The heritability of corneal hysteresis and ocular pulse amplitude: a twin study.
PURPOSE To examine the roles of genetic and environmental factors in corneal hysteresis and ocular pulse amplitude by performing a classic twin study. DESIGN Cross-sectional twin study. PARTICIPANTS AND/OR CONTROLS Two hundred sixty-four twin pairs: 135 monozygotic (MZ) and 129 dizygotic (DZ). METHODS Corneal hysteresis was measured using the Reichert Ocular Response Analyzer (ORA; Reiche...
متن کاملCorrelation between diurnal variation of intraocular pressure, ocular pulse amplitude and corneal structural properties.
PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to evaluate the fluctuation of intraocular pressure measurements obtained by Goldmann applanation tonometry, dynamic contour tonometry, and corneal compensated non-contact tonometry during office hours in glaucoma and healthy participants. This study also aims at correlating the intraocular pressure fluctuations with fluctuations of corneal hysteresis, cent...
متن کاملOcular pulse amplitude in diabetes mellitus.
BACKGROUND The influence of diabetes mellitus on ocular pulse amplitude (OPA), an indirect measure of choroidal perfusion, is unclear. METHODS OPA, using the Langham ocular blood flow (OBF) system, applanation intraocular pressure (IOP), systemic blood pressure (BP), heart rate, and haemoglobin (Hb) A(1c) were measured in patients with insulin dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM) with no (DR-0,...
متن کاملOcular rigidity, ocular pulse amplitude, and pulsatile ocular blood flow: the effect of intraocular pressure.
PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to characterize the pressure-volume relation in the living human eye, measure the ocular pulse amplitude (OPA), and calculate the corresponding pulsatile ocular blood flow (POBF) in a range of clinically relevant IOP levels. METHODS Fifty patients with cataract (50 eyes) were enrolled in the study. After cannulation of the anterior chamber, a computer-con...
متن کاملWavelet Representation of the Corneal Pulse for Detecting Ocular Dicrotism
PURPOSE To develop a reliable and powerful method for detecting the ocular dicrotism from non-invasively acquired signals of corneal pulse without the knowledge of the underlying cardiopulmonary information present in signals of ocular blood pulse and the electrical heart activity. METHODS Retrospective data from a study on glaucomatous and age-related changes in corneal pulsation [PLOS ONE 9...
