Abstract

Purpose: To investigate the effect of artificial tears on refraction. Methods: Fourty-five volunteer patients selected randomly from "GATA Haydarpaşa Teaching Hospital Ophthalmology Outpatient Center" were included in the study. Disposable artificial tears were instilled in one eye of each patient after recording their initial autorefractometer readings. At 5, 15, 30, 40 and 60 minutes after the initial instillation, additional autorefractometer examinations were done for both eyes. Changes in refraction at each 5, 15, 30, 40 and 60 minutes were analyzed with Wilcoxon test, accepting p

Özet

Amaç: Yapay gözyaşının refraksiyon üzerine etkisini araştırmak. Yöntem: "GATA Haydarpaşa Eğitim Hastanesi Göz Polikliniği'ne başvuran hastalardan 45 gönüllü hasta, gelişigüzel seçilerek çalışmaya dahil edildi. Hastaların ilk refraksiyonları otorefraktometre ile ölçüldükten sonra, her hastanın bir gözüne tek kullanımlık yapay gözyaşı damlatılarak, 5, 15, 30, 40 ve 60. dakikalarda her iki gözün refraksiyonları otorefraktometre ile tekrar ölçüldü. Beş, 15, 30, 40 ve 60. dakikalardaki refraksiyon değişiklikleri Wilcoxon testi ile analiz edildi ve p
