dc.description.abstract | Purpose: To assess the repeatability of central corneal thickness measurement at the geometrical center (Central Corneal Thickness - CCT) given by the Pentacam High Resolution (HR) Comprehensive Eye Scanner (Oculus, Wetzlar, Germany) over time. Methods: Prospective, single center, observational study. Two separate CCT measurements were taken by the Pentacam corneal tomography exam (CTm) 3 to 12 months apart, and compared. Results: One hundred and sixteen eyes (n=116) of 62 health patients were included in this study. Average CCT in first and last visits was 541.6 +/- 37 mu m and 543.6 +/- 36.9 mu m respectively. Mean difference between both measurements was 9.2 +/- 6.4 mu m, and there was no statistically significant difference in CCT measurement between visits, with good correlation between them (P = 0.057, r(2) = 0,9209). Conclusion: Pentacam (HR) CTm gives repeatable CCT measurements over time. | en |
