Increased central corneal thickness may skew IOP measurements in diabetic eyes J Glaucoma. 2010;19:613-616. Issue: February 25, 2011. Add topic to email alerts ...

Of 188 patients, 105 (55.9 percent) had a measurement-significant adjustment in their IOP measurements, with 67 patients (35.6 percent) having adjustments between 1.5 and 3.0 mm Hg, with 38 ...

To determine whether adjusting corneal hysteresis (CH) values for central corneal thickness (CCT) and intraocular pressure (IOP) improves its capability to differentiate primary open-angle ...

Corneal thickness measurements in the aphakic eyes of pediatric patients were significantly higher than the measurements in their phakic fellow eyes, a study found. The finding may be helpful in ...

May 11, 2009 (Fort Lauderdale, Florida) — The dynamic contour tonometer (DCT) gives a repeatable and reproducible measure of intraocular pressure (IOP) on central corneal thickness that is ...

In a new study, researchers at Columbia University Medical Center demonstrated the significance of central corneal thickness ... Corrected IOP = Measured IOP – (CCT-545/50 X 2.5 mm Hg).

"For instance, suppose a 65-year-old patient has an IOP of 18, 17, and 19 mm Hg in his right eye over 3 visits, a cup-to-disc ratio of 0.8, a mean central corneal thickness of 570 μm, a pattern ...

Pachymetry measures the thickness of the cornea. During the test, a provider will gently touch a small probe to the eye to ...
