (K) astigmatism (0.99 ± 0.75 D) obtained by IOLMaster 700. Against-the-rule (ATR) astigmatism was dominant in all the TCA measurements, and its proportion increased with age. TCA measurements by different methods exhibit high variability, with a total of 1574 (8.9%) data sets from 1016 (9.4%) patients showing a difference larger than 0.5 D in at least one pair of TCA measurements.

CONCLUSION

The use of TCA rather than K astigmatism significantly influenced the choice of intraocular lenses (IOLs) as more patients would be candidates for toric IOLs. It was essential to carefully compare and select TCA obtained with multiple methods for optimal postoperative visual quality.

Significant Changes of Corneal Astigmatism After Levator Muscle Surgery for Acquired Blepharoptosis

PURPOSE

To investigate the change of corneal astigmatism after the correction of blepharoptosis.

METHODS

This was a single-center retrospective cohort study conducted in Taiwan from 2017 to 2021. The medical records of patients with acquired blepharoptosis who had received levator muscle surgeries were collected. The differences in corneal astigmatism between the measurements before and at least 1 month after surgeries were investigated. Subgroup analysis of various severities of blepharoptosis and different types of corneal astigmatism was performed to determine their impacts on the axial changes after blepharoptosis surgeries.

RESULTS

A total of 120 eyes of 68 patients were enrolled in this study. The mean axial change of corneal astigmatism was 17.4° after blepharoptosis surgeries, and 55 eyes (45.8%) had a change of at least 10°. In the subgroup analysis, the eyes with against-the-rule, with-the-rule, and oblique astigmatism had 42.9%, 68.4%, and 91.7% with an axial change of at least 10° after surgeries, respectively. The averaged axial change of corneal astigmatism after surgeries was 22.7° in eyes with severe blepharoptosis (margin to reflex distance1 < 1 mm), whereas it was 12.0° in eyes with mild-to-moderate blepharoptosis (margin to reflex distance1 ≥ 1 mm).

CONCLUSIONS

A high proportion of eyes had a crucial axial change in corneal astigmatism after blepharoptosis surgeries, especially in those with oblique astigmatism and severe blepharoptosis. For blepharoptosis patients needing refractive surgeries or astigmatism correction with toric intraocular lens implantation, a surgical correction of blepharoptosis may be considered beforehand.

Prevalence and risk factors for astigmatism in 7 to 19-year-old students in Xinjiang, China: a cross-sectional study

BACKGROUND

To investigate the prevalence and risk factors for astigmatism in 7-19-year-old students in Xinjiang, China.

METHODS

A school-based, cross-sectional study was conducted on students who underwent refraction examination in Xinjiang, China, between May and December 2019. The prevalence of astigmatism was determined. Astigmatism was defined as cylinder power (C) ≤-0.75 D, undefined astigmatism as ≤-1.50 D, and high astigmatism as C ≤-3.00 D. Astigmatism types were: against-the-rule astigmatism (maximum refraction of the main meridian in 180° ± 30°), with-the-rule astigmatism (maximum refraction of the main meridian at 90°±30°), and oblique astigmatism (all other cases).

RESULTS

Of the 71,838 students examined (51.0% boys, 7 - 19 years old), 25,945 (36.1%, 95%CI: 35.52-36.68%) had astigmatism and 1267 (1.8%, 95%CI: 1.07-2.53%) had high astigmatism. The prevalence of astigmatism was greater in Han individuals (39.6%) compared with the Hui (34.0%), Kazakh (34.0%), Kyrgyz (32.1%), and Uyghur (26.4%) populations. Among the 25,945 students with astigmatism, 19,947 had with-the-rule astigmatism (76.9%), 3405 had against-the-rule astigmatism (13.1%), and 2593 had oblique astigmatism (10.0%). Multivariable logistic regression analysis showed that ethnicity (Han individuals more susceptible), male gender, age, and refractive errors (myopia and hyperopia) were independently associated with astigmatism, high astigmatism, and with-the-rule astigmatism (all P < 0.05).

CONCLUSIONS

The prevalence of astigmatism among children and adolescents in Xinjiang was 36.1%, including 1.8% of high astigmatism. In this population, astigmatism was mainly of the with-the-rule astigmatism type (76.9%). Han ethnicity, male gender, and myopia or hyperopia were independently associated with a high risk of astigmatism.

Cylinder power progression associated with axial length in young children: a two-year follow-up study

PURPOSE

To describe the association of refraction development and axial length (AL) in young children and provide new insights into the progression of cylinder power.

