PURPOSE: To determine the total corneal refractive power in 1-8 mm corneal zones and the 8 mm Q-value in non-keratoconic patients with Down syndrome and normal subjects aged 10-30 years.
METHODS: Right eye data from 203 Down syndrome patients (mean ± standard deviation age: 17.0 ± 4.7 years) and 189 age- and gender-matched normal subjects (17.1 ± 4.5 years) were compared. Main extracted Pentacam indices were total corneal refractive power in steep and flat axes, and mean and difference (corneal astigmatism) total corneal refractive power in 1-8 mm zones.
RESULTS: Mean total corneal refractive power in 1-8 mm zones was 45.17-45.74 D and 42.91-43.52 D in Down and normal group, respectively (all p < 0.001). The coefficients of variation of total corneal refractive power from the center to the periphery were similar in the two groups (p = 0.855). None of the mean total corneal refractive powers significantly correlated with age, and all of them were significantly higher in females (p < 0.001). Mean total corneal refractive power-based corneal astigmatism in these zones changed from 1.46 to 1.66 D in Down syndrome patients and 1.64 to 1.99 D in normal group. All corneal astigmatism indices were similar between two groups (all p > 0.05). The prevalence of against the rule and oblique astigmatism in all zones were higher in the Down syndrome group (all p < 0.05).
CONCLUSION: Adolescent and young non-keratoconic patients with Down syndrome have a more prolate cornea and a homogeneous keratometry distribution. In this population, females have a steeper cornea.
