Abstract

It is essential for radial keratotomy surgery to determine corneal thickness preoperatively because appropriate incisional depth plays essential role in the effectiveness of surgery and prevention of corneal perforation. Any change in corneal thickness after RK will influence on selecting incisional depth for repeated surgery. Also relationship between changes in corneal thickness and age, sex and the interval between the operations is important. This research has been performed to address these problems.Medical records of 200 patients (101 males & 99 females) which were operated in Isfahan Farabi Hospital in 1995-1998, were studied. The informations were recorded in the information assembly tables including sex, age, interval between the operations and corneal thickness before and after surgery at 5 standard points. Then statistical tests were performed. The results are as bellow:Average of change in corneal thickness were: Central point 10.96±13.8 micron (2%); Superior point 6.82±29.8 micron (1.34%); Inferior point 9.01±28.8 micron (1.77%); Temporal point 12.1±26.4 micron (2.34%); Nasal point 5.14±34.4 micron (1.13%) Therefore corneal thickness was increased after RK surgery and it is important in repeated surgery for eye surgeon. These changes in corneal thickness at 5 standard points are related to sex with a confidence of level of 95% and in females were more. The changes of corneal thickness at 5 standard points are related to age and interval of operation with a confidence of 35%.