METHODS

Children (2-3 grades) were enrolled from primary schools in Shanghai and followed up for two years. Cycloplegic refraction, AL, and corneal curvature radius were measured. Refraction parameters were compared among groups with different AL, AL1 (AL < 23.5 mm), AL2 (23.5 mm ≤ AL < 24.5 mm), and AL3 (AL ≥ 24.5 mm). Multiple regression analysis was used to explore risk factors of diopter of cylinder (DC) progression.

RESULTS

In total, out of 6891 enrolled children, 5961 participants (7-11 yrs) were included in the final analysis. Over the two-year period, the cylinder power significantly changed, and those with longer AL had more rapid DC progression over the two years (AL1, -0.09 ± 0.35 D; AL2, -0.15 ± 0.39 D; AL3, -0.29 ± 0.44 D) (P < 0.001). The change in DC was independently associated with AL at baseline (P < 0.001). The proportion of with-the-rule astigmatism increased from 91.3% to 92.1% in AL1 group, from 89.1% to 91.8% in AL2 group and from 87.1% to 92.0% in AL3 group.

CONCLUSIONS

Young children with long AL experienced rapid progression of cylinder power. Both the control of myopia progression and attention to the correction of astigmatism are necessary in the health management of children with long AL. The significantly increased AL in participants might contribute to both the extent and direction of astigmatism.

Quality assessment of non-mydriatic fundus photographs for glaucoma screening in primary healthcare centres: a real-world study

BACKGROUND

This study assessed the quality distribution of non-mydriatic fundus photographs (NMFPs) in real-world glaucoma screening and analysed its influencing factors.

METHODS

This cross-sectional study was conducted in primary healthcare centres in the Yinzhou District, China, from 17 March to 3 December 2021. The quality distribution of bilateral NMFPs was assessed by the Digital Reading Department of the Eye Hospital of Wenzhou Medical University. Generalised estimating equations and logistic regression models identified factors affecting image quality.

RESULTS

A total of 17 232 photographs of 8616 subjects were assessed. Of these, 11.9% of images were reliable for the right eyes, while only 4.6% were reliable for the left eyes; 93.6% of images were readable in the right eyes, while 90.3% were readable in the left eyes. In adjusted models, older age was associated with decreased odds of image readability (adjusted OR (aOR)=1.07, 95% CI 1.06~1.08, p<0.001). A larger absolute value of spherical equivalent significantly decreased the odds of image readability (all p<0.001). Media opacity and worse visual acuity had a significantly lower likelihood of achieving readable NMFPs (aOR=1.52, 95% CI 1.31~1.75; aOR=1.70, 95% CI 1.42~2.02, respectively, all p<0.001). Astigmatism axes within 31°~60° and 121°~150° had lower odds of image readability (aOR=1.35, 95% CI 1.11~1.63, p<0.01) than astigmatism axes within 180°±30°.

CONCLUSIONS

The image readability of NMFPs in large-scale glaucoma screening for individuals 50 years and older is comparable with relevant studies, but image reliability is unsatisfactory. Addressing the associated factors may be vital when implementing ophthalmological telemedicine in underserviced areas.

Long-term safety and efficacy of a foldable iris-fixated phakic intraocular lens for the correction of myopia

PURPOSE

To analyze and report the long-term outcomes in terms of efficacy and safety of eyes implanted with the spherical version of a foldable iris-fixated phakic intraocular lens (pIOL) for the correction of myopia.

METHODS

Retrospective analysis of the results of 56 eyes of 32 patients (age, 19-45 years) who underwent implantation of the spherical model of the Artiflex pIOL (Ophtec B.V., Groningen, The Netherlands) for the correction of myopia. Visual, refractive, biometric, intraocular pressure (IOP) and corneal endothelial changes were evaluated during a long-term follow-up: 2, 7, 10 and 12 years for more than 50, 30, 20 and 10 eyes, respectively.

RESULTS

At 4 weeks postoperatively, a significant reduction of manifest sphere and spherical equivalent (SE), with a significant improvement of uncorrected distance visual acuity were found (all p < 0.001). No significant changes were found during the rest of follow-up in sphere (p ≥ 0.072). The percentage of eyes with SE within ± 1.00 D was over 83% during the whole follow-up. A non-significant trend to IOP increase was observed at 4 weeks postoperatively (p = 0.530), with a significant reduction at 1 year after (p = 0.039) and no significant changes during the rest of follow-up (p = 0.180). There was a significant reduction of anterior chamber depth at 4 weeks after surgery (p < 0.001), with no significant changes during the following 9 years of follow-up (p = 0.118). However, an additional significant decrease of this parameter was observed between 10 and 13 years after surgery (p = 0.027). Mean endothelial cell loss changed from 2.01 ± 4.49% at 4 weeks after surgery to 9.11 ± 2.24% at the end of the follow-up. No complications were reported during the follow-up.

