“…Additional segments of the GPES focused on corneal aberrations and corneal thickness in adults with a history of prematurity. 22,23 The study focusing on corneal aberrations used Scheimpflug imaging to assess the corneas of 444 eyes of 256 individuals born preterm and 231 eyes of 132 individuals born full-term. 22 There were statistically significant associations between higher order aberrations (e.g., coma, trefoil, spherical aberration) and lower birth weight percentile and ROP treatment as well as between lower order aberrations (e.g., positive defocus (myopia), negative defocus (hyperopia), astigmatism) and lower birth weight percentile and ROP treatment.…”

“…25 Another study within the GPES used Scheimpflug imaging to measure corneal thickness in 754 eyes of 390 participants now ages 18-52. 23 Participants were divided according to GA and ROP status. 23 Interestingly, GA, ROP occurrence, and ROP treatment did not statistically significantly affect corneal thickness in this cohort, but lower birth weight percentile was associated with lesser corneal thickness at the apex and in the pupillary axis; this effect diminished towards the periphery.…”
