“…This may explain the findings that mean CCT is thinner in patients with normal tension glaucoma compared with those having POAG, 6,7 and thicker in patients with OHT. 8,9 These findings are replicated among different racial groups. 10 In addition, in a multivariate analysis of baseline factors predicting the conversion of OHT into POAG within OHTS, CCT was retained as a risk factor independent of its relationship with IOP.…”

“…Conforme a tabela 3, a Espessura Central Corneana (ECC) no grupo GPN (GPN) teve uma média de 500,95 µm Po -Pressão intra-ocular; GPN -Glaucoma de pressão normal; GCS -Glaucoma crônico simples 33µm) (6) . Nestes três últimos artigos citados os autores utilizaram o paquímetro ultra-sônico.…”

“…O tonômetro de aplanação de Goldmann mede a Po registrando a força necessária para achatar o ápice corneano, e baseia-se na lei de Imbert-Fick a qual defende que a superfície corneana é perfeitamente elástica e fina, não oferecendo força adicional alguma à aplanação além da pressão interna do globo ocular (4)(5)(6) . Entretanto ao usar este aparelho estamos sujeitos a alguns erros (3) .…”