CONCLUSIONS

Myopia correction with the Artiflex pIOL is an effective and safe procedure in the long term.

Combined Femtosecond Laser-Assisted Keratotomy and Cataract Surgery for Enhancing Refractive Outcomes. An Indonesian Case Study

Purpose

We evaluate the reduction of corneal astigmatism and the improvement of visual outcomes of this surgical method in the Indonesian population. We also assess the accuracy and predictability of using femtosecond laser astigmatic keratotomy (FLAK) combined with cataract surgery.

Patients and Methods

In a retrospective study, a total of 275 subjects (78 with against-the-rule (ATR) astigmatism, 178 with with-the-rule (WTR) astigmatism, and 19 with oblique (OBL) astigmatism) with preexisting corneal astigmatism ranging from 0.75D to 3.00D underwent FLAK. All subjects completed a 3-month follow-up. The femtosecond laser used for creating paired AK 2.2 mm, primary incision, and paracentesis incision was the FEMTO Z8 NEO from Ziemer Ophthalmic System, Switzerland. The surgical approach was guided by the "NAPA" nomogram.

Results

The reduction in postoperative astigmatism was 56.90% for the WTR group, 49.46% for the ATR group, and 47.33% for the oblique group. A significant reduction in astigmatism was observed at the 1-week, 1-month, and 3-month follow-up intervals in both the WTR and ATR groups. The reduction in astigmatism was more favorable in cases of moderate astigmatism within the WTR group, as compared to the ATR and oblique groups. Postoperative astigmatism reduction was found to be more predictable in the right eye than in the left eye.

Conclusion

The combination of FLAK can be considered as a potential method for reducing corneal astigmatism ranging from 1.00D to <3.00D. The highest reduction was observed in the WTR group, along with a higher rate of intended correction without astigmatism meridian shift in the right eye for the WTR group. However, factors such as cyclotorsion resulting from the surgical technique, alignment of docking, incision length, and preoperative astigmatism need to be taken into account for further enhancement and predictability of astigmatism reduction with this method.

Distribution and Characteristics of Ocular Biometric Parameters among a Chinese Population: A Hospital-Based Study

INTRODUCTION

This study aimed to describe the distribution and characteristics of ocular biometric parameters among a large Chinese population.

METHODS

This retrospective cross-sectional study included 146,748 subjects whose ocular biometric parameters were measured at the ophthalmology clinic of West China Hospital, Sichuan University, and recorded in the hospital database. Ocular biometric parameters, including axial length, anterior chamber depth, corneal keratometry, and keratometric astigmatism, were recorded. Only monocular data for each subject were analyzed to avoid bias.

RESULTS

Valid data from 85,770 subjects (43,552 females and 42,218 males) aged 3-114 years were included in this study. The mean axial length, mean anterior chamber depth, average corneal keratometry, and mean keratometric astigmatism were 24.61 mm, 3.30 mm, 43.76 D, and 1.19 D, respectively. The stratification of the ocular parameters by age and gender showed significant inter-gender and inter-age differences.

CONCLUSIONS

Analysis of a large population of subjects in western China aged 3-114 years showed that the distribution and characteristics of ocular biometric parameters, including axial length, anterior chamber depth, corneal keratometry, and keratometric astigmatism, differed by age and gender. This study is the first to describe ocular biometric parameters in subjects aged > 100 years.

Normative Topographic Anterior and Posterior Corneal Astigmatism: Axis Distribution and Its Relations with Ocular and Biometric Parameters

Corneal astigmatism correction is a key factor when planning refractive treatment for ametropies with intraocular lenses. We aim to obtain normative anterior and posterior corneal astigmatism (ACA and PCA, respectively) data in a local population and to describe their axis distribution and their association with other parameters. A total of 795 patients with no ocular diseases were evaluated with corneal tomography and optical biometry. Only data of the right eye were included. Mean ACA and PCA were 1.01 ± 0.79 and 0.34 ± 0.17 D, respectively. Vertical steep axis distribution was 73.5% for ACA and 93.3% for PCA. Axis orientation between ACA and PCA matched best for vertical orientation (especially 90° to 120°). Vertical ACA orientation frequency decreased with age, with a more positive sphere and less ACA. Vertical PCA orientation frequency increased with higher PCA. Eyes with vertical ACA orientation were younger and showed a greater white-to-white (WTW) measurement, anterior corneal elevations, ACA and PCA. Eyes with vertical PCA orientation were younger and showed greater anterior corneal elevations and PCA. Normative ACA and PCA data in a Spanish population were presented. Steep axis orientations presented differences with age, WTW, anterior corneal elevations and astigmatism.

