Corneal biomechanics and glaucoma beyond the bidirectional impact of intraocular pressure and corneal deformation response

Rev. bras. oftalmol; 81 (), 2022
ABSTRACT The purpose of this study was to highlight the impact of biomechanical corneal response in available in vivo tonometry methods for glaucoma management. Systematic review of non-contact air-puff tonometers that analyzes the corneal deformation response, with special focus on the investigation of ...

Iris cyst and atypical complications

Rev. bras. oftalmol; 80 (3), 2021
ABSTRACT The authors report the case of a male adult presenting significant ocular complications and irreversible visual impairment, resulting from the long-term progression and late diagnosis of an iris cyst in the right eye, probably secondary to trauma. The patient was admitted to Hospital Universitá...

Does obesity affect intraocular pressure during laparoscopic surgery?

Arq. bras. oftalmol; 82 (3), 2019
ABSTRACT Purpose: Obesity is accepted as a risk factor for postoperative visual loss due to possible perioperative elevations in intraocular pressure. This study investigated whether intraocular pressure changes differed according to the body mass index of patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectom...

Estudo comparativo entre as medidas da pressão ocular dos tonômetros de rebote, pneumático e de Goldmann

Rev. bras. oftalmol; 78 (3), 2019
RESUMO Objetivo: Comparar o resultado entre dois tipos de tonômetros, tendo como padrão ouro a tonometria de aplanação, relacionando com a espessura corneana e suas validações como instrumentos de rastreio populacional. Métodos: Estudo transversal comparativo, realizado com 400 olhos do ambulat...

Ocular abnormalities in morbid obesity

Arq. bras. oftalmol; 82 (1), 2019
ABSTRACT Purpose: Obesity is associated with eye diseases, but the underlying structural changes and pathogenic mechanisms have not been examined in detail. Here, we assessed the effects of morbid obesity on the morphometric indices of eye disease. Methods: Morbidly obese volunteers (n=101, body mass i...

Comparison of intraocular pressure measurements between Icare PRO Tonometer, Goldmann Applanation Tonometer and non-contact tonometer in healthy and glaucomatous eyes

Rev. bras. oftalmol; 77 (5), 2018
Abstract Purpose: To validate the comparative measurements of intraocular pressure performed with IcarePRO tonometer (IPT) in relation to Goldmann applanation tonometer (GAT) and non-contact tonometer (NCT), as well as to evaluate the influence of central corneal thickness (CCT) on these values. Method...

Oftalmia simpática

Rev. bras. oftalmol; 77 (5), 2018
Resumo Relatar um caso de um paciente portador de Oftalmia Simpática (OS), com descolamento seroso da retina documentado através de tomografia de coerência óptica de domínio spectral (SD OCT), indocianina verde (ICG) e angiofluoreceinografia (AGF), que o diagnóstico foi realizado em uma consulta de...

Análise da variação da pressão intraocular após injeção intravítrea de ranibizumabe

Rev. bras. oftalmol; 77 (1), 2018
Resumo Objetivo: O tratamento com anti-angiogêncios é uma das modalidades mais utilizadas em patologias relacionadas ao edema macular. A injeção intravítrea de um inibidor do VEGF-A tem alta efetividade, porém está relacionada com efeitos adversos, como o aumento da pressão intraocular. O objeti...
