Subjects:	Objectives: To evaluate anterior segment parameters measured by dual Scheimpflug corneal topography in pseudoexfoliative glaucoma (PEXG) primary angle-closure glaucoma (PACG) and healthy eyes. Materials and Methods: One hundred forty-three eyes of 86 patients were included in this study. Forty-seven eyes of 38 patients with PEXG 30 eyes of 15 patients with PACG and 66 eyes of 33 healthy subjects were evaluated. Patients who underwent previous ophthalmic surgery and contact lens wearers were excluded. After full ophthalmological examination mean central corneal thickness (CCT) white-to-white horizontal corneal diameter (WTW) pupillary diameter (PD) anterior chamber volume (ACV) anterior chamber depth (ACD) and mean anterior chamber angle were measured by dual Scheimpflug corneal topography and compared between the three groups. Statistical analyses were done using Statistical Package for Social Sciences for Windows 18.0 program. Results: No statistical difference was found in mean age or gender among the study groups (p>0.05). There were also no statistical differences in CCT WTW or PD among the groups (p=0.568 p=0.064 p=0.321 respectively).
