Abstract

Purpose: To evaluate the relationship between corneal biomechanical properties and parameters of optic nerve head in healthy subjects Materials and Methods: Forty-six eyes of 46 subjects were enrolled in this study. Central corneal thickness measured with ultrasonic pachymetry, corneal biomechanical properties measured with ocular response analyzer, and optic nerve parameters measured with optic cohorence tomography were obtained from all subjects. The relationship between corneal biomechanical parameters and optic nerve head parameters were evaluated with Pearson's correlation test. Results: Mean age of 32 female and 14 male was 56.8±9.1 years. No significant relationship was found between corneal biomechanical properties such corneal hysteresis and optic nerve head parameters such as disc area, rim area, rim volume, cup area, cup volume, and cup to disc ratio (p>0.05). Also, there is not significant correlation between CCT and optic nerve head parameters (p>0.05). Conclusions: The corneal biomechanical properties is not significantly correlated with the optic nerve head parameters in healthy subjects.

Özet

Amaç: Sağlıklı olgularda kornea biyomekanik özellikleri ile optik sinir başı parametreleri arasındaki ilişkiyi değerlendirmek. Gereç ve Yöntem: Çalışma kapsamına 46 sağlıklı hastanın 46 gözü alındı. Tüm olgulara detaylı oftalmolojik muayene yapıldı. Tüm olguların ultrasonik biyomikroskopi ile elde edilmiş santral kornea kalınlık (SKK) ölçümü, Oküler cevap analizörü ile ölçülmüş korneal biyomekanik özellikleri ve Optik kohorens tomografi ile ölçülmüş optik sinir başı parametreleri elde edildi. Korneal biyomekanik özellikler ile optik sinir başı parametreleri arasındaki ilişki Pearson korelasyon testi kullanılarak değerlendirildi. Bulgular: Otuz iki kadın ve 14 erkek olgunun yaş ortalaması 56.8±9.1 idi. Olgular korneal histerezis, korneal rezistans faktör gibi korneal biyomekanik özellikleri ile ve cup-disk oranı, rim alanı, rim hacmi, çukurluk alanı, çukurluk hacmi, optik sinir başı alanı gibi optik disk başı parametreleri arasında istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bir ilişki bulunmadı (p>0.05). Ayrıca, SKK ile optik sinir başı parametreleri arasında da anlamlı bir ilişki yoktu (p>0.05). Sonuç: Normal olgularda korneal biyomekanik özellikler optik sinir başı parametreleri ile anlamlı bir ilişki göstermemektedir.
