Biomechanical stabilisation of ocular measurements post cataract surgery

1 December 2017 | | Oculoplastics, Orbit | Automated refraction, cataract, central corneal thickness, keratometry, ocular biometric parameters

This prospective study looks into the time duration of biomechanical stabilisation post uneventful cataract surgery in a case series of 62 consecutive eyes in patients with no ocular or systemic comorbidity. The patients were followed-up at fixed intervals of one...

Short-term effects of intravitreal bevacizumab on the cornea

1 December 2014 | | Cornea / External Eye Disease | anterior chamber depth, bevacizumab, central corneal thickness, intraocular pressure, iridocorneal angle, simulated keratometry

Bevacizumab has been extensively used to treat macula oedema and neovascularisation of the retina and it has also been useful in the management of corneal neovascular diseases. This prospective study aimed to provide more information on the effect bevacizumab may...

Pentacam vs. IOL Master keratometry measurement in IOL power calculations

1 June 2014 | | Ophthalmology | IOL Master keratometry, Pentacam, Scheimpflug, equivalent keratometry reading

The IOL Master measures only the anterior corneal curvature and estimates the total corneal power by assuming a fixed relationship between the anterior and posterior corneal surface. The Pentacam measures both the anterior and posterior corneal surface and therefore calculates...