Correlation between bilateral lateral rectus muscle recession and myopic progression in children with intermittent exotropia

Although several studies have reported about the relationship between the surgical correction of intermittent exotropia and myopic progression, it remains unclear, unlike the relationship between esotropia and hyperopia. Thus, this retrospective case control study evaluated the impact of bilateral lateral rectus recession in intermittent exotropia on myopic progression. This study included 388 patients with intermittent exotropia. The refractive errors and degree of exodeviation at each follow up period were analyzed. The rate of myopic progression was -0.46 ± 0.62 diopter (D)/year in patients who underwent surgery and -0.58 ± 0.78 D/year in patients who did not, with no significant difference between them (p = 0.254). Patients who had recurrences of more than 10 prism diopters were compared with patients who did not have. The rate of myopic progression was -0.57 ± 0.72 D/year in the recurrent group and -0.44 ± 0.61 D/year in the non-recurrent group, with no significant difference between them (p = 0.237). Patients with fast myopic progression had more recurrence than patients with slow progression (p = 0.042). Moreover, recurrence had a positive correlation with fast myopic progression (OR = 2.537, p = 0.021). Conclusively, the surgical correction of intermittent exotropia did not influence myopic progression.

The Role of Oxidative Stress in the Aging Eye

Given the expanding elderly population in the United States and the world, it is important to understand the processes underlying both natural and pathological age-related changes in the eye. Both the anterior and posterior segment of the eye undergo changes in biological, chemical, and physical properties driven by oxidative stress. With advancing age, changes in the anterior segment include dermatochalasis, blepharoptosis, thickening of the sclera, loss of corneal endothelial cells, and stiffening of the lens. Changes in the posterior segment include lowered viscoelasticity of the vitreous body, photoreceptor cell loss, and drusen deposition at the macula and fovea. Age-related ocular pathologies including glaucoma, cataracts, and age-related macular degeneration are largely mediated by oxidative stress. The prevalence of these diseases is expected to increase in the coming years, highlighting the need to develop new therapies that address oxidative stress and slow the progression of age-related pathologies.

Identification of ocular refraction based on deep learning algorithm as a novel retinoscopy method

BACKGROUND

The evaluation of refraction is indispensable in ophthalmic clinics, generally requiring a refractor or retinoscopy under cycloplegia. Retinal fundus photographs (RFPs) supply a wealth of information related to the human eye and might provide a promising approach that is more convenient and objective. Here, we aimed to develop and validate a fusion model-based deep learning system (FMDLS) to identify ocular refraction via RFPs and compare with the cycloplegic refraction. In this population-based comparative study, we retrospectively collected 11,973 RFPs from May 1, 2020 to November 20, 2021. The performance of the regression models for sphere and cylinder was evaluated using mean absolute error (MAE). The accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, area under the receiver operating characteristic curve, and F1-score were used to evaluate the classification model of the cylinder axis.

RESULTS

Overall, 7873 RFPs were retained for analysis. For sphere and cylinder, the MAE values between the FMDLS and cycloplegic refraction were 0.50 D and 0.31 D, representing an increase of 29.41% and 26.67%, respectively, when compared with the single models. The correlation coefficients (r) were 0.949 and 0.807, respectively. For axis analysis, the accuracy, specificity, sensitivity, and area under the curve value of the classification model were 0.89, 0.941, 0.882, and 0.814, respectively, and the F1-score was 0.88.

CONCLUSIONS

The FMDLS successfully identified the ocular refraction in sphere, cylinder, and axis, and showed good agreement with the cycloplegic refraction. The RFPs can provide not only comprehensive fundus information but also the refractive state of the eye, highlighting their potential clinical value.

Astigmatism profile in the elderly population: Tehran Geriatric Eye Study

PURPOSE

To determine the prevalence of astigmatism and its associated factors and examine astigmatism symmetry patterns in an elderly population.

STUDY DESIGN

Population based cross-sectional study.

METHODS

The present population-based cross-sectional study was conducted on an elderly population above 60 years of age in Tehran, Iran in 2019. The sampling was done using the stratified multistage random cluster sampling method. All study participants underwent a complete optometric examination and slit-lamp biomicroscopy.

