No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Twenty-four consecutive patients with Hemifacial spasm and 25 age and gender-matched randomly selected eyes of healthy volunteers underwent corneal pachymetry and intraocular pressure measurements using Goldmann Applanation Tonometer and non-contact tonometer. An interval of 15 minutes was maintained between Goldmann Applanation Tonometer and non-contact tonometer measurements. Intraocular pressure measurements were performed before (during hemifacial spasm) and 2 weeks after Botox injections in Hemifacial spasm patients and in healthy volunteers without Botox injections. All the measurements with Goldmann Applanation Tonometer were carried out by a single physician while those with the non-contact tonometer were done by another physician who was masked to the results of the Goldmann Applanation Tonometer. All measurements were taken between 10:00 and 11:00 a.m.
