PURPOSE: To point out the biomechanical changes of the topographically and tomographically normal partner eye (NPE) in patients with very asymmetrical corneal ectasia.
SETTING: Department of Ophthalmology, Saarland University Medical Center in Homburg/Saar, Germany.
DESIGN: Retrospective study.
METHODS: The topographical and tomographical results of the NPE were assessed using the Pentacam HR and the biomechanical corneal properties using the Ocular Response Analyzer (keratoconus match index [KMI], corneal hysteresis [CH], and corneal resistance factor [CRF]) and the Corvis ST (topographic biomechanical index [TBI] and Corvis biomechanical index) and compared those results with a normal control group (CG).
RESULTS: The clinical records of 26 patients recruited from the Homburg Keratoconus Center diagnosed with a very asymmetrical corneal ectasia were reviewed. The NPE (8.5 ± 1.5 mm Hg) showed a significantly more pathological CH (P < .001) compared with the CG. The CRF was also significantly more pathological (P = .04) for the NPE (8.3 ± 1.5 mm Hg) compared with the CG. The NPE (0.62 ± 0.32) showed a nonsignificant (P = .08) more pathological KMI compared with the CG. Nineteen (73.1%) of 26 NPE had a KMI less than 0.72 and were considered pathological. Compared with the CG, the TBI of the NPE (0.19 ± 0.25) did not differ significantly overall (P = .57). However, 5 (19.2%) of 26 eyes had a TBI more than 0.29 and were considered pathological.
CONCLUSIONS: Topographically and tomographically NPEs in very asymmetrical corneal ectasia frequently showed biomechanical changes. This should be considered before planning any type of refractive corneal surgery in such patients.
