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...
متن کاملCorrelation between central corneal thickness, applanation tonometry, and direct intracameral IOP readings.
BACKGROUND Several authors reported incorrect high intraocular pressure (IOP) values in eyes with a thick cornea using applanation tonometry. This hypothesis was checked by comparing applanation tonometry with direct intracameral manometry. METHODS 73 patients, scheduled for intraocular surgery, were enrolled. Immediately before surgery, the following were registered: (i) central corneal thic...
متن کاملCentral 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 and Peripheral Corneal Thickness Measurement in Normal and Keratoconic Eyes Using Three Corneal Pachymeters
PURPOSE To assess the agreement among ultrasonic pachymetry, the Galilei dual Scheimpflug analyzer, and Orbscan II for central and peripheral (Galilei vs. Orbscan) corneal thickness (CCT and PCT) measurement in normal and keratoconic eyes. METHODS In this prospective study, CCT and PCT were measured in 88 eyes of 88 refractive surgery candidates and 128 eyes of 69 keratoconic patients with ul...
