Corneal Sensitivity and Dry Eye Symptoms in Patients with Keratoconus
PURPOSE To investigate corneal sensitivity to selective mechanical, chemical, and thermal stimulation and to evaluate their relation to dry eye symptoms in patients with keratoconus. METHODS Corneal sensitivity to mechanical, chemical, and thermal thresholds were determined using a gas esthesiometer in 19 patients with keratoconus (KC group) and in 20 age-matched healthy subjects (control gro...
متن کاملChanges of Corneal Wavefront Aberrations in Dry Eye Patients after Treatment with Artificial Lubricant Drops
Purpose. To evaluate the corneal aberration changes in dry eye patients after treatment with artificial eye drops. Methods. Thirty mild to moderate dry eye patients treated with artificial eye drops and twenty comparable dry eye patients were recruited as controls. Anterior corneal aberrations over 3 mm and 5 mm analytical zones including total, 3rd to 5th high order aberrations (HOAs), spheric...
متن کاملCorneal nerve structure and function in patients with non-sjogren dry eye: clinical correlations.
PURPOSE To evaluate the relationship between the in vivo confocal microscopic (IVCM) morphology of subbasal corneal nerves, corneal sensitivity, and clinical parameters in patients with non-Sjögren dry eye disease (NSDD). METHODS Forty-three patients with NSDD and 14 healthy age- and sex-matched control subjects were included. Each patient underwent an evaluation of ocular surface disease sym...
متن کاملCorneal topographical study of the effect of lacrimal punctum occlusion on corneal surface regularity in dry eye patients.
PURPOSE To compare topographic indices of surface regularity in dry eye patients and in normal subjects (controls) and to investigate the short-term effect of lacrimal punctal plugs on these indices in dry eye patients. METHODS The surface regularity index (SRI) and surface asymmetry index (SAI) of the TMS-2 corneal topographic modelling system were used to evaluate corneal surface regularity...
متن کاملCorneal permeability changes in dry eye disease: an observational study
BACKGROUND Diagnostic tests for dry eye disease (DED), including ocular surface disease index (OSDI), tear breakup time (TBUT), corneal fluorescein staining, and lissamine staining, have great deal of variability. We investigated whether fluorophotometry correlated with previously established DED diagnostic tests and whether it could serve as a novel objective metric to evaluate DED. METHODS ...
