  • Purpose. Scheduled calibration of refractive error's have various refractive surgery, and a side effect of post refractive surgery for refractive errors's before refractive surgery, by analyzing the eye condition of the refractive error's good state, it tries to increase the satisfaction of refractive error's refractive surgery. Methods. In response to 60 people preoperative data 20-30 generations of age, were analyzed for eye conditions. Results. IOP, thickness of the cornea, liquid leakage amount inspection, the corneal endothelium inspection, the size of the pupil, have been conducted auto refraction test and showed a numerical value in most normal range. Conclusion. Surgery can be of individual differences of patients, it is difficult to define the full normal range, to the surgery based on the case of this study, the side effects of patients after surgery is expected to be prevention.

  • Rabbit's cornea is the most common thing that used for researches in ophthalmology, so many experimentations have done. The purpose of this study was to survey the corneal pachymetry, tonometry and specular microscopy in New Zealand white rabbits. Three months old male rabbits ($2.9{\pm}0.2\;kg$) were examined with contact the specular microscope to evaluate the endothelial cell density, coefficiency of variation and the percentage of hexagonal cells in the central cornea. For the pachymetry, ultrasonic pachymeter was used for central cornea in each twenty rabbits, and tonometry was performed forty rabbit's eyes to evaluate the intraocular pressure. Corneal endothelial cell density in New Zealand white rabbit was $3304{\pm}354\;cell/mm^2$. Coefficiency of variation was $45.8{\pm}2$ and the percentage of hexagonal cells in the central cornea was $44.4{\pm}11%$. The pachymetry of cornea was $346.1{\pm}21\;{\mu}m$ and tonometry of eye was $14.3{\pm}2\;mmHg$. It is considered that normal New Zealand white rabbit's pachymetry, specular microscopy and tonometry were useful basic data of rabbit's cornea for research and clinic in veterinary ophthalmology.

  • This study was conducted to measure the central corneal thickness(CTT) changes associated with kinds of wearing contact lens. The CCT was measured using ultrasonic pachymeter in three hundred four subjects in their 20s and 30s. Although the CCT of Group 1 who had never worn any kinds of contact lens had no differences between left and right eye as well as between genders, the CCT tended to become thinner depending on the increment in refractive error. In Group 2 wearing only soft contact lens, the CCT was thinner depending on wearing period, and subjects wearing for more than 10 years had significantly thin CCT comparing with subjects wearing for less than 4 years. There was no significant difference in the CCT between Group 3 wearing only RGP lens and Group 2 for less than 4 years. Furthermore, when comparing the CCT between the Group 2 and Group 4 changing to RGP lens after wearing soft contact lens, there was no statistically significant change in the CCT. However, the CCT was significantly thinner in Group 5 changing to soft contact lens after wearing PMMA(polymethyl methacrylate) hard lens compared with Group 2.
