ABSTRACT
PURPOSE:
To report a case of refractive change with intraocular pressure change following trauma.METHODS:
Changes in intraocular pressure, refractive power, lens thickness, depth of anterior chamber, and axial length of an 8-year-old girl were measured.RESULTS:
During the early period after trauma, the patient showed low intraocular pressure and shallow anterior chamber depth. The refractive power changed to transient high myopia. With temporary high intraocular pressure, the refractive power changed to hyperopia and the refractive power recovered toward emmetropia as the intraocular pressure fell to the normal level. Refractive alteration is a result of changes in intraocular pressure and depth of the anterior chamber by cyclodialysis cleft and its adhesion is induced by trauma to the eye. Herein, the authors show evidence for a relationship between refractive change and posttraumatic ocular change.
