Purpose. The aim of the study is to investigate the biomechanical properties of the cornea before and after FemtoLASIK in patients with myopia. Material and methods. 24 patients (42 eyes) underwent refractive vision correction using the FemtoLASIK method. The Oculus CORVIS ST ® device (Oculus, Germany) was used to assess the biomechanical properties of the cornea. Results. A statistically significant decrease in the rigidity and strength of the cornea was noted after keratorefractive surgery. Conclusion. Refractive surgery using FemtoLASIK technology leads to a decrease in the rigidity of the cornea, and therefore to a reduction in its framework properties. Key words: refractive surgery, FemtoLASIK, myopia, laser correction, biomechanical properties of the cornea, Oculus CORVIS ST ®.

Purpose: To investigate the impact of diabetes mellitus–induced changes on intraocular pressure measurements using Goldmann applanation tonometry, Ocular Response Analyzer, and Corvis ST. Methods: Measurements were done using Goldmann applanation tonometry, Ocular Response Analyzer, and Corvis ST in 69 diabetic patients. Biomechanical-corrected intraocular pressure values by Ocular Response Analyzer (IOPcc) and Corvis ST (bIOP) were used. In addition, biometry and tomography were performed and information on diabetes mellitus specific factors was collected. Results were compared to an age-matched group of 68 healthy subjects. Results: In diabetes mellitus, Goldmann applanation tonometry intraocular pressure (P = 0.193) and central corneal thickness (P = 0.184) were slightly increased. Also, IOPcc (P = 0.075) and bIOP (P = 0.542) showed no significant group difference. In both groups, IOPcc was higher than Goldmann applanation tonometry intraocular pressure (P = 0.002, P < 0.001), while bIOP was nearly equal to Goldmann applanation tonometry intraocular pressure (P = 0.795, P = 0.323). Central corneal thickness showed a tendency to higher values in poorly controlled than in controlled diabetes mellitus (P = 0.059). Goldmann applanation tonometry intraocular pressure correlated to central corneal thickness, while IOPcc and bIOP were independent from central corneal thickness in both groups. All intraocular pressure values showed significant associations to corneal biomechanical parameters. Only in diabetes mellitus, bIOP was correlated to Pachy slope (P = 0.023). Conclusion: In diabetes mellitus, Goldmann applanation tonometry intraocular pressure was slightly, but not significantly, increased, which might be caused by a higher central corneal thickness and changes in corneal biomechanical properties. However, intraocular pressure values measured by Ocular Response Analyzer and Corvis ST were not significantly different between diabetes mellitus patients and healthy subjects. The bIOP showed a higher agreement with Goldmann applanation tonometry than IOPcc and was independent from central corneal thickness.

Purpose. To compare intraocular pressure (IOP) measurements with Goldmann applanation tonometry (GAT), ocular response analyzer (ORA), dynamic contour tonometer (DCT), and Corvis ST (CST) in healthy subjects. Methods. In a prospective, observational study, IOP measurements with GAT (GAT-IOPc), ORA (IOPcc), DCT (DCT-IOP), and CST (bIOP) were performed and analyzed in 94 healthy subjects. Results. Mean age of the participants was 45.6 ± 17.2 years (range 18 to 81 years). Mean GAT-IOPc was 12.9 ± 2.4 mmHg, mean DCT-IOP was 16.1 ± 2.6 mmHg, and mean IOPcc was 15.6 ± 3.3 mmHg. DCT-IOP and IOPcc were significantly higher than GAT-IOPc (P<0.001). Mean bIOP was 13.5 ± 2.4 mmHg that was slightly higher but not significantly different from GAT-IOPc (P=0.146). Correlation analysis of IOP values and central corneal thickness (CCT) revealed a negative correlation between GAT-IOPc and CCT (r = −0.347; P=0.001). However, IOPcc, DCT-IOP, and bIOP showed no significant correlation to CCT. Only bIOP revealed a weak but significant age dependency (r = 0.321, P=0.002). Conclusion. All tonometry devices showed a good agreement of biomechanical corrected IOP values with GAT-IOPc. As no influence of CCT on IOPcc, DCT-IOP, and bIOP was detectable, the used correction algorithms appear to be appropriate in these tonometers in the clinical setting. The highest agreement was found between GAT-IOPc and bIOP. However, bIOP weakly correlated with participants’ age. Further studies are needed to elucidate the role of bIOP for IOP measurement.

