Refractive error, axial length and anterior chamber depth of the eye in British adults: the EPIC-Norfolk Eye Study.
PURPOSE To describe the distribution, and demographic and socioeconomic correlates of refractive error and related ocular biometry in an older British population. METHODS Refractive error was measured using an auto-refractor without cycloplegia. Pseudophakic individuals and those who had undergone refractive surgery were excluded from analysis. Axial length and anterior chamber depth were mea...

متن کاملIntraocular pressure and corneal biomechanics in an adult British population: the EPIC-Norfolk eye study.
PURPOSE To describe the distribution and determinants of intraocular pressure (IOP) and indices of corneal biomechanics in an adult British population. METHODS Goldmann-equivalent IOP (IOPg), corneal mechanical characteristics (corneal hysteresis, CH; corneal resistance factor, CRF), and IOP adjusted for corneal factors (IOPcc) were measured. Ocular biometric characteristics were also measure...
متن کاملCross Sectional Associations between Socio-Demographic Factors and Cognitive Performance in an Older British Population: The European Investigation of Cancer in Norfolk (EPIC-Norfolk) Study
BACKGROUND Cognition covers a range of abilities, such as memory, response time and language, with tests assessing either specific or generic aspects. However differences between measures may be observed within the same individuals. OBJECTIVE To investigate the cross-sectional association of cognitive performance and socio-demographic factors using different assessment tools across a range of...
