Evaluation of corneal biomechanics with a high- speed Scheimpflug camera before and after cataract surgery: the role of intraocular pressure
نویسنده
چکیده
METHODS: Prospective, longitudinal cohort study conducted between October 2012 and October 2013. Thirty-three eyes from 33 patients (20 females, 13 males; mean age = 73 ± 7 years) were included in the study, and underwent phacoemulsification followed by pseudophakic intraocular lens (IOL) implantation. All patients were evaluated with a high-speed Scheimpflug camera (Corvis ST, Oculus, Wetzlar, Germany) before, and 5 to 8 months after surgery. Statistical analysis was performed by paired sample t-test and Pearson correlation coefficient using SPSS v.20.

Background and Objective: Proper method and machine for corneal evaluation is an important factor in many anterior segment interventions. This study was performed to compare the mean keratometry (K) readings obtained with an IOL Master and Pentacam for intraocular lens power calculation in normal subjects with no history of refractive surgery. Materials and Methods: Mean K values were obtained ...

The aim of the present study was to evaluate the effects of femtosecond laser-assisted cataract surgery (FLACS) and phacoemulsification on corneal biomechanics using corneal visualization Scheimpflug technology. The medical records of 50 eyes from 50 patients who received phacoemulsification and intraocular lens implantation because of age-related factors between June 2014 and September 2014 we...

Abstract Background: Providing better surgical conditions with meticulous control of Intraocular Pressure (IOP) is one of the most important factors that affect the success rate in ophthalmic surgery. Clonidine is a selective central α2 agonist with analgesic, antianxiety and sedative effects which makes it a good choice in premedication recently. In this study, we compared the effects of oral...

PURPOSE To quantify the effect of small incision lenticule extraction (SMILE) on the corneal biomechanics using Scheimpflug noncontact tonometer (Corvis ST). METHODS Twenty eyes of twenty patients, evaluated as eligible for surgery, with high myopia and/or moderate myopic astigmatism, underwent small incision lenticule extraction (SMILE). All patients underwent Corvis ST preoperatively and po...
