BACKGROUND: To demonstrate that the Corvis ST could be used to quantify the biomechanical parameters of the orbital soft tissues by measuring and comparing whole eye movement (WEM) using the Corvis in normal eyes and in eyes of patients with Graves ophthalmopathy.
METHODS: Forty four eyes of 44 ophthalmologically normal subjects and 28 eyes of 28 patients with Graves ophthalmopathy were included in the study. After Corvis test, the examiners recorded WEM by air puff. In the patients with Graves ophthalmopathy, the partial correlation coefficient adjusted for age and gender was calculated to analyze the correlation between exopthalmometry and WEM. Same analysis was repeated for the correlation between and the cross sectional area (%) of the extraocular muscles in the orbit CT and WEM.
RESULTS: WEM was 0.314 ± 0.083 mm in the normal subjects and 0.227 ± 0.079 mm in the Graves ophthalmopathy group (p = 0.000). The exophthalmometry was not significantly correlated with WEM after adjusting for age and gender (R = 0.083, p = 0.688). In the 21 Graves ophthalmopathy patients examined by orbit CT, after adjusting for age and gender, WEM significantly decreased as the cross sectional area (%) of the extraocular muscles in the orbit increased (R = - 0.461, p = 0.047).
CONCLUSIONS: WEM by Corvis could be used to quantify the biomechanical parameters of the orbital soft tissue. However, it is unclear whether WEM effectively represents the orbital biomechanical parameters, because WEM is only 0.6% of the orbital depth.
