Summary

Aim

Physiological changes in intraocular pressure as well as in the cornea and macula may occur during pregnancy.

In the literature, there are limited data on ocular findings in hyperemesis gravidarum. Therefore, we have decided to investigate the effect of hyperemesis gravidarum on macular thickness, corneal thickness and intraocular pressure (IOP).

Conditions

  • Corneal Dystrophy
  • Macular Dystrophy
  • Hyperemesis Gravidarum - Severe

Interventions

DIAGNOSTIC_TEST

Optic coherence tomography

Every participant was subjected to a comprehensive ophthalmologic examination which included measuring auto-refraction (average of three values, Topcon Autorefractometer model KM 8900, Japan), uncorrected visual acuity with cycloplegic refraction (with 0.5% cyclopentolate HCl), and IOP in millimeters of mercury (mmHg, Goldmann applanation tonometer). Moreover, slit-lamp biomicroscopy (HaagStreit, Bern, Switzerland) was performed, concentrating on potential corneal scarring and/or lenticular opacities.
