Analysis of the horizontal corneal diameter, central corneal thickness, and axial length in premature infants.
PURPOSE To determine the horizontal corneal diameter, central corneal thickness, and axial length in premature infants. METHODS Infants with a birth weight of less than 2,500 g or with a gestation period of less than 36 weeks were included in the study. Infants with retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) were allocated to Group 1 (n=138), while those without ROP were allocated to Group 2 (n=236). A...
متن کاملCorneal diameter in premature infants.
The size of the cornea is important in the diagnosis of primary infantile glaucoma. Reference values regarding eyes of premature infants are scarce. Such data are of special importance in areas such as the Middle East where infantile glaucoma is common and often evident already at birth. The authors have measured the horizontal corneal diameter of the eyes of 127 premature Saudi infants with a ...
متن کاملEffect of central corneal thickness, corneal curvature, and axial length on applanation tonometry.
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the effect of central corneal thickness (CCT), corneal curvature, and axial length on applanation tonometry in an in vivo study. METHODS In a masked, prospective clinical trial, we examined 125 eyes of 125 patients scheduled for cataract surgery. Corneal curvature was measured by means of keratometry and axial length by A-scan ultrasonography. By cannulating the anterior...
متن کاملRelationship between central corneal thickness, refractive error, corneal curvature, anterior chamber depth and axial length.
BACKGROUND To determine the relationship between central corneal thickness (CCT), refractive error, corneal curvature, anterior chamber depth and axial length in normal Taiwanese Chinese adults. METHODS Five hundred normal Taiwanese Chinese patients aged 40-80 years were recruited for the study. Measurement procedures included CCT, refractive error, corneal curvature, anterior chamber depth a...
متن کاملComparison of Central Corneal Thickness Measured through Pentacam, OCTCasia2, and Orbscan IIz in Normal Individuals
Purpose: To compare the central corneal thickness measured through Pentacam, OCTCasia2, and Orbscan IIz in normal individuals. Methods: In this cross sectional comparative study, the researcher investigated the eyes of 70 normal candidates (140 eyes) with the mean age of 31.42 ± 7.70, referring to Dr. Sedaghat eye clinic for refractive surgery. For each person, Central Corneal Thickness (CCT) w...
