OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the change of corneal epithelial thickness (ET) in subjects using isotretinoin with spectral-domain optical coherence tomography and further to explore reflection of changes on corneal topography.
METHODS: Forty eyes of 40 subjects with acne vulgaris scheduled for oral isotretinoin were included in this prospective study. Subjects were examined with RTVue-XR and Pentacam at baseline, 1th, 3rd, and 6th months of treatment, and 3rd month of isotretinoin cessation.
RESULTS: A statistically significant increase was detected in each sector of ET map except inferonasal 7 to 9 mm between baseline and following visits (P<0.05, for all visits). The increase in superior (2-7 mm), inferior (2-7 mm), and maximum values in epithelium statistics and the decrease in superior (2-7 mm), inferior (2-7 mm), minimum, and maximum values in stroma statistics at follow-up visits were significant (P<0.05, for all visits). Central corneal thickness, maximum Ambrosio-relational thickness, average pachymetric-progression index at 1th, 3rd, and 6th months, and thinnest pachymetry, index of surface variance (ISV) at 3rd, and 6th months differed significantly (P<0.05, for specified visits). The regression in parameters was observed at 3rd month of isotretinoin cessation.
CONCLUSIONS: Isotretinoin treatment induces epithelial thickening and stromal thinning. Remodeling of corneal layers causes statistical differences in ISV and pachymetry-related parameters of Pentacam. The pachymetry changes in cornea return to baseline at the 3rd month of discontinuation of treatment.
