Corneal thickness, epithelial thickness and axial length differences in normal and high myopia
BACKGROUND Corneal biometric parameters can possibly be influenced by high myopia (HM). The influence of HM on corneal thickness (CT), epithelial thickness (ET) has not yet been clearly established. The aim of this study is to observe ET, CT and axial length (AL) differences between in normal and subjects with HMs and to investigate factors influencing the corneal biometric parameters and AL, s...
متن کاملCentral corneal thickness in high myopia.
PURPOSE To examine if central corneal thickness (CCT) is different in emmetropia and high myopia. METHODS 57 emmetropic subjects (0 to + 1.5 D) and 48 high myopes (all more than - 6 D in spherical equivalent refraction) were studied. CCT was measured by a Haag-Streit Optical Low-Coherence Reflectometry (OLCR) pachymeter, a recently developed high precision pachymeter with a standard deviation...
متن کاملA prospective study of macular thickness in amblyopic children with unilateral high myopia.
PURPOSE To compare macular thickness of the normal fellow eye to that of the amblyopic eye using optical coherence tomography (OCT) in children with unilateral high myopia. Relationships between macular thickness and magnitude of myopic anisometropia, axial length, and visual acuity (VA) were investigated. METHODS Thirty-one children with a mean age of 9.56 years were recruited. Macular thick...
متن کاملCiliary body thickness and refractive error in children.
PURPOSE To determine whether ciliary body thickness (CBT) is related to refractive error in school-age children. METHODS Fifty-three children, 8 to 15 years of age, were recruited. CBT was measured from anterior segment OCT images (Visante; Carl Zeiss Meditec, Inc., Dublin, CA) at 1 (CBT1), 2 (CBT2) and 3 (CBT3) mm posterior to the scleral spur. Cycloplegic refractive error was measured with ...
متن کاملRefractive surgery for unilateral high myopia in children.
PURPOSE To evaluate the safety and efficacy of refractive surgery in children. METHODS Pediatric patients with unilateral high myopia who were 9 years of age or older were offered refractive surgery to supplement optical correction. The patients and families were informed that the operation may not improve their best-corrected visual acuity. Photorefractive keratectomy (PRK) or laser in situ ...
