The 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...

Corresponding Author: Yan Zhang Department of Ophthalmology, The 2nd Teaching Hospital of Jilin University, 218 Ziqiang Street Changchun 130041, China Email: [email protected] Abstract: Corneal thickness is an important parameter of the structure of an eyeball. Prior to cornea refractive surgery, the measurement of corneal thickness has been given general importance. With the development of m...
متن کاملSCIENTIFIC REPORT The effect of corneal thickness on intraocular pressure measurement in patients with corneal pathology
Background/aim: To compare intraocular pressure (IOP) measurements taken by the Goldmann applanation tonometer, the Tono-Pen and the ocular blood flow pneumotonometer in eyes with varying central corneal thickness (CCT) due to penetrating keratoplasty (PK), keratoconus (KC), and Fuchs’ endothelial dystrophy (FED). Methods: IOP was measured with the Goldmann applanation tonometer, Tono-Pen XL, a...
متن کاملEffects of diabetic keratopathy on corneal optical density, central corneal thickness, and corneal endothelial cell counts
Diabetic keratopathy is an ocular complication that occurs with diabetes. In the present study, the effect of diabetic keratopathy on corneal optical density, central corneal thickness, and corneal endothelial cell count was investigated. One hundred and eighty diabetic patients (360 eyes) were enrolled in the study during the period from March, 2012 to March, 2013. The patients were divided in...
