Özet
PurposeTo investigate the effect of short-term brinzolamide application on human central corneal thickness (CCT).MethodsSeventeen eyes of 16 patients who underwent neodymium:YAG laser posterior capsulotomy were included in the study group. Twenty-two subjects served as controls. Brinzolamide twice daily and fluorometholone four times daily were initiated after the procedure. Corneal thickness was evaluated with an ultrasound pachymetry from the central region. CCT measurements were performed before the procedure, at first day, and at the end of first week.ResultsThe mean baseline CCT value was 535.1±37.8 μm. In comparison to the control group (546.4±22.2 μm), there was no statistically significant difference (p=0.248). After brinzolamide instillation, the mean CCT values at first day and at first week was measured as 545.1±40.1 μm and 538.8±39.4 μm, respectively. The difference at first day was …
