“…40 Similarly, DCT measurements were not significantly correlated with CCT (P = 0.36) with an average increase in IOP by 0.8 mm Hg for a 100 mm increase in CCT, which is compatible with earlier studies reporting a low effect of CCT on DCT-IOP measurements. 31,42 Following a period in which attention has been limited to CCT, there is now growing appreciation that it is corneal stiffness, more than the parameters affecting it such as CCT, that should be considered when improving accuracy of IOP measurement. 6,13 Corneal stiffness is influenced by both geometric parameters (eg, thickness, curvature, diameter, and astigmatism) and material parameters (which vary with age and medical history).…”

“…7 Sáenz-Francés ve ark.nın yaptığı bir çalışmaya göre, GAT ölçüm sonuçları SKK'den etkilenirken, PDKT öl-çümlerinin kornea morfometresinden bağımsız olduğu saptanmıştır. 8 GAT'ın kalibrasyonunda standart bir SKK (520 µm) kabul edilmektedir. 4 Ehlers ve ark., 520 µm'lik değerden her 10 µm'lik sapmanın 0,7 mmHg'lik bir yanlış ölçmeye neden olabileceğini hesaplamışlardır.…”

“…Its function is better described by the Pascal principle, referring to an equality of pressures acting on the anterior corneal surface at the time of measurement: where ‘IOP’ is the actual aqueous pressure, ‘r’ refers to OR, ‘c’ to capillary attraction and ‘ap’ to a potential appositional element 34 . Several previous studies have examined the differences between DCT and GAT measurements in various clinical situations 9,31,35–38 . Although on the average the former yields slightly higher IOP readings than the latter 9,31 (1.5–1.7 mmHg), an increased disparity in IOP readings between GAT and DCT has been reported in situations such as a very high or very low central corneal thickness value 31 in glaucomatous eyes under latanoprost treatment 9 or in pseudoexfoliation syndrome 35 .…”
