Abstract

Objective: Investigating the relationship of intraocular pressure values of normal individuals with different central corneal thickness (CCT) by values obtained with Goldmann applanation tonometer (GAT) and non-contact pneumotonometer (NCT) Material and Method: One hundred seventy eyes of 85 patients without any ocular pathology in ophthalmologic examination were enrolled in the study. Complete eye examinations were performed. Intraocular pressure measurements were performed by three different investigators. Pachymetry, ICare tonometer, NCT and GAT measurements were performed respectively. For each different device measurements were repeated 3 times and the arithmetic mean was obtained. Differences between methods of measurement were assessed by One-Way ANOVA test. The relationships between groups were assessed by Pearson's correlation analysis. The distribution of the difference between IOP was assessed by Blant-Altman analysis. Results: Lowest values of IOP were obtained with GAT, then respectively ICare and NCT gave higher measurements. After comparison of different methods of IOP measurements, statistically significant differences was observed between the groups (p

Özet

Amaç: Farklı santral korneal kalınlığı (SKK) olan normal bireylerde, ICare tonometre ile elde edilen göziçi basınç (GİB) değerleri ile Goldmann aplanasyon tonometresi (GAT) ve non-kontakt pnömotonometre (NKT) ile elde edilen göz içi basınç değerleri arasındaki ilişkiyi araştırmak. Gereç ve Yöntem: Göz muayenesinde oküler patolojisi olmayan 85 hastanın 170 gözü çalışmaya alındı. Hastaların tam göz muayeneleri yapıldı. Göz içi basınç ölçümleri üç farklı araştırmacı tarafından yapıldı. Ölçümler sırasıyla pakimetre, ICare tonometresi, NKT ve GAT ile yapıldı. Her bir farklı cihazın ölçümleri 3 kez tekrarlandı ve aritmetik ortalamaları alındı. Ölçüm metodları arasındaki anlamlılık One-WayAnova testi ile değerlendirildi. Gruplar arası ilişki Pearson korelasyon analizi ile değerlendirildi. Ölçüm yöntemleri arasındaki GİB farklarının dağılımı ise Blant-Altman analizi ile gösterildi. Bulgular: Göz içi basınç ölçümlerinde rakamsal olarak en düşük değerler GAT ölçümleri ile daha sonra NKT ölçümleri ve en yüksek olarak da ICare tonometre ölçümleri ile elde edildi. Farklı göz içi basınç ölçüm yöntemlerinin karşılaştırılmasında gruplar arasın da istatistiksel olarak anlamlı farklılıklar olduğu tespit edildi (p
