ABSTRACT
Objective To evaluate the effectiveness of orthokeratology (Ortho-k) in treatment of myopia. Method Using Better Vision Contact lenses to treat 98 patients with myopia(192 eyes). The visual, the diopter of myopia and the corneal curvature were observed.Results Three monthes after treatment the myopia degree was reduced by-5 75D,astigmatism with rale was decreased by-2 75D,respectively,96 47% of low myopia (≤-3 00D),64 49% moderate-high myopia (-3 00D～-7 25D) were recovered to emmetropia. A positive correlation was found between the spherical equivalent and the corneal curvature (?=0 993,P
ABSTRACT
ObjectiveTo evaluate the diagnosis of blue-on-yellow perimetry and macular threshold perimetry in early primary glaucoma. MethodsHumphrey Ⅱ-750 automatic perimetry was used to test 60 eyes of 60 cases in normal control group and 63 eyes of 63 cases in early primary glaucoma group with white-on-white perimetry (W/W), blue-on-yellow perimetry (B/Y), and macular threshold perimetry (MTP). The results of the visual field defects detected by the three perimetries were compared and analyzed.ResultsThe differences of mean sensibility of W/W, B/Y and MTP between the two groups had statistical significance [t=-3.01, P=0.005 4 (W/W); t=-2.95, P=0.006 3 (B/Y); t=-2.59,P=0.015 0 (MTP)]. In the diagnosis of early primary glaucoma, the sensitivity of MTP was the highest (83%), B/Y was the second (65%), and W/W was the lowest (48%). When B/Y and MTP were combined, the sensitivity was improved to 94% using parallel testing, and the specificity was improved to 87% using serial testing. ConclusionsB/Y and MTP are valuable in diagnosis of early primary glaucoma, and the sensitivity and specificity of the diagnosis can be improved when B/Y and MTP are combined.