RESULTS

The prevalence of astigmatism higher than -0.50, -1.00, and -2.00 D was 83% (95% CI: 81 -84), 52 % (95% CI: 50 -54), and 19% (95% CI: 17-20), respectively. These prevalence was 79%(95% CI: 77-81), 46(95% CI: 44-49) and 14(95% CI: 13-16) in subjects without a history of ocular surgery, respectively. Based on cylinder power worse than -1.00 D, 10% (95% CI: 9-12), 20% (95% CI: 18-22), and 21% (95% CI:19-23) of study participants had with the rule, against the rule, and oblique astigmatism, respectively. According to the results of the multiple regression model, male gender, older age, low education level, pure posterior subcapsular cataract, pseudophakia, and myopia were independent factors associated with astigmatism. The prevalence of anisorule astigmatism was 57 % (95% CI: 56-59), the most common anisorule astigmatism was against the rule-oblique type with a prevalence of 36% (95% CI: 34-38).

CONCLUSION

The prevalence of astigmatism was high in the elderly population of Tehran. More than half of the participants in this study had anisorule astigmatism, and against the rule-oblique combination was more prevalent than other types. A posterior subcapsular cataract, a history of cataract surgery, and myopia were the associated factors of astigmatism in this study.

Prediction of Subjective Refraction From Anterior Corneal Surface, Eye Lengths, and Age Using Machine Learning Algorithms

Purpose

To develop a machine learning regression model of subjective refractive prescription from minimum ocular biometry and corneal topography features.

Methods

Anterior corneal surface parameters (Zernike coefficients and keratometry), axial length, anterior chamber depth, and age were posed as features to predict subjective refractions. Measurements from 355 eyes were split into training (75%) and test (25%) sets. Different machine learning regression algorithms were trained by 10-fold cross-validation, optimized, and tested. A neighborhood component analysis provided features’ normalized weights in predictions.

Results

Gaussian process regression algorithms provided the best models with mean absolute errors of around 1.00 diopters (D) in the spherical component and 0.15 D in the astigmatic components.

Conclusions

The normalized weights showed that subjective refraction can be predicted by only keratometry, age, and axial length. Increasing the topographic description detail of the anterior corneal surface implied by a high-order Zernike decomposition versus adjustment to a spherocylindrical surface is not reflected as improved subjective refraction prediction, which is poor, mainly in the spherical component. However, the highest achievable accuracy differs by only 0.75 D from that of other works with a more exhaustive eye refractive elements description. Although the chosen parameters may have not been the most efficient, applying machine learning and big data to predict subjective refraction can be risky and impractical when evaluating a particular subject at statistical extremes.

Translational Relevance

This work evaluates subjective refraction prediction by machine learning from the anterior corneal surface and ocular biometry. It shows the minimum biometric information required and the highest achievable accuracy.

RESUMEN

Objetivo

El desarrollo de un modelo de regresión de aprendizaje automático prescripción refractiva subjetiva a partir de las características mínimas de la biometría ocular y la superficie corneal.

Métodos

Los parámetros de la superficie corneal anterior (coeficientes de Zernike y queratometría), además de longitudes axiales y de cámara anterior, edades y las refracciones subjetivas no ciclopléjicas de 355 ojos se dividieron en un conjunto de entrenamiento (75%) y otro de test (25%) y se entrenaron diferentes algoritmos de regresión de aprendizaje automático mediante validación cruzada 10 veces, se optimizaron y se probaron sobre el conjunto test.

Resultados

Los algoritmos de regresión del proceso gaussiano proporcionaron los mejores modelos con un error absoluto medio fue de alrededor de 1.00 D en el componente esférico y de 0.25 D en los componentes astigmáticos.

Conclusiones

Los pesos normalizados mostraron que la refracción subjetiva puede predecirse utilizando únicamente la queratometría, la edad y la longitud axial como características. El aumento del detalle de la descripción topográfica de la superficie corneal anterior que supone una descomposición de Zernike de alto orden frente al ajuste a una superficie esferocilíndrica realizado por queratometría no se refleja en una mejora de la predicción de la refracción subjetiva, que es pobre, en cualquier caso, principalmente en el componente esférico. Sin embargo, la máxima precisión alcanzada difiere en sólo 0,75 D de la de otros trabajos con una descripción más exhaustiva de los elementos refractivos del ojo. De todos modos, el aprendizaje automático y los datos masivos aplicados a la predicción de la refracción subjetiva pueden ser arriesgados y poco prácticos cuando se evalúa a un sujeto concreto en los extremos estadísticos, aunque los parámetros elegidos puedan no haber sido los más ineficaces.

Relevancia Traslativa

El trabajo evalúa la predicción de la refracción subjetiva mediante aprendizaje automático a partir de la superficie corneal anterior y la biometría ocular, mostrando la mínima información biométrica requerida y la máxima precisión alcanzable.
