Abstract

Purpose: This study was conducted to assess the effect of CORNEAL CROSS-LINKING on tear film osmolarity in patients with progressive KERATOCONUS using the TearLab device.Methods: 66 eyes of 66 patients including 40 men and 26 women with age range of 15 to 35 years old with progressive KERATOCONUS who were candidates for CORNEAL CROSS-LINKING surgery, were evaluated in this prospective study. These indicated patients for CORNEAL CROSS-LINKING surgery had no history of eye or systemic disease associated with ocular manifestations. They hadn’ t worn contact lenses since 3 weeks before study and also they hadn’ t used drugs (effective on tear layer) or contact lenses for 6 months after surgery except their treatment period. TEAR OSMOLARITY was measured preoperatively and 6 months after surgery using the TearLab device. After all, data analysis was performed by descriptive and analytical statistical methods.Results: The mean Osmolarity before the CORNEAL CROSS-LINKING surgery is 303.82±15.50 mOsm/L and after the surgery is 306.64±14.49 mOsm/L. There is no significant difference in tear film Osmolarity before and after the CORNEAL CROSS-LINKING (P=0.192).Conclusion: CORNEAL CROSS-LINKING had no significant impact on tear film osmolarity in progressive KERATOCONUS patients and we can’t consider dry eye as a side effect of CORNEAL CROSS-LINKING.
