Optical Characteristics of Myopic Corrections by Orthokeratological Contact Lenses Journal > /en/journal/2017/1/3
Introduction: Orthokeratology lenses present a special type of hard contact lenses, which is used especially for myopic correction. The lenses are applied during the night, when thanks to their special shape cause temporally (reversible) change of the cornea shape. During the day, there is not necessary to wear any other refractive correction. Due to the wearing regimen, there is, comparing to the...
The Influence of the Cornea of Intraocular Pressure Measurement by ICARE PRO and ORA Journal > /en/journal/2019/3/1
Aim: To compare intraocular pressure readings (IOP) measured by ICARE PRO and ORA G3 and analyse the influence of the corneal hysteresis (CH), central corneal thickness (CCT), average central corneal radius, corneal astigmatism and age on the readings. In addition, to compare the repeatability of measurement by both tonometers.Methods: The data was collected by IOP measurements in both eyes in 40 ...
Effect of Acute Hydrogen-Rich Water Intake on Intraocular Pressure in Healthy Subjects Journal > /en/journal/2023/4/3
Purposes: The primary aim of the study was to assess the response of intraocular pressure (IOP) to the acute ingestion of hydrogen-rich water (HRW) compared to hydrogen-free water (placebo) in healthy subjects. The effect of HRW intake on central corneal thickness (CCT) was also monitored. Subjects and Methods: Twenty-four healthy volunteers (5 men, 19 women) aged between 20 and 33 were included i...
