The Relationship between Corneal Biomechanics and Corneal Shape in Normal Myopic Eyes
Introduction In a broad review, evidence that the corneal biomechanical properties influence the results and outcomes of various ocular measurements and procedures has existed for some time [1,2]. However, assessing the biomechanical properties of corneal tissue in vivo has previously not been possible. With the recent introduction of the Reichert Ocular Response Analyzer (ORA), direct clinical...
متن کاملCorneal Biomechanics Determination in Healthy Myopic Subjects
Purpose. To determine the corneal biomechanical properties by using the Ocular Response Analyzer™ and to investigate potential factors associated with the corneal biomechanics in healthy myopic subjects. Methods. 135 eyes from 135 healthy myopic subjects were included in this cross-sectional observational study. Cornea hysteresis (CH), corneal resistance factor (CRF), cornea-compensated intraoc...
متن کاملCorneal biomechanics in asymmetrical normal-tension glaucoma
PURPOSE We aimed to assess corneal biomechanics using the ocular response analyzer in patients with normal-tension glaucoma (NTG), and to evaluate the relationship between corneal biomechanics and visual field loss. METHODS This was a prospective observational case series including patients with bilateral asymmetric NTG. For all patients, corneal hysteresis (CH), corneal resistance factor (CR...
متن کاملMyopic versus hyperopic eyes: axial length, corneal shape and optical aberrations.
This study investigated differences in geometrical properties and optical aberrations between a group of hyperopes and myopes (age-matched 30.3+/-5.2 and 30.5+/-3.8 years old, respectively, and with similar absolute refractive error 3.0+/-2.0 and -3.3+/-2.0, respectively). Axial length (AL) was measured by means of optical biometry, and corneal apical radius of curvature (CR) and asphericity (Q...
متن کاملOptimum corneal asphericity of myopic eyes for refractive surgery
In this work, an improvement to the Munnerlyn formula used in refractive surgery is proposed by selecting the final corneal asphericity. A theoretical optical analysis has been performed by adopting the RMS (root mean square) spot size as a merit function. Two different sets of myopes having refractive errors ranging up to 7D have been tested. The results show that a corneal asphericity of arou...
