Validity of Tono-pachymetry for Measuring Corrected Intraocular Pressure in Non-surgical and Post-photorefractive Keratectomy Eyes
PURPOSE To assess the validity of central corneal thickness (CCT) and corrected intraocular pressure (IOP) values obtained by tono-pachymetry in non-surgical and post-photorefractive keratectomy (PRK) eyes. METHODS For the study, 108 young healthy participants and 108 patients who had PRK were enrolled. Measurements were randomly performed by tono-pachymetry, ultrasonic (US) pachymetry, and G...
متن کاملPhotorefractive keratectomy in 621 myopic eyes.
xcimer laser photorefractive keratectomy (PRK) has been used for some years all over the world. It was introduced to Kuwait in October 1994; 621 eyes had PRK for myopia with and without astigmatic error between October 1994 and June 1996. Refractive correction was successfully achieved within ±0.50 diopters (D) in 80% of eyes. Uncorrected visual acuity of 0.8 (20/25) or better was achieved in 7...
متن کاملIntraocular lens power calculation for cataract surgery after photorefractive keratectomy.
OBJECTIVE To assess intraocular lens (IOL) power calculations in patients undergoing cataract surgery after excimer laser photorefractive keratectomy (PRK) for myopia. METHODS Four eyes of two patients underwent phacoemulsification with IOL implantation after PRK for myopia. The estimated refractive error that would have been induced had the IOL predicted for emmetropia been implanted was cal...
متن کاملTono-Pen tonometry in normal and in post-keratoplasty eyes.
Oculab Tono-Pen tonometry was compared with Goldmann applanation tonometry in 82 eyes of 82 patients with normal corneas and in 54 eyes of 54 patients who had undergone penetrating keratoplasty and whose corneas did not preclude the use of Goldmann tonometer. We found that the intraocular pressure (IOP) in 48% of the eyes with normal corneas and in 57% after keratoplasty has different measureme...
متن کاملTonometric changes of latanoprost-induced intraocular pressure reduction after photorefractive keratectomy.
PURPOSE To assess whether tonometric measurements of the drop in intraocular pressure (IOP) induced by 0.005% latanoprost are modified after photorefractive keratectomy (PRK). METHODS Data from 24 randomly selected eyes of 24 patients (12 men and 12 women, mean age +/- SD: 31.7 +/- 6.2 years) who were undergoing bilateral PRK for myopia (-6.38 +/- 2.26 D) were obtained. Objective refraction, ...
