Comparison of Goldmann applanation tonometry and Pascal dynamic contour tonometry in relation to central corneal thickness and corneal curvature
摘要: Purpose: The aim of the study was to assess the influence of central corneal thickness (CCT) and corneal curvature in tonometry measurements taken by Goldmann applanation tonometry (GAT) and Pascal dynamic contour tonometry (DCT). Methods: This was a prospective study of 185 eyes from 97 subjects, attending outpatient ophthalmology appointments, who underwent intraocular pressure measurements by GAT and Pascal DCT. CCT and corneal curvature were obtained using ultrasound pachymetry and Orbscan topography, respectively. All measurements were carried out among males and females during the period 2009–2012. Apart from the usual descriptive and exploratory data analysis, one-way analysis of variance and agreement analysis were performed, linear as well as intraclass correlation coefficients were estimated, and multiple scatter and Bland–Altman plots were produced. Results: Mean IOP measurements obtained were 17.21±4.10 mmHg by DCT and 13.23±4.07 mmHg by GAT. Mean difference between the GAT and DCT measurements was 3.88±2.8 mmHg. Mean CCT and corneal curvature were 522.78±52 μm and 43.83±2.9823 D, respectively. Conclusion: Intraocular pressure measured by GAT was consistently lower when compared with DCT, and this difference was greatest with thinner CCT. Flat corneas seem to influence GAT measurements compared to DCT.

COMPARATIVE EVALUATION OF ANTERIOR SEGMENT OPTICAL COHERENCE TOMOGRAPHY, ULTRASOUND BIOMICROSCOPY, AND INTRAOCULAR PRESSURE CHANGES AFTER PANRETINAL PHOTOCOAGULATION BY PASCAL AND CONVENTIONAL LASER
摘要: Purpose: To compare intraocular pressure, anterior segment optical coherence tomography, and ultrasound biomicroscopy parameters over 3 months after panretinal photocoagulation (PRP) for proliferative diabetic retinopathy after 1 of 2 sittings by conventional laser (half PRP) and a single sitting of Pattern Scan Laser (PASCAL) PRP. Methods: This was a prospective, randomized, interventional study. All tests were performed at baseline, and at 1, 6, and 24 hours, and 1, 4, 8, and 12 weeks after PRP. Results: The intraocular pressure at 1 hour and 6 hours after PRP was significantly raised in both groups. Mean intraocular pressure was 21.17 ± 4.01 mmHg after PASCAL and 17.48 ± 3 mmHg after conventional laser at 1 hour, P , 0.001. On anterior segment optical coherence tomography, conventional laser PRP caused a more significant narrowing of angle-opening distance (AOD750) and trabecular-iris space area (TISA 500), P = 0.03 and 0.04, respectively, on Day 1. Ultrasound biomicroscopy showed a significantly narrow angle in both groups on Day 1. A significant increase in ciliary body thickness was observed in both groups, with 57.1% of PASCAL and 100% of conventionally treated eyes showing ciliary effusion on Day 1 that decreased but persisted for the next 3 months. Conclusion: Performing PRP in sittings, prescribing previous glaucoma medications in patients at risk, and recording intraocular pressure an hour after the PRP could decrease complications.
