Corneal Thickness in Patients with Age-related Macular Degeneration
Explore Article jimronline.net (Nov 26 2009)
This observational study was designed to compare corneal thickness in patients with age-related macular degeneration (AMD) with the thickness in healthy control subjects to determine if there is a correlation between corneal thickness and the development of AMD. A total of 69 patients (119 eyes) with AMD and 31 healthy subjects (56 eyes) were evaluated. Corneal thickness was measured with a Galilei⢠Dual Scheimpflug Analyser and retinal thickness was measured using optical coherence tomography. There was no significant difference in mean corneal thickness or mean retinal thickness between the AMD and control groups and no correlation between corneal and retinal ...

PATIENTS AND METHODS: A total of 24 eyes of 12 HD patients and 32 eyes of 16 controls underwent optical coherence tomographic scanning (OCT) in the central disc of 6000 mum in diameter. ...
