چکیده

purpose : to evaluate corneal visco-elasticity and intraocular pressure (iop) changes measured by an ocular response analyzer (ora) after scleral buckling methods : fifty-six eyes with history of scleral buckling surgery three months ago were included in the study. corneal hysteresis (ch), corneal resistance factor (crf), corneal-compensated iop (iopcc) and goldmann-correlated iop (iopg) were measured by ora 3 month postoperatively. in each group, unoperated (normal) eye was the control eye and operated eye was the case eye. results : twenty-seven eyes underwent buckling with encircling elements (group 1) and 29 eyes with segmental sponge (group 2). the mean (±sd) crf in group 1 was 8.74±2.05 in operated eyes and 9.19±1.96 in control contralateral eyes, with no significant difference between them (p=0.412). in group 2 the mean (±sd) crf was 8.14±1.95 in contralateral eyes and 9.38±2.1 in control eyes and the difference was statistically significant (p=0.024). in group 1 there was no significant difference between mean ch of cases and controls (p=0.286), but statistically significant difference between mean ch of cases and controls in group 2 (p=0.044). there were no significant differences between iopg and iopcc of cases and controls in two groups. conclusion : mean crf and ch measurements were significantly lower after scleral buckling with segmental sponge, but no significant change in encircling procedure was observed. also no significant change in iopg and iopcc in any kind of scleral buckling technique occurred postoperatively. it seems that hysteresis and crf may measure different biomechanical aspects of ocular rigidity and are likely to be useful additional measurements in the assessment of ocular rigidity when measuring iop.    iranian journal of ophthalmology 201325(2):151-154 © 2013 by the iranian society of ophthalmology

Evaluation of Corneal Biomechanical Properties Following Penetrating Keratoplasty Using the Ocular Response Analyzer

PURPOSE To evaluate corneal biomechanical properties in eyes that had previously undergone penetrating keratoplasty (PK) using the ocular response analyzer (ORA). METHODS We recruited 26 patients who had received unilateral PK. Corneal hysteresis (CH), corneal resistance factor (CRF), Goldmann-correlated intraocular pressure (IOPg), and cornea-compensated intraocular pressure (IOPcc) were mea...

Evaluation of the influence of corneal biomechanical properties on intraocular pressure measurements using the ocular response analyzer.

PURPOSE The Ocular Response Analyzer (ORA) proposes to measure corneal biomechanical properties in vivo by monitoring and analyzing the corneal behavior when this structure is submitted to a force induced by an air jet. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the relationship between corneal biomechanical properties and corneal-compensated intraocular pressure (IOPCC) measurements as obtained...

Ocular circulatory changes following scleral buckling procedures.

The effect of segmental scleral buckling (SB) on ocular circulation was evaluated by measurements of the ocular pulse amplitude (PA) and the ophthalmic artery pressure (OAP). In this study the OAP was defined as the intraocular pressure (IOP) at which the PA disappeared during increasing IOP. Twenty four patients with unilateral rhegmatogenous retinal detachment who underwent SB of varying exte...

Corneal thickness- and age-related biomechanical properties of the cornea measured with the ocular response analyzer.

PURPOSE The Ocular Response Analyzer (ORA) is a new instrument that measures the corneal biomechanical response (corneal hysteresis, CH) to rapid indentation by an air jet. CH is the difference in applanation pressures (P1, P2) between the rising and falling phases of the air jet. The investigation had two parts: a characterization study and a validation study. In the characterization study, th...

Assessment of corneal biomechanical properties and intraocular pressure with the Ocular Response Analyzer in childhood myopia.

BACKGROUND/AIMS The authors estimated the association between corneal biomechanical properties and axial length in myopic children and verified the relationship between axial length and intraocular pressure (IOP). METHODS This cross-sectional study included 126 eyes of 63 children, aged 12.02+/-3.19 years. Corneal hysteresis (CH), corneal resistance factor (CRF), central corneal thickness (CC...
