Corneal thickness in pseudoexfoliative glaucoma.
Measurements of central cornea thickness (CCT) have a very important value in glaucoma patients; if the central cornea is thinner than it suggests, then the intraocular pressure is falsely low. This study compares the central cornea thickness between patients with pseudoexfoliative glaucoma, open angle glaucoma, angle closure glaucoma and control group. This study included 34 patients with pseu...
متن کاملCorneal hysteresis changes in diabetic eyes.
In their recent article, Goldich et al. found that corneal hysteresis (CH), corneal resistance factor (CRF), and central corneal thickness were significantly higher in diabetic eyes than in healthy eyes and CH was claimed to be related to the corneal stiffness. However, we found significantly lower CH values in diabetic eyes than in eyes of healthy subjects. We believe that the statements that ...
متن کاملChanges in Anterior Chamber Depth after Phacoemulsification in Pseudoexfoliative Eyes and their Effect on Accuracy of Intraocular Lens Power Calculation
OBJECTIVES To compare anterior chamber depth (ACD) changes after phacoemulsification surgery in patients with pseudoexfoliation syndrome (PEX) and normal patients using an anterior segment imaging method. Another aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of these changes on the accuracy of intraocular lens (IOL) power calculation and postoperative refraction. MATERIALS AND METHODS Twenty-t...
متن کاملPhacoemulsification in eyes with corneal opacification.
We describe a technique in which transcorneal illumination with a fiber-optic light probe is used to safely perform phacoemulsification in cataractous eyes with dense corneal opacification. The technique was used in 3 eyes of 3 patients. No surgical complications occurred, and all eyes had improved visual acuity. Indications and further refinement of the technique and instrumentation are discus...
متن کاملChanges in Irregular Corneal Astigmatism With Age in Eyes With and Without Cataract Surgery.
PURPOSE To investigate the changes in irregular and regular corneal astigmatism with age in eyes that underwent cataract surgery (surgery group) and in eyes that did not undergo surgery (nonsurgery group). METHODS We enrolled 120 eyes in each of four age groups in the surgery and nonsurgery groups: (1) 50 to 59 years of age, (2) 60 to 69 years of age, (3) 70 to 79 years of age, and (4) older ...
