Comparison of Central Corneal Thickness Measured through Pentacam, OCTCasia2, and Orbscan IIz in Normal Individuals
Purpose: To compare the central corneal thickness measured through Pentacam, OCTCasia2, and Orbscan IIz in normal individuals. Methods: In this cross sectional comparative study, the researcher investigated the eyes of 70 normal candidates (140 eyes) with the mean age of 31.42 ± 7.70, referring to Dr. Sedaghat eye clinic for refractive surgery. For each person, Central Corneal Thickness (CCT) w...
متن کاملCorneal Pachymetry measured with Pentacam and CorvisST in Normal and Keratoconic Eyes
Purpose: To evaluate the agreement of pachymetry data provided by a new instrument to measure intraocular pressure (IOP) and the corneal biomechanical response with the values provided by Pentacam in healthy and keratoconic eyes. Methods: Fifty-four right eyes from 54 healthy patients (32 females, 22 males) and 82 eyes from 43 keratoconus patients (20 females, 23 males) were included in the stu...
متن کاملGlaucoma anterior chamber morphometry based on optical Scheimpflug images.
PURPOSE To compare the performance of gonioscopy and noncontact morphometry with anterior chamber tomography (High Resolution Pentacam - HR) using optical Scheimpflug images in the evaluation of the anterior chamber angle (ACA). METHODS Transversal study. 112 eyes from 74 subjects evaluated at the Glaucoma Department, Fluminense Federal University, underwent gonioscopy and Pentacam HR. Using ...
متن کاملPentacam keratometric values unreliable for IOL power calculation after refractive surgery.
Pentacam Keratometric Values Unreliable for IOL Power Calculation After Refractive Surgery To the Editor: We read with interest the article by Gonen et al,1 which appeared in the August 2012 issue of the Journal of Refractive Surgery, on their study comparing keratometric data from 200 patients evaluated for refractive surgery using four different devices—an automated keratometer (KR 8800 [Topc...
متن کاملCentral Corneal Thickness in Highly Myopic Eyes: Inter-device Agreement of Ultrasonic Pachymetry, Pentacam and Orbscan II Before and After Photorefractive Keratectomy
PURPOSE To determine inter-device agreement for central corneal thickness (CCT) measurement among ultrasound pachymetry, rotating Scheimpflug imaging (Pentacam, Oculus, Wetzlar, Germany), and scanning slit corneal topography (Orbscan II, Bausch & Lomb, Rochester, NY, USA) in highly myopic eyes before and after photorefractive keratectomy (PRK). METHODS This prospective comparative study inclu...