Abstract Background Accurate measurement of intraocular pressure (IOP) after corneal refractive surgery is of great significance to clinic, and comparisons among various IOP measuring instruments are not rare, but there is a lack of unified analysis. Although Goldmann Applanation Tonometer (GAT) is currently the internationally recognized gold standard for IOP measurement, its results are severely affected by central corneal thickness (CCT). Ocular Response Analyzer (ORA) takes certain biomechanical properties of cornea into account and is supposed to be less dependent of CCT. In this study, we conducted the meta-analysis to systematically assess the differences and similarities of IOP values measured by ORA and GAT in patients after corneal refractive surgery from the perspective of evidence-based medicine. Methods The authors searched electronic databases (MEDLINE, EMBASE, Web of science, Cochrane library and Chinese electronic databases of CNKI and Wanfang) from Jan. 2005 to Jan. 2019, studies describing IOP comparisons measured by GAT and ORA after corneal refractive surgery were included. Quality assessment, subgroup analysis, meta-regression analysis and publication bias analysis were applied in succession. Results Among the 273 literatures initially retrieved, 8 literatures (13 groups of data) with a total of 724 eyes were included in the meta-analysis, and all of which were English literatures. In the pooled analysis, the weighted mean difference (WMD) between IOPcc and IOPGAT was 2.67 mmHg (95% CI: 2.20~3.14 mmHg, p < 0.0001), the WMD between IOPg and IOPGAT was − 0.27 mmHg (95% CI: − 0.70~0.16 mmHg, p = 0.2174). In the subgroup analysis of postoperative IOPcc and IOPGAT, the heterogeneity among the data on surgical procedure was zero, while the heterogeneity of other subgroups was still more than 50%. The comparison of the mean difference of pre- and post-operative IOP (∆IOP) was: mean-∆IOPg > mean-∆IOPGAT > mean-∆IOPcc. Conclusions IOPcc, which is less dependent on CCT, may be more close to the true IOP after corneal refractive surgery compared with IOPg and IOPGAT, and the recovery of IOPcc after corneal surface refractive surgery may be more stable than that after lamellar refractive surgery.

Abstract Background: To compare intraocular pressure (IOP) measurements by a dynamic Scheimpflug analyzer (Corvis ST), a non-contact tonometer, and the ocular response analyzer following hyperopic small-incision lenticule extraction (SMILE).Methods: Thirteen patients underwent hyperopic SMILE in one eye each were prospectively enrolled. IOP and corneal biomechanical parameters were measured preoperatively and 1 week, 1 month, and 3 months after surgery with a non-contact tonometer (IOPNCT), Corvis ST (biomechanical corrected IOP, bIOP), and the ocular response analyzer (Goldmann-correlated intraocular pressure [IOPg], cornea compensated IOP [IOPcc]). A linear mixed model was used to compare IOP and biomechanical values among the methods at each time point.Results: IOPNCT, IOPg, and IOPcc dropped significantly after surgery, with the amplitude being 3.15±0.48 mmHg, 5.49±0.94 mmHg, and 4.34±0.97 mmHg, respectively, at the last visit. IOPNCT decreased by 0.11±0.06 mmHg per µm of removed central corneal thickness. bIOP did not change significantly after surgery. Before surgery, no difference was found among the measurements (P> 0.05). After surgery, IOPNCT and bIOP were higher than IOPg and IOPcc. bIOP is independent of cornea thickness at the last visit, while correlated significantly with corneal biomechanics as other three IOP values did.Conclusion: bIOP (biomechanical corrected IOP as measured with the Corvis ST) seems to be an accurate parameter to measure IOP after hyperopic SMILE.

Purpose. To evaluate the corneal biomechanical properties using the CORVIS ST device (Oculus, Germany) in patients with myopia and myopic astigmatism with intact cornea as well as in patients with myopia and myopic astigmatism who underwent excimer laser refractive surgery using femtolaser or microkeratome. Material and methods. Totally the study included 65 patients aged 18 years to 56 years with myopia and myopic astigmatism of various degrees were examined. They were scheduled for excimer laser refractive surgery after laser refractive surgery in different periods from 5 days to 5 years. Among the additional methods of examination, all patients were measured the biomechanical properties of the cornea using a CORVIS ST device (Oculus, Germany). Results. After excimer laser refractive surgery performing for myopia and myopic astigmatism correction, indicators of the corneal biomechanical properties, namely indicators describing stiffness and elasticity were changed, as well as IOP indicators. Conclusion. The biomechanical properties of the cornea, such as stiffness and elasticity, can be assessed using the CORVIS ST device (Oculus, Germany). After excimer laser vision correction of myopia and myopic astigmatism, corneal stiffness and elasticity decreases. IOP value in patients after excimer laser correction of myopia and myopic astigmatism decreases. It is associated with a decrease in corneal thickness but is not associated with a true decrease in IOP. Key words: biomechanical properties of the cornea, refractive surgery, excimer laser vision correction, femtolaser vision correction, myopia, myopic astigmatism.
