Relationship of age and refraction to central corneal thickness.
PURPOSE To obtain descriptive statistics of central corneal thickness (CCT) in a large population of normal eyes undergoing refractive surgery and study the relationship of 2 variables, age and refraction, with CCT. SETTING Cornea and Laser Eye Institute, Hersh Vision Group, Teaneck, NJ. METHODS The CCT of 5158 patients was measured using an ultrasound pachymeter. Age and preoperative spher...
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 کاملThe correlation between IOP measurement, central corneal thickness and corneal curvature.
In a prospective study we measured the intraocular pressure (IOP), the central corneal thickness (CCT) and the central corneal curvature in 172 myopic eyes before and after LASIK treatment. We find a significant decrease in intraocular pressure. Statistical evaluation reveals a linear correlation between the IOP decrease and the amount of stromal ablation. The IOP and corneal curvature are meas...
متن کاملA Clinical Study on the Correlation Between Axial Length, Intraocular Pressure and Central Corneal Thickness in Myopic Eyes
Introduction: Myopia or short sightedness, is that form of refractive error wherein parallel rays of light come to a focus in front of the sentient layer of the retina when the eye is at rest; the eye is thus relatively too large, and the condition is the opposite to that of hypermetropia. Aims and objectives of the research were to find out whether there is a correlation between axial length, ...
متن کاملAnalysis 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...
