Posterior corneal aberrations and their compensation effects on anterior corneal aberrations in keratoconic eyes.
PURPOSE To characterize posterior corneal aberrations in keratoconic (KC) eyes and investigate compensatory effects between anterior and posterior corneal surfaces. METHODS The corneal topography of 113 eyes (37 advanced KC, 31 moderate KC, 14 mild KC, and 31 normal eyes) was used to compute the corneal aberrations. The central 6-mm diameter of both anterior and posterior corneal topographies...
متن کاملCorneal Pachymetry measured with Pentacam and CorvisST in Normal and Keratoconic Eyes
Purpose: To evaluate the agreement of pachymetry data provided by a new instrument to measure intraocular pressure (IOP) and the corneal biomechanical response with the values provided by Pentacam in healthy and keratoconic eyes. Methods: Fifty-four right eyes from 54 healthy patients (32 females, 22 males) and 82 eyes from 43 keratoconus patients (20 females, 23 males) were included in the stu...
متن کاملCorneal biomechanical properties in normal, regular astigmatic, and keratoconic eyes
Corneal hysteresis (CH) is a parameter which measures the viscoelastic behaviour of the cornea, indicating its biomechanical integrity1. Some clinical conditions such as keratoconus, Fuchs corneal dystrophy, high myopia, glaucoma and corneal refractive surgery, may induce changes in corneal biomechanical properties, leading to a decrease in CH2-6. Astigmatism, a refractive error related to corn...
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...
متن کاملCorneal Biomechanical Assessment Using Corneal Visualization Scheimpflug Technology in Keratoconic and Normal Eyes
Purpose. To compare the corneal biomechanical properties of keratoconic patients and age-matched controls using corneal visualization Scheimpflug technology (Corvis ST). Methods. Sixty keratoconic eyes from 47 keratoconus patients and 60 normal eyes from 60 controls were enrolled in this prospective study. Tomography and biomechanical parameters of all eyes were obtained with the Pentacam and C...
