To study the keratometry of Indian pediatric eyes, effect speculum on reading, concordance hand held and automated unilateral bilateral cataract IOL power calculation. This was conducted as a cross- sectional observational 101 eyes children in age range 41 post-conceptional weeks to 144 months. All cooperative patients were subject followed by using keratometer with without speculum. Hand docum...

OBJECTIVES To report the keratometry data of pediatric cataractous eyes (randomly selected single eye of bilateral cases; cataractous eye of unilateral cases) and to compare the keratometry data of the unilateral cataractous eye with the corresponding noncataractous fellow eye. METHODS Retrospective review of preoperative data of patients who had undergone cataract surgery before 18 years of ...

AIMS To investigate the ability of a telecentric keratometer to describe the asphericity and curvature of convex ellipsoidal surfaces and human corneas. METHODS 22 conicoidal convex surfaces and 30 human corneas were examined by conventional keratometry. Additional keratometric measurements were made when the surface was tilted in the horizontal plane relative to the instrument optical axis. ...

We compared one-year outcomes of conventional (3 mW/cm(2), 365-nm ultraviolet-A light, 30 minutes) and accelerated (18 mW/cm(2), 365-nm ultraviolet-A light, 5 minutes) collagen crosslinking (CXL) in patients with progressive keratoconus. Main outcome measures were change in keratometry, uncorrected visual acuity (UCVA), and best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA). Nineteen patients in each group co...

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the interchangeability of a Scheimpflug camera (Pentacam, Oculus) and a partial coherence interferometry keratometer (IOLMaster, Zeiss) for measures of keratometry and anterior chamber depth (ACD). A particular focus was to determine which Pentacam keratometry value best correlates with the IOLMaster and if these results can be used interchangeably in clinical practice. ...

purpose: to evaluate ocular biometric changes after phacotrabeculectomy and its effect on intraocular lens power calculation. methods: twenty six eligible eyes (24 patients) underwent phacotrabeculectomy. they were reexamined at least 6 months after the operation in a historical cohort study. main outcome measures included axial length (al) with contact a- scan (us-8000, nidek, gamaguri, japan)...

purpose: to evaluate agreement between galilei, orbscan ii, and placido disk-based topography in terms of keratometry readings, and anterior and posterior elevation. methods: in this prospective comparative study, 184 eyes of 92 keratorefractive surgery candidates were evaluated with galilei, orbscan ii, and placido disk-based topography. keratometry readings and anterior and posterior elevatio...

PURPOSE We determined if the Impact of Vision Impairment (IVI) is a valid questionnaire to measure the vision-related quality of life (VRQoL) in keratoconus patients, and investigated if the VRQoL varied with disease severity in this sample. METHODS WE RECRUITED 160 CONSECUTIVE BILATERAL KERATOCONUS PATIENTS (MEAN AGE 23.3 YEARS, 63% MALE) FROM AN INDIAN TERTIARY EYE CARE CENTER. PARTICIPANTS...

PURPOSE To determine the distribution of anterior eye biometry indices, such as keratometry pachymetry, anterior chamber depth (ACD), pupil diameter, and corneal diameter, as measured by Orbscan instrument in a young Iranian population. METHODS A cross-sectional study was conducted, and subjects were selected through multistage cluster sampling from the students of Mashhad University of Medic...
