Central corneal thickness measurement with different devices in keratoconic patients
We read with great interest the article by Aghazadeh Amiri et al. concerning the corneal thickness (CT) measurements with Scheimpflug and slit scanning imaging techniques in keratoconus (KC). We would like to congratulate with the authors for their very interesting paper because it is well known that the measurement of CT is involved in the reliability of intraocular pressure measurements, both...
متن کاملCentral Corneal Thickness Measurement by Ultrasound versus Orbscan II
PURPOSE To compare Orbscan II and ultrasonic pachymetry for measurement of central corneal thickness (CCT) in eyes scheduled for keratorefractive surgery. METHODS CCT was measured using Orbscan II (Bausch & Lomb, USA) and then by ultrasonic pachymetry (Tomey SP-3000, Tomey Ltd, Japan) in 100 eyes of 100 patients with no history of ocular surgery scheduled for excimer laser refractive surgery....
متن کاملCentral Corneal Thickness in Children
Results: A total of 2079 children were included in the study, with ages ranging from birth to 17 years. Included were 807 whites, 494 Hispanics, and 474 African Americans, in addition to Asian, unknown race, and mixed-race individuals. African American children had thinner corneas on average than that of both white and Hispanic children (P .001 for both) by approximately 20 μm. Thicker median C...
متن کاملCentral corneal thickness in Latinos.
PURPOSE To characterize central corneal thickness (CCT) in Latinos aged 40 or more years. METHODS A population-based cohort of Latinos from two census tracts in La Puente, California, underwent measurements of CCT and intraocular pressure (IOP). CCT was measured with an ultrasonic pachymeter, and IOP was measured by applanation tonometry. One eye of each of 1699 participants was included in t...
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...
