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 کاملUsefulness of infrared thermometry in determining body temperature in mice.
The rectal temperature obtained using a standard electronic thermometer was compared with ear, back skin, tail skin, and sole skin temperatures obtained using an infrared thermometer in B6C3F1 mice. Using both methods, we investigated baseline temperatures, diurnal and 2-week variations in temperatures, and ethanol-induced hypothermia in these body locations. Ear and back temperatures were show...
متن کاملThe computation of temperature rises in the human eye induced by infrared radiation.
Long-term industrial exposure to low levels of infrared radiation has for many years been associated with the development of cataracts; the injury mechanism is widely held to be thermal. A finite element model of the human eye is employed to calculate the temperature rises experienced by the intraocular media when exposed to infrared radiation. The model is used to calculate transient and stead...
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...
