Corneal thickness in eyes with diabetic and nondiabetic neovascularisation.
The corneal thickness was measured in 20 patients with ocular neovascularisation of diabetic and nondiabetic aetiology. Mean corneal thickness (+/- SD) was 0.561 mm (+/- 0.027) and 0.499 mm (+/- 0.029) in the diabetic (n = 11) and the nondiabetic groups (n = 9), respectively (2p less than 0.001). The increased corneal thickness in the diabetic group is comparable to that previously reported in ...
متن کاملIris neovascularisation in eyes with pseudoexfoliation syndrome.
The iris vascular bed of eyes with pseudoexfoliation syndrome has been studied with electron microscopy. Two of the eyes suffered from painful glaucoma, whereas the third showed normal intraocular pressure. The following changes were observed: (1) deposits of pseudoexfoliation material lying adjacent to the endothelial wall; (2) thin vessel basement membrane, sometimes even interrupted; (3) ext...
متن کاملCorneal hysteresis changes in diabetic eyes.
In their recent article, Goldich et al. found that corneal hysteresis (CH), corneal resistance factor (CRF), and central corneal thickness were significantly higher in diabetic eyes than in healthy eyes and CH was claimed to be related to the corneal stiffness. However, we found significantly lower CH values in diabetic eyes than in eyes of healthy subjects. We believe that the statements that ...
متن کاملComparison of Corneal Epithelial and Stromal Thickness Distributions between Eyes with Keratoconus and Healthy Eyes with Corneal Astigmatism ≥2.0 D
PURPOSE To identify corneal epithelial- and stromal-thickness distribution patterns in keratoconus using spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT). PATIENTS AND METHODS We analyzed SD-OCT findings in 20 confirmed cases of keratoconus (group 1) and in 20 healthy subjects with corneal astigmatism ≥ 2 D (group 2). Epithelial and stromal thicknesses were measured at 11 strategic locat...
متن کاملCorneal thickness in dry eyes in an Iraqi population
BACKGROUND Dry eye disorder is a multifactorial disease of the tears and ocular surface that results in discomfort and visual disturbance. Corneal pachymetry becomes increasingly important in refractive surgery, for the accurate assessment of intraocular pressure, and in the preoperative assessment of other ocular surgeries. PURPOSE To assess the effect of dry eye disorder on the central corn...
