The Effect of Eyelid Laxity on Corneal Mapping and Corneal Topography.

Purpose: To evaluate the effect of eyelid laxity on the structure of the cornea.

Methods: This was a retrospective study performed in one institution. Patients with and without upper and lower eyelid laxity, which were determined using the snap-back test (SBT) and the upper eyelid distraction test (LDT), were evaluated for corneal structural changes with Scheimpflug imaging corneal tomography for the keratometric readings, and cor-neal spectral domain optical coherence tomography for the epithelial thickness (ET) measurements.

Evaluation of scleral-fixated intraocular lens position anomalies by anterior segment optical coherence tomography.

Background/aim: To measure the positions of scleral-fixated intraocular lenses (IOLs) using anterior segment optical coherence tomography (OCT) and to evaluate the influence of the position of scleral-fixated IOL on the quality of vision.

Materials And Methods: Twenty-six eyes of 26 patients were included in the study. The average age was 57.

Corneal biomechanical properties of patients with acromegaly.

Purpose: Growth hormone (GH) and insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) excess in acromegaly have various effects on many organs. The ophthalmologic effects of GH and IGF-1 excess have not yet been investigated in detail. The aim of the current study is to compare the corneal biomechanical properties of patients with acromegaly and those of healthy subjects.
