purpose : to compare intraocular pressure (iop) readings measured by the ocular response analyzer (ora) with those measured by the goldmann applanation tonometer (gat) in keratoconic eyes following penetrating keratoplasty (pkp) and evaluate the influence of anatomical and biomechanical properties of the grafts on the iop measurements methods : in this cross-sectional study conducted on 45 kera...

PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to evaluate the fluctuation of intraocular pressure measurements obtained by Goldmann applanation tonometry, dynamic contour tonometry, and corneal compensated non-contact tonometry during office hours in glaucoma and healthy participants. This study also aims at correlating the intraocular pressure fluctuations with fluctuations of corneal hysteresis, cent...

purpose: to compare corneal biomechanical properties and intraocular pressure (iop) in eyes with pseudophakic bullous keratopathy (pbk) before and after descemet stripping automated endothelial keratoplasty (dsaek). methods: this prospective non-randomizedintrasubject comparative study was conducted on 44eyes of 22 patients with the diagnosis ofpbk who underwent dsaek in one eye.intraocular pre...

Methods: Ten eyes of 10 patients aged 26.5 6 5.7 (mean 6 SD) years with progressive keratoconus were treated with UV-A– riboflavin CXL and assessed with the Ocular Response Analyzer (ORA) that measured corneal hysteresis (CH), corneal resistance factor (CRF), Goldmann-correlated intraocular pressure (IOPg), and corneal compensated intraocular pressure (IOPcc). Intraocular pressure was also meas...

purpose: to evaluate corneal hysteresis and corneal resistance factor in penetrating keratoplasty grafts in a group of keratoconic eyes using the ocular response analyzer (ora) and to evaluate the relationship between donor size, donor-recipient disparity and central graft thickness (cgt), and ora parameters. methods: this cross-sectional study was conducted on 34 eyes of 34 keratoconus patient...

introduction: this study aimed to investigate the diurnal intraocular pressure fluctuations under dehydration conditions and the relationship between the intraocular pressure fluctuations and blood pressure. methods: the intraocular pressures (iop), body weights, as well as systolic and diastolic blood pressures (sbp, dbp) of 36 fasting healthy volunteers were recorded at 8:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m...

PURPOSE The purpose of this work was to investigate the heritability of potential glaucoma endophenotypes. We estimated for the first time the heritability of the pulsatility of choroidal blood flow. We also sought to confirm the heritability of corneal hysteresis, central corneal thickness, and 3 ways of measuring intraocular pressure. METHODS Measurements were performed on 96 first-degree r...

BACKGROUND To compare the intraocular pressure readings obtained with the iCare rebound tonometer and the 7CR non-contact tonometer with those measured by Goldmann applanation tonometry in treated glaucoma patients. DESIGN A prospective, cross-sectional study was conducted in a private tertiary glaucoma clinic. PARTICIPANTS OR SAMPLES One hundred nine (54 males : 55 females) patients includ...

Authors evaluate application of mitomycin C (0.2-0.4 mg/ml) on the sclera during glaucoma filtering surgery. Mean follow up was 19.5 months in the group of 67 patients (75 eyes). The most serious complication was an early endophthalmitis in 2 cases with the loss of residual visual field and vision, 1x hemophthalmus followed with development of traction retinal detachment, 1x hypotonic maculopat...

AIMS To investigate the feasibility and to compare three devices measuring intraocular pressure (IOP) in mucopolysaccharidosis patients (MPS): iCare rebound tonometer (RT), Perkins applanation tonometer (PAT) and ocular response analyzer (ORA). METHODS MPS patients who underwent at least two examinations out of: RT, PAT and ORA at the same visit were identified and retrospectively analyzed in...
